  text: The four microsporangia of the flowering plant anther develop from archesporial
    cells in the L2 of the primordium. Within each microsporangium, developing microsporocytes
    are surrounded by concentric monolayers of tapetal, middle layer and endothecial
    cells. How this intricate array of tissues, each containing relatively few cells,
    is established in an organ possessing no formal meristems is poorly understood.
    We describe here the pivotal role of the LRR receptor kinase EXCESS MICROSPOROCYTES
    1 (EMS1) in forming the monolayer of tapetal nurse cells in Arabidopsis. Unusually
    for plants, tapetal cells are specified very early in development, and are subsequently
    stimulated to proliferate by a receptor-like kinase (RLK) complex that includes
    EMS1. Mutations in members of this EMS1 signalling complex and its putative ligand
    result in male-sterile plants in which tapetal initials fail to proliferate. Surprisingly,
    these cells continue to develop, isolated at the locular periphery. Mutant and
    wild-type microsporangia expand at similar rates and the ‘tapetal’ space at the
    periphery of mutant locules becomes occupied by microsporocytes. However, induction
    of late expression of EMS1 in the few tapetal initials in ems1 plants results
    in their proliferation to generate a functional tapetum, and this proliferation
    suppresses microsporocyte number. Our experiments also show that integrity of
    the tapetal monolayer is crucial for the maintenance of the polarity of divisions
    within it. This unexpected autonomy of the tapetal ‘lineage’ is discussed in the
    context of tissue development in complex plant organs, where constancy in size,
    shape and cell number is crucial.

  text: Key steps in the evolution of the angiosperm anther include the patterning
    of the concentrically organized microsporangium and the incorporation of four
    such microsporangia into a leaf-like structure. Mutant studies in the model plant
    Arabidopsis thaliana are leading to an increasingly accurate picture of (i) the
    cell lineages culminating in the different cell types present in the microsporangium
    (the microsporocytes, the tapetum, and the middle and endothecial layers), and
    (ii) some of the genes responsible for specifying their fates. However, the processes
    that confer polarity on the developing anther and position the microsporangia
    within it remain unclear. Certainly, data from a range of experimental strategies
    suggest that hormones play a central role in establishing polarity and the patterning
    of the anther initial, and may be responsible for locating the microsporangia.
    But the fact that microsporangia were originally positioned externally suggests
    that their development is likely to be autonomous, perhaps with the reproductive
    cells generating signals controlling the growth and division of the investing
    anther epidermis. These possibilities are discussed in the context of the expression
    of genes which initiate and maintain male and female reproductive development,
    and in the perspective of our current views of anther evolution.

  text: 'Biological traits result in part from interactions between different genetic
    loci. This can lead to sign epistasis, in which a beneficial adaptation involves
    a combination of individually deleterious or neutral mutations; in this case,
    a population must cross a “fitness valley” to adapt. Recombination can assist
    this process by combining mutations from different individuals or retard it by
    breaking up the adaptive combination. Here, we analyze the simplest fitness valley,
    in which an adaptation requires one mutation at each of two loci to provide a
    fitness benefit. We present a theoretical analysis of the effect of recombination
    on the valley-crossing process across the full spectrum of possible parameter
    regimes. We find that low recombination rates can speed up valley crossing relative
    to the asexual case, while higher recombination rates slow down valley crossing,
    with the transition between the two regimes occurring when the recombination rate
    between the loci is approximately equal to the selective advantage provided by
    the adaptation. In large populations, if the recombination rate is high and selection
    against single mutants is substantial, the time to cross the valley grows exponentially
    with population size, effectively meaning that the population cannot acquire the
    adaptation. Recombination at the optimal (low) rate can reduce the valley-crossing
    time by up to several orders of magnitude relative to that in an asexual population. '

  text: 'This chapter tackles a difficult challenge: presenting signal processing
    material to non-experts. This chapter is meant to be comprehensible to people
    who have some math background, including a course in linear algebra and basic

    Some formulas assume the reader is familiar with matrices and basic matrix operations,
    but not more advanced material. Furthermore, we tried to make the chapter readable
    even if you skip the formulas. Nevertheless, we include some simple methods to
    demonstrate the basics of adaptive data processing, then we proceed with some
    advanced methods that are fundamental in adaptive signal processing, and are likely
    to be useful in a variety of applications. The advanced algorithms are also online
    available [30]. In the second part, these techniques are applied to some real-world
    BCI data.'

  text: We present ABC, a software tool for automatically computing symbolic upper
    bounds on the number of iterations of nested program loops. The system combines
    static analysis of programs with symbolic summation techniques to derive loop
    invariant relations between program variables. Iteration bounds are obtained from
    the inferred invariants, by replacing variables with bounds on their greatest
    values. We have successfully applied ABC to a large number of examples. The derived
    symbolic bounds express non-trivial polynomial relations over loop variables.
    We also report on results to automatically infer symbolic expressions over harmonic
    numbers as upper bounds on loop iteration counts.

  text: We address the problem of localizing homology classes, namely, finding the
    cycle representing a given class with the most concise geometric measure. We focus
    on the volume measure, that is, the 1-norm of a cycle. Two main results are presented.
    First, we prove the problem is NP-hard to approximate within any constant factor.
    Second, we prove that for homology of dimension two or higher, the problem is
    NP-hard to approximate even when the Betti number is O(1). A side effect is the
    inapproximability of the problem of computing the nonbounding cycle with the smallest
    volume, and computing cycles representing a homology basis with the minimal total
    volume. We also discuss other geometric measures (diameter and radius) and show
    their disadvantages in homology localization. Our work is restricted to homology
    over the ℤ2 field.

  text: "Background: The availability of many gene alignments with overlapping taxon
    sets raises the question of which strategy is the best to infer species phylogenies
    from multiple gene information. Methods and programs abound that use the gene
    alignment in different ways to reconstruct the species tree. In particular, different
    methods combine the original data at different points along the way from the underlying
    sequences to the final tree. Accordingly, they are classified into superalignment,
    supertree and medium-level approaches. Here, we present a simulation study to
    compare different methods from each of these three approaches.\r\n\r\nResults:
    We observe that superalignment methods usually outperform the other approaches
    over a wide range of parameters including sparse data and gene-specific evolutionary
    parameters. In the presence of high incongruency among gene trees, however, other
    combination methods show better performance than the superalignment approach.
    Surprisingly, some supertree and medium-level methods exhibit, on average, worse
    results than a single gene phylogeny with complete taxon information.\r\n\r\nConclusions:
    For some methods, using the reconstructed gene tree as an estimation of the species
    tree is superior to the combination of incomplete information. Superalignment
    usually performs best since it is less susceptible to stochastic error. Supertree
    methods can outperform superalignment in the presence of gene-tree conflict."

  text: Eukaryotic cytosine methylation represses transcription but also occurs in
    the bodies of active genes, and the extent of methylation biology conservation
    is unclear. We quantified DNA methylation in 17 eukaryotic genomes and found that
    gene body methylation is conserved between plants and animals, whereas selective
    methylation of transposons is not. We show that methylation of plant transposons
    in the CHG context extends to green algae and that exclusion of histone H2A.Z
    from methylated DNA is conserved between plants and animals, and we present evidence
    for RNA-directed DNA methylation of fungal genes. Our data demonstrate that extant
    DNA methylation systems are mosaics of conserved and derived features, and indicate
    that gene body methylation is an ancient property of eukaryotic genomes.

  text: 'Cytosine methylation silences transposable elements in plants, vertebrates,
    and fungi but also regulates gene expression. Plant methylation is catalyzed by
    three families of enzymes, each with a preferred sequence context: CG, CHG (H
    = A, C, or T), and CHH, with CHH methylation targeted by the RNAi pathway. Arabidopsis
    thaliana endosperm, a placenta-like tissue that nourishes the embryo, is globally
    hypomethylated in the CG context while retaining high non-CG methylation. Global
    methylation dynamics in seeds of cereal crops that provide the bulk of human nutrition
    remain unknown. Here, we show that rice endosperm DNA is hypomethylated in all
    sequence contexts. Non-CG methylation is reduced evenly across the genome, whereas
    CG hypomethylation is localized. CHH methylation of small transposable elements
    is increased in embryos, suggesting that endosperm demethylation enhances transposon
    silencing. Genes preferentially expressed in endosperm, including those coding
    for major storage proteins and starch synthesizing enzymes, are frequently hypomethylated
    in endosperm, indicating that DNA methylation is a crucial regulator of rice endosperm
    biogenesis. Our data show that genome-wide reshaping of seed DNA methylation is
    conserved among angiosperms and has a profound effect on gene expression in cereal
    crops.'

  text: Cytosine methylation is an ancient process with conserved enzymology but diverse
    biological functions that include defense against transposable elements and regulation
    of gene expression. Here we will discuss the evolution and biological significance
    of eukaryotic DNA methylation, the likely drivers of that evolution, and major
    remaining mysteries.

  text: 'Classical models of gene flow fail in three ways: they cannot explain large-scale
    patterns; they predict much more genetic diversity than is observed; and they
    assume that loosely linked genetic loci evolve independently. We propose a new
    model that deals with these problems. Extinction events kill some fraction of
    individuals in a region. These are replaced by offspring from a small number of
    parents, drawn from the preexisting population. This model of evolution forwards
    in time corresponds to a backwards model, in which ancestral lineages jump to
    a new location if they are hit by an event, and may coalesce with other lineages
    that are hit by the same event. We derive an expression for the identity in allelic
    state, and show that, over scales much larger than the largest event, this converges
    to the classical value derived by Wright and Malécot. However, rare events that
    cover large areas cause low genetic diversity, large-scale patterns, and correlations
    in ancestry between unlinked loci.'

  text: 'Streaming string transducers [1] define (partial) functions from input strings
    to output strings. A streaming string transducer makes a single pass through the
    input string and uses a finite set of variables that range over strings from the
    output alphabet. At every step, the transducer processes an input symbol, and
    updates all the variables in parallel using assignments whose right-hand-sides
    are concatenations of output symbols and variables with the restriction that a
    variable can be used at most once in a right-hand-side expression. It has been
    shown that streaming string transducers operating on strings over infinite data
    domains are of interest in algorithmic verification of list-processing programs,
    as they lead to PSPACE decision procedures for checking pre/post conditions and
    for checking semantic equivalence, for a well-defined class of heap-manipulating
    programs. In order to understand the theoretical expressiveness of streaming transducers,
    we focus on streaming transducers processing strings over finite alphabets, given
    the existence of a robust and well-studied class of &quot;regular&quot; transductions
    for this case. Such regular transductions can be defined either by two-way deterministic
    finite-state transducers, or using a logical MSO-based characterization. Our main
    result is that the expressiveness of streaming string transducers coincides exactly
    with this class of regular transductions. '

  text: 'Graph games of infinite length are a natural model for open reactive processes:
    one player represents the controller, trying to ensure a given specification,
    and the other represents a hostile environment. The evolution of the system depends
    on the decisions of both players, supplemented by chance. In this work, we focus
    on the notion of randomised strategy. More specifically, we show that three natural
    definitions may lead to very different results: in the most general cases, an
    almost-surely winning situation may become almost-surely losing if the player
    is only allowed to use a weaker notion of strategy. In more reasonable settings,
    translations exist, but they require infinite memory, even in simple cases. Finally,
    some traditional problems becomes undecidable for the strongest type of strategies.'

  text: Any programming error that can be revealed before compiling a program saves
    precious time for the programmer. While integrated development environments already
    do a good job by detecting, e.g., data-flow abnormalities, current static analysis
    tools suffer from false positives (&quot;noise&quot;) or require strong user interaction.
    We propose to avoid this deficiency by defining a new class of errors. A program
    fragment is doomed if its execution will inevitably fail, regardless of which
    state it is started in. We use a formal verification method to identify such errors
    fully automatically and, most significantly, without producing noise. We report
    on experiments with a prototype tool.

  text: "We present an algorithmic method for the synthesis of concurrent programs
    that are optimal with respect to quantitative performance measures. The input
    consists of a sequential sketch, that is, a program that does not contain synchronization
    constructs, and of a parametric performance model that assigns costs to actions
    such as locking, context switching, and idling. The quantitative synthesis problem
    is to automatically introduce synchronization constructs into the sequential sketch
    so that both correctness is guaranteed and worst-case (or average-case) performance
    is optimized. Correctness is formalized as race freedom or linearizability.\r\n\r\nWe
    show that for worst-case performance, the problem can be modeled\r\nas a 2-player
    graph game with quantitative (limit-average) objectives, and\r\nfor average-case
    performance, as a 2 1/2 -player graph game (with probabilistic transitions). In
    both cases, the optimal correct program is derived from an optimal strategy in
    the corresponding quantitative game. We prove that the respective game problems
    are computationally expensive (NP-complete), and present several techniques that
    overcome the theoretical difficulty in cases of concurrent programs of practical
    interest.\r\n\r\nWe have implemented a prototype tool and used it for the automatic
    syn- thesis of programs that access a concurrent list. For certain parameter val-
    ues, our method automatically synthesizes various classical synchronization schemes
    for implementing a concurrent list, such as fine-grained locking or a lazy algorithm.
    For other parameter values, a new, hybrid synchronization style is synthesized,
    which uses both the lazy approach and coarse-grained locks (instead of standard
    fine-grained locks). The trade-off occurs because while fine-grained locking tends
    to decrease the cost that is due to waiting for locks, it increases cache size
    requirements."

  text: Boolean notions of correctness are formalized by preorders on systems. Quantitative
    measures of correctness can be formalized by real-valued distance functions between
    systems, where the distance between implementation and specification provides
    a measure of “fit” or “desirability.” We extend the simulation preorder to the
    quantitative setting, by making each player of a simulation game pay a certain
    price for her choices. We use the resulting games with quantitative objectives
    to define three different simulation distances. The correctness distance measures
    how much the specification must be changed in order to be satisfied by the implementation.
    The coverage distance measures how much the im- plementation restricts the degrees
    of freedom offered by the specification. The robustness distance measures how
    much a system can deviate from the implementation description without violating
    the specification. We consider these distances for safety as well as liveness
    specifications. The distances can be computed in polynomial time for safety specifications,
    and for liveness specifications given by weak fairness constraints. We show that
    the distance functions satisfy the triangle inequality, that the distance between
    two systems does not increase under parallel composition with a third system,
    and that the distance between two systems can be bounded from above and below
    by distances between abstractions of the two systems. These properties suggest
    that our simulation distances provide an appropriate basis for a quantitative
    theory of discrete systems. We also demonstrate how the robustness distance can
    be used to measure how many transmission errors are tolerated by error correcting
    codes.

  text: The class of ω regular languages provide a robust specification language in
    verification. Every ω-regular condition can be decomposed into a safety part and
    a liveness part. The liveness part ensures that something good happens “eventually.”
    Two main strengths of the classical, infinite-limit formulation of liveness are
    robustness (independence from the granularity of transitions) and simplicity (abstraction
    of complicated time bounds). However, the classical liveness formulation suffers
    from the drawback that the time until something good happens may be unbounded.
    A stronger formulation of liveness, so-called finitary liveness, overcomes this
    drawback, while still retaining robustness and simplicity. Finitary liveness requires
    that there exists an unknown, fixed bound b such that something good happens within
    b transitions. In this work we consider the finitary parity and Streett (fairness)
    conditions. We present the topological, automata-theoretic and logical characterization
    of finitary languages defined by finitary parity and Streett conditions. We (a)
    show that the finitary parity and Streett languages are Σ2-complete; (b) present
    a complete characterization of the expressive power of various classes of automata
    with finitary and infinitary conditions (in particular we show that non-deterministic
    finitary parity and Streett automata cannot be determinized to deterministic finitary
    parity or Streett automata); and (c) show that the languages defined by non-deterministic
    finitary parity automata exactly characterize the star-free fragment of ωB-regular
    languages.

  text: Concurrent data structures with fine-grained synchronization are notoriously
    difficult to implement correctly. The difficulty of reasoning about these implementations
    does not stem from the number of variables or the program size, but rather from
    the large number of possible interleavings. These implementations are therefore
    prime candidates for model checking. We introduce an algorithm for verifying linearizability
    of singly-linked heap-based concurrent data structures. We consider a model consisting
    of an unbounded heap where each node consists an element from an unbounded data
    domain, with a restricted set of operations for testing and updating pointers
    and data elements. Our main result is that linearizability is decidable for programs
    that invoke a fixed number of methods, possibly in parallel. This decidable fragment
    covers many of the common implementation techniques — fine-grained locking, lazy
    synchronization, and lock-free synchronization. We also show how the technique
    can be used to verify optimistic implementations with the help of programmer annotations.
    We developed a verification tool CoLT and evaluated it on a representative sample
    of Java implementations of the concurrent set data structure. The tool verified
    linearizability of a number of implementations, found a known error in a lock-free
    imple- mentation and proved that the corrected version is linearizable.

  text: We investigated temporal changes in hybridization and introgression between
    native red deer (Cervus elaphus) and invasive Japanese sika (Cervus nippon) on
    the Kintyre Peninsula, Scotland, over 15 years, through analysis of 1513 samples
    of deer at 20 microsatellite loci and a mtDNA marker. We found no evidence that
    either the proportion of recent hybrids, or the levels of introgression had changed
    over the study period. Nevertheless, in one population where the two species have
    been in contact since ∼1970, 44% of individuals sampled during the study were
    hybrids. This suggests that hybridization between these species can proceed fairly
    rapidly. By analysing the number of alleles that have introgressed from polymorphic
    red deer into the genetically homogenous sika population, we reconstructed the
    haplotypes of red deer alleles introduced by backcrossing. Five separate hybridization
    events could account for all the recently hybridized sika-like individuals found
    across a large section of the Peninsula. Although we demonstrate that low rates
    of F1 hybridization can lead to substantial introgression, the progress of hybridization
    and introgression appears to be unpredictable over the short timescales.
