Both sperm typing and linkage disequilibrium patterns from large population genetic data sets have demonstrated that recombination hotspots are responsible for much of the recombination activity in ...

Introduction: Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) is a highly adaptable virus with large genetic diversity that has been widely studied for its oncolytic activities and potential as a vector vaccine. This ...

Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...

In sexually reproducing organisms, germ cells faithfully transmit the genome to the next generation by forming haploid gametes, such as eggs and sperm. Although most meiotic proteins are conserved ...

In a major development for genetics, a complete map of how human DNA from two parents mixes in offspring has now been revealed through the work of deCODE genetics/Amgen scientists, with major ...

Spatial confinement of electronic excitations in semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) results in a significant enhancement of nonradiative Auger recombination (AR), such that AR processes can easily ...

Abstract: In this paper, the main photocurrent density and power conversion efficiency limiting mechanisms in bulk heterojunction solar cells are discussed with the emphasis on recombination processes ...

Abstract: Excess carriers in semiconductors recombine either by direct recombination of electrons and holes, or through the intermediacy of recombination centers. The latter process is the one ...
