PHYLOGENETIC DISTRIBUTION OF INTRON POSITIONS IN ALPHA-AMYLASE GENES OF BILATERIA SUGGESTS NUMEROUS GAINS AND LOSSES.

Phylogenetic distribution of intron positions in alpha-amylase genes of bilateria suggests numerous gains and losses.

Most eukaryotes have at least some genes interrupted by introns.While it is well accepted that introns were already present at moderate density in the last eukaryote common ancestor, the conspicuous diversity of intron density among genomes suggests a complex evolutionary history, with marked differences between phyla.The question of the rates of i

Distributionally robust optimization for virtual power plant clusters considering carbon emission-based dynamic dispatch priority

A virtual power plant (VPP) is an effective way to manage distributed energy resources.Virtual power plant cluster (VPPC) is constructed due to the increasing number of VPPs.It has great potential in carbon emission reduction through coordination between VPPs.Therefore, a dynamic dispatch priority model is proposed.The click here model adjusts the
