• Ecology and Evolution of Caste and Polymorphism in Pogonomyrmex Seed Harvester Ants 

  Smith, Christopher R. (2008)

  In conclusion, the many independent origins of caste in the social insects likely resulted from variation in the proximate factors that can yield phenotypic differences (e.g., larval diet, genetic variation, social regulation) ...

• Mechanism of Light Regulation of Rubisco by Rubisco Activase via Thioredoxin -F in Arabidopsis Thaliana 

  Zhang, Ning (2000)

  Rubisco activase is a nuclear-encoded chloroplast protein that is required for the light activation of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) in vivo. In most plants examined to date, there are two soforms ...
