Detection of CRISPR cassettes and cas genes in the Arabidopsis thaliana genome by Yu. M. Konstantinov, I. S. Petrushin

“…The probable connection between the locus found in the mitochondrial genome of the higher plant and the function of adaptive immunity is indicated by a similarity between the spacer sequences in the CRISPR cassette found and the genome of Cauliflower mosaic virus affecting Arabidopsis plants. Sequences of repeats and spacers of CRISPR cassettes in Arabidopsis C24 and Ler lines are perfectly identical. …”

Plio–Quaternary Tectonic Activity in the Northern Nubian Belts: The Main Driving Forces by Enzo Mantovani, Marcello Viti, Daniele Babbucci, Caterina Tamburelli

“…Since then, the consumption of the residual low-buoyancy domains in the Mediterranean area was allowed by a major change in the plate mosaic and the related kinematics. The new tectonic setting started with the decoupling of a large portion of the Adriatic domain (Adria plate) from Nubia, through the formation of a long discontinuity crossing the Ionian domain (Victor Hensen–Medina fault) and the Hyblean–Pelagian domain (Sicily channel fault system). …”

Study on Change of Landscape Pattern Characteristics of Comprehensive Land Improvement Based on Optimal Spatial Scale by Baoping Feng, Hui Yang, Yarong Ren, Shanshan Zheng, Genxiang Feng, Yuwei Huang

“…This scale can reflect the spatial variability of the landscape pattern in the study area and is the most suitable analysis range. (3) The fragmentation degree of paddy fields as landscape matrix decreased and the landscape dominance degree increased in the comprehensive land improvement; the degree of fragmentation of irrigated land and agricultural land for facilities increased, the aggregation of land for construction increased, the dominance degree of the pond surface decreased, and the overall landscape diversity of each mosaic decreased; the landscape heterogeneity of ditches, rural roads, forest and grassland corridors was weakened, and the ecosystem service function was weakened. (4) The trend of increased fragmentation, simplification of landscape types, and decreased diversity presented by the landscape pattern clearly indicates that the landscape pattern of the study area has been seriously damaged to some extent under the influence of human activities. …”
