The avocado genome informs deep angiosperm phylogeny, highlights introgressive hybridization, and reveals pathogen-influenced gene space adaptation by Rendón-Anaya, Martha, Ibarra-Laclette, Enrique, Méndez-Bravo, Alfonso, Lan, Tianying, Zheng, Chunfang, Carretero-Paulet, Lorenzo, Perez-Torres, Claudia Anahí, Chacón-López, Alejandra, Hernandez-Guzmán, Gustavo, Chang, Tien-Hao, Farr, Kimberly M, Barbazuk, W Brad, Chamala, Srikar, Mutwil, Marek, Shivhare, Devendra, Alvarez-Ponce, David, Mitter, Neena, Hayward, Alice, Fletcher, Stephen, Rozas, Julio, Sánchez Gracia, Alejandro, Kuhn, David, Barrientos-Priego, Alejandro F, Salojärvi, Jarkko, Librado, Pablo, Sankoff, David, Herrera-Estrella, Alfredo, Albert, Victor A, Herrera-Estrella, Luis

“…We sequenced the nuclear genomes of the Mexican avocado race, P. americana var. drymifolia, and the most commercially popular hybrid cultivar, Hass, and anchored the latter to chromosomes using a genetic map. Resequencing of Guatemalan and West Indian varieties revealed that ∼39% of the Hass genome represents Guatemalan source regions introgressed into a Mexican race background. …”

Experimental Characterization of Iron-Sulfur Cluster Excited States and their Relevance to Electron Transfer Reactions by Skeel, Brighton A.

“…Finally, we describe the variable temperature electron transfer self-exchange kinetics for a series of [Fe₄S₄]¹⁺/²⁺ clusters where we have experimentally mapped the excited spin state manifolds, thus taking the first steps toward connecting the excited state manifolds of these metallocofactors to their reactivities.…”

Synergistic effects in hydrodynamic cavitation abrasive finishing for internal surface-finish enhancement of additive-manufactured components by Nagalingam, Arun Prasanth, Yuvaraj, Hemanth Kumar, Yeo, Swee Hock

“…The synergistic effects yielded 80% higher material removal and over 90% (Ra) higher surface-finish enhancement in HCAF conditions than those from pure cavitation and abrasion. A synergy map is proposed to quantify the contribution from the synergistic effects from hydrodynamic cavitation abrasive finishing. …”

Genes for sexual body size dimorphism in hybrid tilapia (Oreochromis sp. x Oreochromis mossambicus) by Wan, Zi Yi, Lin, Grace, Yue, Genhua

“…One hundred and thirty-six sex-biased genes, of which 23 were male-biased and 113 were female-biased, were identified via reanalysis of a muscle transcriptome data using the latest reference genome assembly. These genes were mapped to KEGG pathways that are related to somatic cell metabolism, growth and differentiations, such as MAPK, FoxO4 and metabolism pathways as well as developmental processes responsible for skeletal muscle development. …”

Investigation and implementation of image processing algorithms for medical application by Mya Thandar Maung.

“…This paper discuses the analysis of fMRI data, from the initial raw data to its use in locating brain activity and to map the brain function. A standard fMRI study gives rise to massive amounts of noisy data as its signal is corrupted by random noise and various components that arise due to both the system hardware reasons and the subjects themselves together with a complicated spatial-temporal correlation structure. …”

Persuasive teachable agent for intergenerational learning by Lim, Su Fang

“…Teachable agents are commonly used in the learning of science and mathematics where students are able to learn complex concepts and deep reasoning when they teach the teachable agent using graphical representations such as concept maps. Literature review on teachable agents have shown that many current teachable agents lack the ability to proactively interact with the students, an important feature required to keep students engaged in learning tasks. …”
