DNA methylation is traditionally thought to be established during early development and to remain mostly unchanged thereafter in healthy tissues, although recent studies have shown that this epigenetic mark can be more dynamic.Epigenetic changes occur in the liver after birth, but the timing and underlying biological processes leading to DNA methyl
At SAC 2011, Bertoni et al.introduced the keyed duplex construction as a tool to build permutation based authenticated encryption schemes.The construction was generalized to full-state absorption by Mennink et al.(ASIACRYPT 2015).Daemen et al.(ASIACRYPT 2017) generalized it further to cover much more use cases, and proved security of this general c
Few studies document plants in caves.Our field observations of a widespread and seemingly angiosperm-rich cave flora in SW China lead us to test the following hypotheses, 1) SW China caves contain a diverse vascular plant flora, 2) that this is a relic of a largely absent forest type lacking endemic species, and 3) that the light environment plants
