GENETIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL INFLUENCES ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FLOW PRONENESS, LOCUS OF CONTROL AND BEHAVIORAL INHIBITION.

Genetic and environmental influences on the relationship between flow proneness, locus of control and behavioral inhibition.

Flow is a psychological state of high but subjectively effortless attention that typically occurs during active performance of challenging tasks and is accompanied by a sense of automaticity, high control, low self-awareness, and enjoyment.Flow proneness is associated with traits and behaviors related to low neuroticism such as emotional stability,

A Novel Widespread MITE Element in the Repeat-Rich Genome of the Cardinium Endosymbiont of the Spider Oedothorax gibbosus

ABSTRACT Free-living bacteria have evolved multiple times to become host-restricted endosymbionts.The transition from a free-living to a host-restricted lifestyle comes with a number of different genomic changes, including a massive loss of genes.In PURPLE MASK host-restricted endosymbionts, gene inactivation and genome reduction are facilitated by

The best radiographic method for determining root canal morphology in mandibular first premolars: A study of Chinese descendants in Taiwan

Background/purpose: There is large variation in root canal morphology and undetected canals and incomplete instrumentation are reasons for root canal treatment failure.The purpose of this study was to determine the best radiographic method for determining root canal morphology in mandibular first premolars in Chinese descendants in Taiwan.Materials

Mib1 prevents Notch Cis-inhibition to defer differentiation and preserve neuroepithelial integrity during neural delamination.

The vertebrate neuroepithelium is composed of elongated progenitors whose reciprocal attachments ensure the continuity of the ventricular wall.As progenitors commit to differentiation, they translocate their nucleus basally and eventually withdraw their apical endfoot from the ventricular surface.However, the mechanisms allowing this delamination p
