A new baenid turtle from the early Paleocene (Torrejonian) of New Mexico and a species-level phylogenetic analysis of Baenidae

Lyson, Tyler R. ; Joyce, Walter G. ; Lucas, Spencer G. ; Sullivan, Robert M.

In: Journal of Paleontology, 2016, vol. 90, no. 2, p. 305–316

New cranial and postcranial material of the baenid turtle Neurankylus from the Paleocene Nacimiento Formation (Torrejonian NALMA) of northwestern New Mexico represents a new species, Neurankylus torrejonensis. The material consists of a fragmented but mostly complete skull, a partial carapace and plastron, portions of both humeri, a partial pelvis, a complete right femur, and a distal phalanx....

Considerations for designing chemical screening strategies in plant biology

Serrano, Mario ; Kombrink, Erich ; Meesters, Christian

In: Frontiers in Plant Science - Plant Physiology, 2015, vol. 6, p. 131

Traditionally, biologists regularly used classical genetic approaches to characterize and dissect plant processes. However, this strategy is often impaired by redundancy, lethality or pleiotropy of gene functions, which prevent the isolation of viable mutants. The chemical genetic approach has been recognized as an alternative experimental strategy, which has the potential to circumvent these...

Structure of marginally jammed polydisperse packings of frictionless spheres

Zhang, Chi ; O'Donovan, Cathal B. ; Corwin, Eric I. ; Cardinaux, Frédéric ; Mason, Thomas G. ; Möbius, Matthias E. ; Scheffold, Frank

In: Physical Review E, 2015, vol. 91, no. 3, p. 032302

We model the packing structure of a marginally jammed bulk ensemble of polydisperse spheres. To this end we expand on the granocentric model [Clusel et al., Nature (London) 460, 611 (2009)], explicitly taking into account rattlers. This leads to a relationship between the characteristic parameters of the packing, such as the mean number of neighbors and the fraction of rattlers, and the radial...

Contribution to the understanding of the Ionian Basin sedimentary evolution along the eastern edge of Apulia during the Late Cretaceous in Albania

Le Goff, J. ; Cerepi, A. ; Swennen, R. ; Loisy, C. ; Caron, Michèle ; Muska, K. ; Desouky, H. El

In: Sedimentary Geology, 2015, vol. 317, p. 87–101

Integrated in the peri-Adriatic domain, the Ionian Basin extended along a NW-SE direction during the Late Cretaceous, limited on its sides by the Apulian and the Kruja platforms. The basinal/slope succession was studied in seven outcrops exposed in the Albanian fold-and-thrust belt. Sedimentological investigations, supported by bio- and chronostratigraphy were performed on calcareous Upper...

Ediacaran to Cambrian oceanic rocks of the Gondwana margin and their tectonic interpretation

Raumer, Jürgen F. von ; Stampfli, Gérard M. ; Arenas, Ricardo ; Martínez, Sonia Sánchez

In: International Journal of Earth Sciences, 2015, p. 1–15

In tectonic maps of Variscan Europe, allochthonous pieces of Cadomian basement clearly stand out with their predominant metabasic to ultrabasic elements, the so-called exotic terranes with ophiolites. Most of these domains are observed in basements of the Central Iberian Allochthone, the South Armorican domain, the nappe structures of the French Massif Central, the Saxothuringian Zone and the...
