A tymovirus from Calopogonium mucunoides in Malaysia is not clitoria yellow vein tymovirus: brief report by Gibbs, A.J., Mackenzie, A.M., Abdul-Samad, N.

“…We have sequenced the virion protein (VP) gene of the virus and have found that although it is a member of the cluster that includes CYVV, it is the most distinct member of that cluster (< 62% sequence identity with all the others), and is clearly a separate species, which we propose should be named calopogonium yellow vein virus. …”

Maxwell-type models for the effective thermal conductivity of a porous material with radiative transfer in the voids by Kiradjiev, KB, Halvorsen, SA, Van Gorder, RA, Howison, SD

“…Indeed, the utility of these models over classical Maxwell-type models is seen in the high-temperature regime, where they predict that the effective thermal conductivity of the composite material levels off to a constant value (as a function of temperature) at very high temperatures, provided that the material is not too porous, in agreement with experiments. …”

‘Doing’ leadership in interaction : a discursive investigation of emerging leadership construction in small group interaction by Dong, Shujing

“…Exerting influence is essential in social life but how to exert influence over and lead others is a complex but intriguing question. Although the dynamic and procedural nature of leadership construction has drawn increasing attention in recent years, investigations on how interactional practices may be employed in order to emerge as a leader in non-hierarchal settings remain lacking. …”
