Abstract Hybridization has been recognized to play important roles in evolution, however studies of the genetic consequence are still lagging behind in vertebrates due to the lack of appropriate experimental systems.Fish of the genus Xiphophorus are proposed to have cashmere roller blinds evolved with multiple ancient and ongoing hybridization even
Abstract Background The koala (Phascolarctos cinereus), an iconic yet endangered specialised folivore experiencing widespread decline across Australia, is the focus of many conservation programs.Whilst animal translocation and progressive conservation strategies such as faecal inoculations may be required to bring this species back from the brink o
Coal is expected to be an important energy resource for some developing countries in the coming decades; thus, the rapid classification and qualification of coal quality has an important impact on the improvement in industrial production and the reduction in pollution emissions.The traditional methods for the proximate analysis of coal are time con
Buildings are one of the systems that more energy consumed in the European Union.The study of the thermal envelope is interesting in order to reduce the energy losses.For that, a mathematical model able to predict the system response to external temperature variations is developed.With the mathematical model, different thermal envelope elements of
