Abstract Background Blochmannia are obligately intracellular bacterial mutualists of ants of the tribe Camponotini.Blochmannia perform key nutritional functions for the host, including synthesis of several essential amino acids.We used Illumina technology to sequence the genome of Blochmannia associated with Camponotus vafer.Results Although Blochm
The partitioning of soluble compounds of LNAPL in groundwater is the most common scenario of release of organic contaminants in aquifers.The efficiency of this process depends of several factors, the jolly joes grape candy main interfacial area LNAPL / water.In this work has been established and tested a preliminary conceptual model that includes t
BACKGROUND: Surgical samples have long been used as important subjects for cancer research.In accordance with an increase of neoadjuvant therapy, biopsy samples have recently become imperative for cancer transcriptome.On the other hand, both biopsy and surgical samples are available for expression profiling for predicting clinical outcome by adjuva

In extensive livestock production, high densities may inhibit regulation processes, maintaining high levels of intraspecific competition over time.During competition, individuals typically modify their behaviours, particularly feeding and bite rates, which can therefore be used as indicators of competition.Over eight consecutive seasons, we investi
