The Glaucophyta is one of the three major lineages of photosynthetic eukaryotes, together with viridiplants and red algae, united in the presumed monophyletic supergroup Archaeplastida.Glaucophytes constitute a key algal lineage to investigate both the origin of primary plastids and the evolution of algae and plants.Glaucophyte fr9938 plastids poss
Tenacibaculum is a genus of gram negative, marine, filamentous bacteria, associated with the presence of disease (tenacibaculosis) at aquaculture sites worldwide; however, infections induced by this genus are poorly characterized.Documents regarding the genus Tenacibaculum and close relatives were compiled for a literature review, concentrating on
The main aim of these studies was the characterisation and identification of orly purple nail polish lactic acid (LAB) bacteria isolated from untreated silage, and the effect of selected bacteria (inoculant was called Silko for maize) on ensiling of maize high-moisture grain.Four isolates of LAB (L1, L2, L3 and L4) were characterised by the use of
Background: Understanding how the elderly in developing countries spend their time has received little attention.Moreover, the potential of time use data to discern variation in activity patterns has not been fully realized by methods which use a mean added time approach.Objective: To uncover patterns of time use among the elderly (60 years and old
