“Foids have no soul, they are not human.” A sociological examination of the language used by an online male supremacy group.
(2020-06-01)The online incel community has seen a rise in participation and mainstream media attention, largely due to recent mass murders targeting women committed by self-identified members. Scholarship has therefore focused on the ... -
Forensic analysis of unallocated space
(2011-06-01)Computer forensics has become an important technology in providing evidence in investigations of computer misuse, attacks against computer systems and more traditional crimes like money laundering and fraud where digital ... -
Forensic electrochemistry: time since deposition (TSD) estimation of degrading bloodstains using differential pulse voltammetry
(2021-12-01)Methods for bloodstain time since deposition (TSD) estimation are still in development. Hemoglobin (Hb) oxidative changes remain one of the primary means of bloodstain aging. This research explores the use of differential ... -
Forward and reverse genetic approaches to investigate cellulose biosynthesis in Physcomitrium patens
(2021-04-01)Cellulose biosynthesis is a common feature of land plants and involves multimeric complexes composed of cellulose synthase A (CESA) proteins and other structural proteins. The exact stoichiometry of CESA proteins and ... -
Forward genetic analysis of cellulose biosynthesis inhibitor resistance and wall hydrolysis sensitivity.
(2014-09-01)The functional analysis of components involved in cellulose biosynthesis is central in understanding cell wall assembly and structure in plants. We conducted screens using the herbicides, isoxaben and flupoxam which inhibit ... -
Forward screening for herbicide resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana and the monocot species Triticum aestivum
(2019-06-01)Cellulose is the primary structural component of plant cell walls and is composed of β-1,4-glucan chains. The cellulose synthesis complex is composed of multiple cellulose synthases (CESAs), which work together to extend ... -
