Abstract Background Chromosomal segmental copy number variation (CNV) has been recently recognized as a very important source of genetic variability.Some CNV loci involve genes or conserved regulatory elements.Compelling evidence indicates that CNVs impact genome functions.The chicken is a very important farm animal species which has also served as
The origin of life involved complicated evolutionary processes.Computer modeling is a promising way to reveal relevant mechanisms.However, due to the limitation of our knowledge on prebiotic chemistry, it is usually difficult to justify parameter-setting for the modeling.Thus, typically, the studies were conducted in a reverse way: the parameter-sp
The paper studies determinants of flexibility of the nominal effective exchange rate and the effects of exchange rate shocks on macroeconomic variables and key components of the external balances using data for a sample of advanced and body oil developing countries.The composite evidence points to the positive effects of appreciation through cheape
Tourism is considered one of the main sources of pressure on the global ecosystem, which is being increasingly affected by climate change.Few studies have evaluated the spatial patterns of tourism pressure that ecosystems will suffer under the changing climate in the future.Considering the Three-River-Source National Park, China, as the study area,
