:  Sex differences in human ability to discern facial resemblance might be due to female dispersal
Oberzaucher, Elisabeth (Department of Evolutionary Anthropology, Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Vienna);Bös, Christa (Department of Evolutionary Anthropology, Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Vienna);Grammer, Karl (Department of Evolutionary Anthropology, Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Vienna)
Inclusive fitness theory presumes a human ability to discriminate between kin and nonkin. The present study investigated to what extent computer-generated similarity or dissimilarity can be discerned as phenotypic resemblance or dissimilarity, respec...

(IUCN Global Ecosystem Management Programme)
An understanding of risks to biodiversity is needed for planning action to slow current rates of decline and secure ecosystem services for future human use. Although the IUCN Red List criteria provide an effective assessment protocol for species, a s...
 
:  Trade-Offs between Competition and Defense Specialists among Unicellular Planktonic Organisms: the "Killing the Winner" Hypothesis Revisited
Winter, Christian (University of Vienna);Bouvier, Thierry (University of Vienna);Weinbauer, Markus (Laboratoire d'Océanographie de Villefranche);Thingstad, Tron Frede (University of Bergen)
A trade-off between strategies maximizing growth and minimizing losses appears to be a fundamental property of evolving biological entities existing in environments with limited resources. In the special case of unicellular planktonic organisms, the ...
 
:  HPat a Decapping Activator Interacting with the miRNA Effector Complex
Barišić-Jäger, Elisabeth (Department of Microbiology, Immunobiology and Genetics, Centre for Molecular Biology, University of Vienna);Kręcioch, Izabela (Department of Microbiology, Immunobiology and Genetics, Centre for Molecular Biology, University of Vienna);Hosiner, Stefanie (Department of Microbiology, Immunobiology and Genetics, Centre for Molecular Biology, University of Vienna);Antic, Sanja (Department of Microbiology, Immunobiology and Genetics, Centre for Molecular Biology, University of Vienna);Dorner, Silke (Department of Microbiology, Immunobiology and Genetics, Centre for Molecular Biology, University of Vienna)
Animal miRNAs commonly mediate mRNA degradation and/or translational repression by binding to their target mRNAs. Key factors for miRNA-mediated mRNA degradation are the components of the miRNA effector complex (AGO1 and GW182) and the general mRNA d...
 
:  Pepino mosaic virus Infection of Tomato Affects Allergen Expression, but Not the Allergenic Potential of Fruits
Welter, Saskia (Department of Plant Nutrition, Leibniz-Institute of Vegetable and Ornamental Crops Großbeeren/Erfurt e.V.);Dölle, Sabine (Department of Dermatology and Allergology, Charité-Universitätsmedizin, Berlin);Lehmann, Karola (Proteome Factory AG);Schwarz, Dietmar (Department of Plant Nutrition, Leibniz-Institute of Vegetable and Ornamental Crops Großbeeren/Erfurt e.V.);Weckwerth, Wolfram (University of Vienna);Worm, Margitta (Department of Dermatology and Allergology, Charité-Universitätsmedizin, Berlin);Franken, Philipp (Department of Plant Nutrition, Leibniz-Institute of Vegetable and Ornamental Crops Großbeeren/Erfurt e.V.)
The plant pathogen Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV) is a major disease of greenhouse tomato crops worldwide. Plant pathogens can induce expression of defence- or pathogenesis-related proteins, including identified allergens. Therefore we hypothesised that...

The results of an ethnobotanical study conducted in the pristine village of Prokoško Lake (Vranica Mountain, Bosnia and Herzegovina) in summer 2007 is presented. Informal interviews involving 12 informants known as "traditional healers" provided data...
 
:  RNPomics: defining the ncRNA transcriptome by cDNA library generation from ribonucleo-protein particles.

Up to 450,000 non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have been predicted to be transcribed from the human genome. However, it still has to be elucidated which of these transcripts represent functional ncRNAs. Since all functional ncRNAs in Eukarya form ribonucleo-...
