Unilateral chewing of foods. Analysis of energy balance and peak power of the mandibular elevator muscles by Przemysław Stróżyk, Jacek Bałchanowski

“…The results indicate that (1) food height and texture significantly affect muscle energy and (2) the masticatory and medial pterygoid muscles generate more incredible energy and peak power on the working side than on the non working side, while the opposite was observed for the temporalis muscle and (3) comparative analysis showed that food position on the dental arch has a more significant effect on muscle peak power for foods with high texture heterogeneity than for foods with low texture heterogeneity.…”

Divergence and convergence in epiphytic and endophytic phyllosphere bacterial communities of rice landraces by Pratibha Sanjenbam, Deepa Agashe

“…Seeds sampled from a focal landrace did not support vertical transmission of phyllosphere bacteria, suggesting that both types of communities are assembled anew each generation. Despite these points of convergence, epiphytic communities had distinct composition and significantly higher microbial load and were more rich, diverse, modular, and unstable than endophytic communities. …”
