ABSTRACT A new method for detecting chimeras and other anomalies within 16S rRNA
sequence records is presented. Using this method, we screened 1,399 sequences from 19 …

ABSTRACT A new computer program, called Mallard, is presented for screening entire 16S
rRNA gene libraries of up to 1,000 sequences for chimeras and other artifacts. Written in the …

Topics covered in the 27 chapters of this publication discuss relations between soil quality
and health of plants, animals and humans, farmer-based approaches to assessing soil …

In this study we use a thermodynamic framework to characterize the material and energy
resources used in manufacturing processes. The analysis and data span a wide range of …

This edition is not essentially different from the third edition (see 19: 3496) in general
organization and in fundamental concepts. Statistics have been brought up to date. The …

Yield differences among landscape positions have been attributed to soil erosion and
differences in plant‐available water, soil texture, bulk density, and surface soil thickness …

This note describes a simple technique, the Gamma (or Near Neighbour) test, which in many
cases can be used to considerably simplify the design process of constructing a smooth data …

The neuromodulator melatonin synchronizes circadian rhythms and related physiological
functions through the actions of two G-protein-coupled receptors: MT1 and MT2. Circadian …

The effects of heteroatom identity (Al 3+, Ga 3+, Fe 3+, or B 3+), concentration and location
on catalysis by MFI zeolites are examined and interpreted mechanistically using methanol …

Ensemble-averaged deprotonation energies (DPE) derived from periodic density functional
theory models are insensitive to the location of isolated Al atoms and associated protons …
