How challenging RADseq data turned out to favor coalescent-based species tree inference. A case study in Aichryson (Crassulaceae)
2022
Analysing multiple genomic regions while incorporating detection and qualification of discordance among regions has become standard for understanding phylogenetic relationships. In plants, which usually have comparatively large genomes, this is feasible by the combination of reduced-representation library (RRL) methods and high-throughput sequencing enabling the cost effective acquisition of genomic data for thousands of loci from hundreds of samples. One popular RRL method is RADseq. A major disadvantage of established RADseq approaches is the rather short fragment and sequencing range, leading to loci of little individual phylogenetic information. This issue hampers the application of coa…

"In der Mathematik ist ein Streit mit Sicherheit zu entscheiden". Perspektiven einer Soziologie der Mathematik
2000
Die Mathematik wird in diesem Aufsatz als ein empirisches Beispiel präsentiert, an dem sich die Voraussetzungen eines "rationalen Dissenses" exemplarisch untersuchen lassen. Denn im Gegensatz zu anderen epistemischen Kulturen gibt es in der Mathematik weder interpretative Flexibilität noch unentscheidbare Kontroversen. Auf der Basis einer medientheoretischen Perspektive und einer Feldstudie in einem internationalen Mathematikinstitut geht der Aufsatz der Frage nach, ob die Soziologie im Falle der Mathematik nicht auf eine prinzipielle Grenze stößt. In einem ersten Teil wird die These einer epistemischen Besonderheit der Mathematik präzisiert und in Auseinandersetzung mit zwei programmatisch…
Focal Cortical Lesions Induce Bidirectional Changes in the Excitability of Fast Spiking and Non Fast Spiking Cortical Interneurons
2014
A physiological brain function requires neuronal networks to operate within a well-defined range of activity. Indeed, alterations in neuronal excitability have been associated with several pathological conditions, ranging from epilepsy to neuropsychiatric disorders. Changes in inhibitory transmission are known to play a key role in the development of hyperexcitability. However it is largely unknown whether specific interneuronal subpopulations contribute differentially to such pathological condition. In the present study we investigated functional alterations of inhibitory interneurons embedded in a hyperexcitable cortical circuit at the border of chronically induced focal lesions in mouse …

Observable radizielle Untergruppen von halbeinfachen algebraischen Gruppen
1979
Sei G eine affine algebraische Gruppe, definiert tiber einem algebraisch abgeschlossenen K6rper k von beliebiger Charakteristik. Die observablen Untergruppen von G sind die Untergruppen, die als Stabilisatoren bei rationalen Darstellungen von G auftreten. Sie wurden in [2] und [5] ausfiihrlich diskutiert. Dabei zeigte sich, dab es im allgemeinen wohl sehr schwierig ist zu entscheiden, ob eine Untergruppe observabel ist. Daher ist es sinnvoll, Kriterien zu finden. In [9] gab Sukhanov ftir Charakteristik 0 ein notwendiges und hinreichendes Kriterium daftir an, dab eine radizielle Untergruppe einer halbeinfachen algebraischen Gruppe observabel ist; dabei will ich unter einer radiziellen Unterg…
Widening of Hydrous Shear Zones During Incipient Eclogitization of Metastable Dry and Rigid Lower Crust—Holsnøy, Western Norway
2021
The partially eclogitized crustal rocks on Holsnøy in the Bergen Arcs, Norway, indicate that eclogitization is caused by the interplay of brittle and ductile deformation promoted by fluid infiltration and fluid‐rock interaction. Eclogitization generated an interconnected network of millimeter‐to‐kilometer‐wide hydrous eclogite‐facies shear zones, which presumably caused transient weakening of the mechanically strong lower crust. To decipher the development of those networks, we combine detailed lithological and structural mapping of two key outcrops with numerical modeling. Both outcrops are largely composed of preserved granulite with minor eclogite‐facies shear zones, thus representing th…
Polyester microplastic fibers affect soil physical properties and erosion as a function of soil type
2021
Microplastics are recognized as a factor of global change contaminating many environmental compartments. Agricultural soils are very likely to receive microplastic contamination and are of particular concern due to their role in food production. Microplastic fibers have already been shown to be able to affect soil properties, but their effect on different soil types is poorly understood. Moreover, limited information is available on how the presence of this pollutant can affect soil water erosion processes, which are extremely important issues in many environments. In the light of this, we performed two experiments (carried out on a microscale) to investigate how the presence of polyester m…
Soil fungi invest into asexual sporulation under resource scarcity, but trait spaces of individual isolates are unique
2022
During the last few decades, a plethora of sequencing studies provided insight into fungal community composition under various environmental conditions. Still, the mechanisms of species assembly and fungal spread in soil remain largely unknown. While mycelial growth patterns are studied extensively, the abundant formation of asexual spores is often overlooked, though representing a substantial part of the fungal life cycle relevant for survival and dispersal. Here, we explore asexual sporulation (spore abundance, size and shape) in 32 co-occurring soil fungal isolates under varying resource conditions, to answer the question whether resource limitation triggers or inhibits fungal investment…
