British Bank Stores Billionth Seed

Done you spring planting it（yet）? Well, Today April 26th, the Royal Botanic Garden in England will not plant seed instead it’ll put it in the bank. The seed is the biliions（Bilionth） collected by the Gardens Milannia(Millennium) Seed Bank, the largest wild plants seed bank in the world. The seed bank was conceived in 1992 and it has been calling known as art(called Noah’s Ark) for plants. The bank has a (去掉)capacity for seeds for half of the world’s plants, and already holds seeds representing 88% of the English floor(flora). By 2010, the seeds bank hope(s)to collect and conserve seeds form 10% of the world’s known-well (wild)flowering (florae )plant species. The billions(billionth) seed in collection is from African Bamboo, species’ name Oxytenanthera Abyssinica. the seeds comes Mali in west Africa, was planted years for construction and furniture making. But due to over harvesting, African Bamboo was now in danger in Mali. It’s(Its) conservation (is) priority because its usefulness and its threatening habitat. It affects seeds only seven years. It won’t set seeds again until 2013.

Former Footballers At Risk for Pain and Depression

This will just take a minute. The national football league drafts its new batch of good iron gladiators this weekend. Many of these young men will go on to fame, fortune and shirts with 21 internex. But the new study looks into the health of the players after they have done and providing highlights for sportcenter. The research published in a current issue of medicine science , sports and exercise found that former NFL players have not surprisingly serious problems with chronic pain that could become a factor in depression. Almost 16,00 ex-players responded to a survey about 15% reported moderate serious depression and half reported chronic pain problems which itself is a strong rick factor for continued or future depression. In addition, the players who wants to lead lives as symbles of strengthen and power reported they had trouble asking for help because they will then feel weak or embrassed. The study of ex- NFL football players that shines light on the problems perhaps faced by many older people who wants to lead lives power and authority and do now may find it hard the seek the help they need.

Smelly Mutation May Have Been First Step To New Fly Species

They called it seriously vomit fruit to Tahitian Noni ia a Polynesian shrugs the smell so bad well bla. Anyway, most species of fruit flies stay away from the plants which get its nasty smell from presence of hexone and octanol gases. The flies version is well founded even a night it on the affected food they die. But one species of fruit flies just as effortless show it, loves the perky plant. It even laid eggs there. And the study is just published in public science and biology. Research looks into the genetics differences between the SHALY and the close relatives that shone NALY. They found it very different patterns of expression of two genes responsible for affection that made the SHALY’s fruit flies no longer notice the bad smell. More research will be on rival of rest of the story but it seems good bet once the se SHALY start to stop minding its function. It quickly develops resistance to the citizen’s environment and kills the other species of SHUFLA. And now mutations that make few flies tolerate the smell plant may have been the first step to new specie.

Retail Products May Suffer Guilt By Association
Lard, mayonnaise, dippers, KITTY LITTER, cigarettes, feminine napkins, shortening, trash bags, new research shows that consumers may react to these products with visual discuss which may then transfer to usually desirable products like cookies. If two products touch each other on store shelf or even in the shopping cart. Let’s according to a study appear in an main issue of journal of marketing research, for example, studying subjects were less likely to accept the offer of the cookie even an hour after they saw a package of cookies touching a box of sanitary napkins. The research point it out this behavior may have sound and instinctual basis we probably naturally avoid food that we think maybe contact with germs or something else unhygienic. Transparent wrappers heightened the associated fact, participants who saw rice cakes clear of wrapping touching a jar of lard estimated the cakes has more fat in them than cakes in opaque packaging. Bottom line manufacturer might want to pay close attention to packaging and retail sale shelf position.

The science test of the day is named the composer of this music. It’s you. That’s the sequence of human. I mean amino acid turn into the music by the scientist in UCLA took express many many combinations of this building box of protein themselves. The researchers hope the new music will help non-scientists, young people and the blind appreciate the complex and beautiful world of cell-biology. But making the music wasn’t easy; they had to find ways to use the 13 notes in western music to represent 20 basic amino acid. The solution expresses individual acid chords For example, ferrous aloin and tyrosine both signed G major chord, but the notes in the chord are range differently. The result music is more listenable and subtle than previous attempt to convert biology into sound. The team is also working on a computer program to let people send incodings from a protein and have it return music like this piece based on horse amino acid.

The Music of Amino Acids

The science test of the day is named （to name） the composer of this music. It’s you. That’s the sequence of human. amino acid turn(ed) into the music by the(去掉) scientist in UCLA took（to） express many(,) many combinations of this building box(blocks) of protein(s) themselves. The researchers hope the new music will help non-scientists, young people and the blind appreciate the complex and beautiful world of cell-biology. But making the music wasn’t easy; they had to find ways to use the 13 notes in western music to represent 20 basic amino acid. The solution expresses (去掉es)individual acid (as)chords. For example, ferrous aloin(phenylalanine) and tyrosine (are)both signed(assigned) G major chord, but the notes in the chord are range(d) differently. The result(-) music is more listenable and subtle than previous attempt to convert biology into sound. The team is also working on a computer program to let people send encodings from a protein and have it return(ed as ) music like this piece based on horse amino acid.

根据小眉的答案改过。:)

Old Drugs' Potential New Roles
On March 15th episode, we talked about old drugs of learn new tricks. This chemical started it out fighting one disease, when the researchers discovered they could treat something else. Now comes news of a couple of more Molecules that might be soon moonlighting. First, Researcher in John Hopkins(JH) found that the ingredients in dandruff shampoo that suit the itching on your skull can also cause brain cell insult your head. The scientists were researching for chemical interacting with protective channels molecules help to quite exited nerve cells, When these channels are damaged, no answer get stimulated, the condition can cause cells seizures. The JH team discovered that ingredients in dandruff shampoo make the effective protective channels run smoothly, which make it good candidate for treat conditions like epilepsy. Meanwhile, another team in JH found drug used to treat toenail fungus can also block the growth of new blood vessels, such angiogenesis are being test for the ability to kill tumors, which need new blood vessels to survive and spread. Can’t make you wonder? What another chemical break through might be looking beneath your bathroom scene.
