(2012)Background: Understanding the cellular mechanisms regulating axon degeneration and regeneration is crucial for developing treatments for nerve injury and neurodegenerative disease. In neurons, axon degeneration is distinct ...
-
(2011)Background: Feeding habits and dietary nutritional content may play a key role in pathogendependent foraging ecology, because mounting an effective immune response is costly for the host. Hypothesis: Since immune defence ...
-
(2012)The ability of a homochiral sulfinyl group at the dienophile to act as a remote stereocontrol inductor in the Diels-Alder reaction with cyclopentadiene has been evaluated. High pressure conditions were required for the ...
-
(2012)Reactivity prediction in the series of MPR 3 + fragments (M=Au, Ag, Cu; R=-H, -Me, -Ph) has been achieved at the ab initio (HF and MP2) and density functional theory (B3LYP and PBE) levels. We have used global and local ...
-
(2012)Native to South America, Alstroemeria flowers are known for their colourful tepals, and Alstroemeria hybrids are an important cut flower. However, in common with many commercial cut flowers, virtually all the commercial ...
-
(International Press of Boston, Inc., 2012)Zeta-regularized products Πmam are known not to commute with finite products, so one studies the discrepancy Fn given by exp(Fn) := {equation presented}. For a rather general class of products, associated to polynomials ...
-
(Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, Facultad de Agronomia e Ingenieria Forestal, 2011)The toppling of young trees considerably reduces the value of the first log in Pinus radiata plantations. Although wind is the main cause of toppling, the quality and type of plants, planting techniques, soil fertility and ...
-
(2012)Interspecies hybridisation frequently occurs when the distributional ranges of two closely-related species overlap after a period of geographic isolation. From a conservation perspective, such hybridisation events can incur ...
-
(Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, Facultad de Agronomia e Ingenieria Forestal, 2011)Habitat fragmentation can affect the morphological design of flying insects in different ways through changes in the costs and benefits of dispersal patterns. Larger wings should be favored if necessary resources are ...
-
(2011)Theory predicts that in more stressful environments, positive plant-plant interactions should be more important than negative ones. For instance, in arid and semiarid regions, amelioration of soil drought produced by the ...
-
(2012)Carrot is an important nutritional crop due to the high levels of pro-vitamin A carotenoids (β-carotene and, to a lower extent, α-carotene) that accumulate in its storage root during secondary growth. In this work we show ...
-
(Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, Facultad de Agronomia e Ingenieria Forestal, 2011)Semidalis kolbei occupies a significant area of south central Chile. However, it is necessary to determine and predict the occurrence of the insect at a given site. The aim of this research is to analyze the potential ...
-
(2012)The mistletoe Tristerix verticillatus (Loranthaceae) parasitizes within a small area of the Yerba Loca Nature Sanctuary near Santiago, Chile, three co-occurring hosts: Schinus montanus (Anacardiaceae), Fabiana imbricata ...
-
(Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, Facultad de Agronomia e Ingenieria Forestal, 2011)Heterozygote deficiencies in natural populations of outbreeding tree species are common and thought to be due mainly to biparental inbreeding. Inbreeding is believed to be caused by family structure within populations, a ...
-
(2012)In this paper, a new type of mathematical model to represent certain processes with impulsive dynamic behavior is introduced. The main assumption is that the next impulse time is determined by three fundamental elements: ...
-
(2012)This work reports a systematic study of the structural and electrical behavior of three ternary phases of the Ta xMo 1-xS 2 system (x = 0.55, 0.75 and 0.90) and their intercalation compounds resulting from both chemical ...
-
(Elsevier B.V., 2011)Model compounds are used to study the metallophilic attraction between gold and copper atoms. Ab initio calculations on dimers and tetramers in different distributions of the simplified units are analyzed. An attraction ...
-
(2012)Intramolecular charge transfer interaction between the electron donor and electro acceptor units within the polymeric structure and its optoelectronic properties were studied. The monomer, 9H-fluorene-2,7-dicarboxylic acid, ...
-
(2011)In the Altiplano of the Iquique Province, Chile, a study was carried out for the purpose of advancing in the knowledge of the soils in the zone, to determine the soil moisture and soil temperature regimes, and to establish ...
-
(2012)Phenotypic flexibility in metabolic rates allows organisms to reversibly adjust their energy flow to meet challenges imposed by a variable environment. In turn, the food habits hypothesis (FHH) predicts that species or ...
