Record 9 2015-12-11

English

Subject field(s)
  • Genetics
CONT

Two decades of culture-independent studies have confirmed that microbial communities represent the most complex and concentrated pool of phylogenetic diversity on the planet. There remains a need for innovative molecular tools that can further our knowledge of microbial diversity and its functional implications. We present the method and application of serial analysis of ribosomal sequence tags(SARST) as a novel tool for elucidating complex microbial communities, such as those found in soils and sediments. Serial analysis of ribosomal sequence tags uses a series of enzymatic reactions to amplify and ligate ribosomal sequence tags(RSTs) from bacterial small subunit rRNA gene(SSU rDNA) V1-regions into concatemers that are cloned and sequenced.

Les techniques faisant partie du séquençage à haut débit comprennent l'analyse sériée d'étiquettes de séquences ribosomiques (SARST) et les plateformes de séquençage de la prochaine génération comme le pyroséquençage 454, l'Illumina et le séquençage par ligation (SOLiD). Ces méthodes génèrent des milliers de séquences, permettant une grosse couverture de la diversité bactérienne.

Subject field(s)
  • Plant Biology
DEF

A process of sexual reproduction consisting in the union of ova with pollen from the same flower.

OBS

Autogamy is sometimes referred to as self-pollination, but this is not a true [synonym of] autogamy. Precision requires that the term self-pollination be restricted to those plants that accomplish pollination without an external pollinator. Most autogamous plants need the intervention of pollinators to transfer the pollen from the anther to the stigma of the flower because they are unable to self-pollinate.

Record 12 2010-07-13

English

Subject field(s)
  • Aeronautical Engineering and Maintenance
CONT

Flight loads are not directly measured, but are determined through correlation with measured strains, pressures or accelerations. The load intensities and distributions derived from flight testing should be compared with those obtained from analytical methods. The uncertainties in both the flight testing measurements and subsequent correlation should be carefully considered and compared with the inherent assumptions and capabilities of the process used in analytic derivation of flight loads. Since in most cases the flight test points are not the limit design load conditions, new analytical load cases need to be generated to match the actual flight test data points.

OBS

flight load: term officially approved by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).

The Small Business Development Bond program that expired at the end of last year exempted financial institutions from tax on interest on loans for new investment or financial difficulty. In order to target available tax benefits to those small businesses most in need of assistance, the November 1981 budget confined the tax exemption to loans made to small businesses in financial difficulty. Eligibility was also extended to farmers, fishermen and other unincorporated businesses. This Small Business Bond tax provision continues.
