An essential part of spatial control of gene expression is cytoplasmic messenger RNA localization. Several putative functions for mRNA localization have been proposed. They include efficient control ...

When we think about heat traveling through a material, we typically picture diffusive transport, a process that transfers ...

Most of the water that enters a plant will exit the leaf into the atmosphere. This provides a continuous stream of water which is known as the transpiration stream. Surface area (not an environmental ...
