ABSTRACT Soil microbes produce an immense diversity of metabolites, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which can shape the structure and function of microbial communities.VOCs mediate a multitude of microbe-microbe interactions, including antagonism.Despite their importance, the diversity and functional relevance of most microbial volatil
New Cretaceous antlion-like lacewings promote a phylogenetic reappraisal of the extinct myrmeleontoid family Babinskaiidae
Abstract Babinskaiidae is an extinct family of the lacewing superfamily Myrmeleontoidea, currently only recorded from the Cretaceous.The phylogenetic position of this family is elusive, with inconsistent inferences in previous studies.Here we report on three new genera and species of Babinskaiidae from the mid-Cretaceous Kachin amber of Myanmar, na
Large Common Plansets-4-Points Congruent Sets for Point Cloud Registration
Point cloud registration combines multiple point cloud data sets collected from different positions using the same or different devices to form a single point cloud within a single coordinate system.Point cloud registration is usually achieved through spatial transformations that align and merge multiple point clouds into a single globally consiste
Micromechanical Properties and Stress Measurements with Diffraction Methods
Diffraction methods are commonly Pencils used for the determination of the elastic lattice deformation and distortion from the displacement and broadening of the diffraction peak.These methods enable researchers to measure stresses and elastic properties of polycrystalline materials.The main advantages of diffraction methods are their non-destructi
Root Carbon Resources Determine Survival and Growth of Young Trees Under Long Drought in Combination With Fertilization
Current increases in not only the intensity and frequency but also the duration of drought events could affect the growth, physiology, and mortality Sofa Armchair of trees.We experimentally studied the effects of drought duration in combination with fertilization on leaf water potential, gas exchange, growth, tissue levels of non-structural carbohy
