Muller's discovery created a media sensation after he delivered a paper entitled " The Problem of Genetic Modification " at the Fifth International Congress of Genetics in Berlin ; it would make him one of the better known public intellectuals of the early 20th century.

In contrast, the genomes of mitochondria and chloroplasts do not recombine and would undergo Muller's ratchet were they not as small as they are.

The Kino Flo light, now a ubiquitous tool in the film industry, was specially created by Robby Muller's electrical crew for a scene in this film which would have been difficult to light using the conventional lampheads available at the time.

The shuffling of genes brought about by genetic recombination is thought to have many advantages, as it is a major engine of genetic variation and also allows sexually reproducing organisms to avoid Muller's ratchet, in which the genomes of an asexual population accumulate deleterious mutations in an irreversible manner.

Bill Pronzini and Marcia Muller's have their fictional detective spot Millhone at a convention in Chicago.

Besides the gemstone varieties that show a play of color, there are other kinds of common opal such as the milk opal, milky bluish to greenish ( which can sometimes be of gemstone quality ); resin opal, which is honey-yellow with a resinous luster ; wood opal, which is caused by the replacement of the organic material in wood with opal ; menilite, which is brown or grey ; hyalite, a colorless glass-clear opal sometimes called Muller's Glass ; geyserite, also called siliceous sinter, deposited around hot springs or geysers ; and diatomite or diatomaceous earth, the accumulations of diatom shells or tests.

Although Muller's ratchet is proposed to explain the success of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction, the negative effect of accumulating irreversible deleterious mutations may not be prevalent in organisms which, while they reproduce asexually, also undergo other forms of recombination.

In sexually reproducing organisms non-recombining chromosomes or chromosomal regions such as the mammalian Y chromosome ( with the exception of multi-copy sequences which do engage intrachromosomal recombination and gene conversion ), should also be subject to the effects of Muller's ratchet.

Muller's suit stated that Lockheed allowed for " dangerous materials to be incorporated in the fuselage ," that there was no vent system to distribute the gases away from the passengers, and that a sufficient oxygen system did not exist.

Muller's method is based on the secant method, which constructs at every iteration a line through two points on the graph of f. Instead, Muller's method uses three points, constructs the parabola through these three points, and takes the intersection of the x-axis with the parabola to be the next approximation.

That ended up being the final score, with Muller's goal turning out to be the game winner.

When quadratic interpolation is used instead, one arrives at Muller's method.

On August 4, 1985, a gun shootout occurred at the FRG Sports Complex — formerly known as Muller's Park — directly next to Oakland's former swimming park located along the Ramapo River called Pleasureland.

The room was bathed in light at the instant Muller's second shot came.

Also present is Muller's daughter Caroline, nicknamed Cathy, then a senior medical student at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

According to Encyclopædia Britannica, Max's Muller's efforts were most successful in the case of the Semites, whose affinities are easy to demonstrate, and probably least successful in the case of the Turanian peoples, whose early origins are hypothetical.

Muller, referring to the date of a recent extinction at 11 million years before the present day, posits that Nemesis has a semi-major axis of about and suggests it is located ( supported by Yarris, 1987 ) near Hydra, based on a hypothetical orbit derived from original apogees of a number of atypical long-period comets that describe an orbital arc meeting the specifications of Muller's hypothesis.

Richard Muller's most recent paper relevant to the Nemesis theory was published in 2002.

Continued fixation of deleterious alleles in small populations is called Muller's ratchet, and can lead to mutational meltdown.

Before the incident, Pleasureland and Muller's Park were popular summer destinations that had since the 1950s and earlier ( Muller's was built in 1935 ) attracted families from across the Tri-state area.

Pleasureland remained open for a brief period after the shooting incident at FRG, but FRG / Muller's Park never reopened after that day.

The college was mainly housed in the former Muller's Orphanage at Ashley Down, Bristol, which still houses part of the City of Bristol College whilst the remainder has been converted into residential housing.

Sharon McCone, the protagonist of Marcia Muller's 2009 suspense novel Locked In is the founder of a successful San Francisco detective agency.

In the fly group, Muller's contributions were primarily theoretical: explanations for experimental results and ideas and predictions for new experiments.

Muller's work was increasingly focused on mutation rate and lethal mutations.

In his early years at Texas, Muller's Drosophila work was slow going ; the data from his mutation rate studies were difficult to interpret.

Muller's house in Bloomington, Indiana.

Muller's publication rate decreased greatly in this period, from a combination of lack of lab workers and experimentally challenging projects.

Muller's appointment was ended after the 1944 – 1945 academic year, and despite difficulties stemming from his socialist political activities, he found a position as professor of zoology at Indiana University.

He has contributed chapters to a number of books, including James W. Muller's Churchill as Peacemaker, Raphael Israeli's The Dangers of a Palestinian State and Uri Ra ' anan's Hydra of Carnage: International Linkages of Terrorism, as well as serving as co-editor for Israel's Legitimacy in Law and History.

`` What would you have done in Montero's moccasins??

As I dug in behind one of the bales we were using as protection, I grudgingly found myself agreeing with Oso's logic, especially when I imagined what would have happened to Missy if Old Knife's large party of screeching warriors had overrun our company.

An hour before, with the children asleep and nothing but the strange darkness, he would have appreciated company.

There were three other men within this prison whom Barton would have liked to liberate, but they were in other cell blocks.

The only thing which would have attracted attention was that two wore the uniform of prison guards, three the striped suits of convicts.

It was there that she would have to enact her renunciation, beg forgiveness.

A few days ago, she would have thought such an expedition as this utterly ridiculous ; ;

His presence would have interfered with her duty.

A man like Jess would want to have a ready means of escape in case it was needed.

An inch lower and it would have knocked him out.

Black would have little trouble getting out, but it might delay him a few minutes.

Yet had he not visited the girl at Saw Buck he would never have been involved in this latest tangle.

`` Gyp Carmer couldn't have known about Colcord's money unless he was told -- and who else would have told him ''??

They would have to go west through the narrow river valley that separated Leyte from Samar and hope that it didn't close in before they returned.

I would have foregone my romantic chances rather than leave a friend sweltering and dusty and -- Well, at least I wouldn't have shouted back a taunt.

Johnson never would have believed she had a son that age.

Their product had been endorsed by Good Housekeeping, the A.M.A., and the Veterinary Journal, among other repositories of higher wisdom, and before much longer if you didn't have a cake of their soap in the john, even your best friends would think you didn't bathe.

She'd driven around for a while, Joyce said, then, thinking Louis Thor would have calmed down by that time, she'd gone back to his home on Bryn Mawr Drive, parked in front, and walked toward the pool.

If it were not for an old professor who made me read the classics I would have been stymied on what to do, and now I understand why they are classics ; ;

Her form was silhouetted and with the strong light I could see the outlines of her body, a body that an artist or anyone else would have admired.

It had been a mistake, but anything would have been a mistake, as it turned out.

Without money or property, what would you have had at Baton Rouge ''??

Now we peered anxiously for any speck of land in the Pacific, for this interminable bailing would have to stop soon.
