Cosmos is a brilliant choice for small front-garden patches, pots and gigantic border gaps alike, as it seems to expand into whatever space is available.
The developed methodology can be applied to both individual trees as well as to a group of trees bordering a gap, in order to get insight on how trees recolonize the space that is freed by local and large scale disturbances.
"The arrival of large groups of women and children on the U.S. side of the Rio Grande is pulling agents away from their patrol stations elsewhere along the border, creating gaps in coverage that the traffickers can exploit, according to Chris Cabrera, the Border Patrol union representative here.
The fiber cells had intact uniformly stained cytoplasms with well-defined plasma membrane borders and gap junctions.
The formation of borders of gap gene expression domains could be understood in terms of three qualitative dynamical mechanisms: (1) The movement of attractors; (2) Selection of attractors; (3) Selection of states on a one dimensional attracting manifold.
The arrows in (G, I, and K ) show the four compartment borders where gaps were routinely seen between the MBON dendrites in adjacent compartments; these gaps correspond to areas of reduced synaptic density (see Figure 10 figure supplement 1 ).
Creating such nature highways and corridors – ie shrubby borders; leaving gaps beneath fences – raises the quality of the whole street for wildlife.
Sometimes in recent years, when hearing his works as a member of the audience, I have found myself becoming troubled by the mosaic-like nature of their construction, perceiving the borders and gaps instead of the glories of the invention.
Furthermore, because of the lack of positional information, the correct de novo contig that aligns to the border of the gap could not be selected when there is more than one possible match.
In order to better understand the processes of developmental robustness and canalization in the early Drosophila embryo, we investigated the dynamical effects of varying spatial profiles of Bicoid protein concentration on the formation of the expression border of the gap gene hunchback.
