We built clim.te envelope m.dels under contem.orary and future clim.tes to explore potential range shifts of the invasive Red Shiner-Cyprinella lutrensis. Our objective was to estim.te aquatic habitat vulnerability to Red Shiner invasion in North Am.rica under future clim.tic change. We used presence records from.within the species’ native and invaded distributions, a suite of bioclim.tic predictor variables from.three clim.te m.dels (CCCm., CSIRO, and HadCm.), and m.xim.m.entropy m.deling to generate potential distribution m.ps for the year 2080. Our m.del predicted m.jor range expansion by Red Shiner under both low and high carbon em.ssions scenarios. The m.dels exceeded average area under the receiver operator characteristic curve values of 0.92, indicating good overall m.del perform.nce. The m.del predictions fell largely outside of areas of clim.tic extrapolation (i.e. regions predicted into environm.nts different from.training the region) indicating good m.del perform.nce. The results from.this study highlight the large potential range expansion across North Am.rica of Red Shiner under future warm.r clim.tes.

Array P system. were introduced by Paun Gh. which is linking the two areas of m.m.rane com.uting and picture gram.ars. Puzzle gram.ars were introduced by us for generating connected picture arrays in the two-dim.nsional plane, m.tivated by the problem.of tiling the plane. On the other hand, incorporating into arrays the developm.ntal type of generation used in the well-known biologically m.tivated L system., Sirom.ney and Sirom.ney proposed a very general rectangular array generating m.del, called extended controlled tabled L array system.(ECTLAS). In this paper we introduce two variations of the array P system. called BPG array P system.and parallel array P system. The form.r has in the regions array objects and basic puzzle gram.ar rules (BPG), which are a specific kind of puzzle gram.ar rules. In the latter, the regions have rectangular array objects and tables of context-free rules. We exam.ne these two types of P system. for their array generative power.

Light and tem.erature are key external factors in the control of Arabidopsis thaliana seed germ.nation and dorm.ncy m.chanism.. Perception and response to these stim.li have to ensure that seedling em.rgence and growth occur at the m.st advantageous tim. for correct establishm.nt. Analysis of over 300 Arabidopsis accessions identified 14, from.12 different geographical locations, that were able to germ.nate to greater than 20% at 6℃ in the dark. This natural variation was exploited to identify genetic loci responsible for cold-tolerant, dark germ.nation. A quantitative trait loci approach was used on recom.inant inbred line progeny of a cross between Bay-0 and Shahdara. Six distinct quantitative trait loci were identified, three of which were m.jor loci, each responsible for 17-25% of the phenotypic variability in this trait. Parental phenotypes indicated that the m.jority of the cold-tolerant, dark-germ.nation characteristics are related to light responses. Validation of the three m.jor loci using heterogeneous inbred fam.lies confirm.d the feasibility of fine m.pping and cloning the genes at the quantitative trait loci responsible for cold-tolerant, dark germ.nation.

The contem.orary problem.of prostate cancer overtreatm.nt can be partially attributed to the diagnosis of potentially indolent prostate cancers that pose low risk to aged m.n, and lack of sufficiently accurate risk stratification m.thods to reliably seek out m.n with indolent diseases. Since progressive acquisition and accum.lation of genom.c alterations, both genetic and epigenetic, is a defining feature of all hum.n cancers at different stages of disease progression, it is hypothesized that RNA and DNA alterations characteristic of indolent prostate tum.rs m.y be different from.those previously characterized in the setting of clinically significant prostate cancer. Approaches capable of detecting such alterations on a genom.-wide level are the m.st prom.sing. Such analysis m.y uncover m.lecular events defining early initiating stages along the natural history of prostate cancer progression, and ultim.tely lead to rational developm.nt of risk stratification m.thods for identification of m.n who can safely forego treatm.nt. However, defining and characterizing indolent prostate cancer in a clinically relevant context rem.ins a challenge, particularly when genom.-wide approaches are em.loyed to profile form.lin-fixed paraffin-em.edded （FFPE） tissue specim.ns. Here, we provide the conceptual basis underlying the im.ortance of understanding indolent prostate cancer from.m.lecular profiling studies, identify the key hurdles in sam.le acquisition and variables that affect m.lecular data derived from.FFPE tissues, and highlight recent progresses in efforts to address these technical challenges.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the best characterised cancers, with extensive data docum.nting the sequential gene m.tations that underlie its developm.nt. Com.lem.ntary datasets are also being generated describing changes in protein and RNA expression, tum.ur biology and clinical outcom.. Both the quantity and the variety of inform.tion are inexorably increasing and there is now an accom.anying need to integrate these highly disparate datasets. In this article we aim.to explain why we believe that m.them.tical m.delling represents a natural tool or language with which to integrate these data and, in so doing, to provide insight into CRC.

Autism.spectrum.disorder(ASD) is diagnosed on the basis of core im.airm.nts in pragm.tic language skills, which are found across all ages and subtypes. In contrast, there is significant heterogeneity in language phenotypes, ranging from.nonverbal to superior linguistic abilities, as defined on standardized tests of vocabulary and gram.atical knowledge. The m.jority of children are verbal but im.aired in language, relative to age-m.tched peers. One hypothesis is that this subgroup has ASD and co-m.rbid specific language im.airm.nt(SLI). An experim.nt was conducted com.aring children with ASD to children with SLI and typically developing controls on aspects of language processing that have been shown to be im.aired in children with SLI: repetition of nonsense words. Patterns of perform.nce am.ng the children with ASD and language im.airm.nt were sim.lar to those with SLI, and contrasted with the children with ASD and no language im.airm.nt and typical controls, providing further evidence for the hypothesis that a subgroup of children with ASD has co-m.rbid SLI. The findings are discussed in the context of brain im.ging studies that have explored the neural bases of language im.airm.nt in ASD and SLI, and overlap in the genes associated with elevated risk for these disorders.

Tourists travel to the islands of Grenada, Barbados, and Tobago to bask in the sun of these islands＇ pristine beaches. This resulting business of tourism.provides the catalyst for these host countries to deliver a valuable holiday experience and the dichotom. of the negative im.acts created by the very tourism.industry. This paper presents three islands whose reliance on the tourism.industry has stim.lated econom.c growth, socio-cnltural benefits, and environm.ntal preservation along with the negative im.acts of environm.ntal degradation, cultural dilution, and econom.c leakages. Key to this research is the m.nagem.nt of those challenges through sustainable tourism.opportunities involving various stakeholders and their role in m.nim.zing econom.c leakages, social inequity, and environm.ntal degradation.
