Background Genome skimming is a popular method in plant phylogenomics that do not include a biased enrichment step, relying on random shallow sequencing of total genomic DNA.From these data the plastome is usually readily assembled and constitutes the bulk of phylogenetic information generated in these studies.Despite a few attempts to use genome s
Ion irradiation combined with nanoindentation is a promising tool for studying irradiation-induced hardening of nuclear materials, including reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steels.For RPV steels, the major sources of hardening are nm-sized irradiation-induced dislocation loops and solute atom clusters, both representing barriers for dislocation glide
Abstract Background Significant mental health disparities exist for Hispanic populations, especially with regard to depression treatment.Stigma and poor communication between patients and their providers result in low use of antidepressant medications and early treatment withdrawal.Cultural factors which influence treatment decisions among Hispanic
