PHYLOGENY OF MALEAE (ROSACEAE) BASED ON COMPLETE CHLOROPLAST GENOMES SUPPORTS THE DISTINCTION OF ARIA, CHAMAEMESPILUS AND TORMINALIS AS SEPARATE GENERA, DIFFERENT FROM SORBUS SP.

Phylogeny of Maleae (Rosaceae) Based on Complete Chloroplast Genomes Supports the Distinction of Aria, Chamaemespilus and Torminalis as Separate Genera, Different from Sorbus sp.

Several genera formerly contained within the genus Sorbus L.sensu lato have been proposed as separate taxa, including Aria, Chamaemespilus and Torminalis.However, molecular evidence for such distinctions are rather scarce.We assembled the complete chloroplast genome of Sorbus aucuparia, another representative of Sorbus s.s., Socks and performed det

A Sensing-Based Visualization Method for Representing Pressure Distribution in a Multi-Zone Building by Floor

Airflow in a multi-zone building can be a major cause of pollutant transfer, excessive energy consumption, and occupants discomfort.The key to monitoring airflows and mitigating related problems is to obtain a comprehensive understanding of pressure relationships within the buildings.This study proposes a visualization method for representing press

The Mucosal Immune System of Teleost Fish

Teleost fish possess an adaptive immune system associated with each of their mucosal body surfaces.Evidence obtained from mucosal vaccination and mucosal infection studies reveal that adaptive immune responses take place at the different mucosal surfaces of teleost.The main mucosa-associated lymphoid tissues (MALT) of teleosts are the gut-associate
