Sliding-window analysis has widely been used to uncover synonymous (silent, d(S)) and nonsynonymous (replacement, d(N)) rate variation along the protein sequence and to detect regions of a protein under selective constraint (indicated by d(N)d(S)).The approach compares two or more protein-coding genes and plots estimates d(/)(S) and d(/)(N) from ea
The fluid flow pattern and free surface fluctuation in a mold profoundly influence both molten steel solidification and molten slag thermodynamics behavior in the continuous casting process.In addition, the fluid flow and surface fluctuation behaviors are important factors of inclusions floatation, meniscus hook formation, and shear layer instabili
IntroductionBacteria derived from the maternal circulation have been suggested to seed the human placenta during development leading to an intrinsic placental microbiome.This concept has become controversial as numerous studies suggest that the apparent placental microbiome is mostly, if not completely, comprised of contaminants.If the maternal cir
