This species is mostly similar to Goniozus japonicus Ashmead, 1904 by having mandible yellow; by fore wing without areolet; by flagellomere 3–5 longer than wide respectively; by propodeal disc with complete transverse carina; by ratio of head and propodeal disc. However, this species can be distinguished from G. japonicus by short antennal segments, by pedicel to flagellomere 2 less than 1.5 × as long as wide, by flagellomere 11 1.5 × as long as wide (long antennal segments, pedicel to flagellomere 2 longer than 2.0 × as long as wide, flagellomere 11 2.0 × as long as wide in G. japonicus); by median and submedian cell of fore wing with relatively denser hairs (very sparse hairs in G. japonicus).

Mesosoma black; fore wing subhyaline, veins pale castaenous; legs yellow except coxa and femora dark castaenous, tarsal claw dark castaenous. Metasoma black except distal margin of terga 4–7 pale castaenous. Head (Figs 18–20): 1.0 × as long as wide, coriaceous; lateral margin convex, posterior margin straight, postero-lateral corner forming round angle in dorsal view; lateral surface smooth and polished.

Frons and vertex coriaceous with sub-erect hairs and sparse moderate punctures, aparted from each other 2.0–3.0 × as wide as their maximum diameter. WF 1.1 × LE, WF 0.6 × WH. Compound eye 0.37 mm long without hairs. LE 1.8 × OOL, WF 1.7 × WOT. Frontal angle of ocellar triangle obtuse, POL 2.1 × AOL, OOL 0.8 × WOT. Vertex coriaceous without conspicuous long hairs. Mesosoma (Figs 21–23): Pronotum coriaceous, 0.4 × as long as wide with sparse hairs, antero-lateral corner obtuse. Mesoscutum coriaceous; notauli absent; parapsidal furrows thin and anteriorly divergent. Scutellum polish and coriaceous with sparse small punctures; scutellar pit elliptical, oblique and connected by 3.9 × as wide as their maximum diameter. Propodeal disc 0.6 × as long as wide, lateral and transverse carina complete; medial basal triangle smooth and polished, extending mid-length of disc, connected to transverse carina with thin longitudinal carina in areolate surface. Disc areolate-rugose; declivity coriaceous with complete marginal carina; lateral surface coriaceous. Fore wing without closed areolate; median and submedian cell with two rows of hairs; radial vein curved outward at apex with obtuse angle; pterostigma 0.29 mm long; metacarpo absent. Metasoma (Fig. 24): Tergite 1 smooth and polished without fine puncture and microreticulation. Terga 2–4 smooth and micoreticulation on anterior half with some hairs on dorso-lateral surface. Terga 5–7 microreticulate with sparse hairs on distal surface. MALE. Unknown. Distribution.

    Measuring industry-science links through inventor-author relations: A profiling method

    No full text
    In this pilot study we examine the performance of text-based profiling in recovering a set of validated inventor-author links. In a first step we match patents and publications solely based on their similarity in content. Next, we compare inventor and author names on the highest ranked matches for the occurrence of name matches. Finally, we compare these candidate matches with the names listed in a validated set of inventor-author names. Our text-based profile methodology performs significantly better than a random matching of patents and publications, suggesting that text-based profiling is a valuable complementary tool to the name searches used in previous studies.innovation; industry-science links; text-based profiling;

    Nanomechanics of confined polymer systems

    No full text
    Polymers anchored to surfaces play an important role in nature and technology, and regulate diverse interfacial phenomena in areas such as tribology and colloidal stability. Polymers grafted to surfaces at high density form elongated “brushes” with characteristic lengths much larger than free coils in solution. These brushes can reduce interfacial friction and wear as well as impart fouling resistance to surfaces. In light of these functionalities it is important to understand the behaviour of surface-grafted polymers at the molecular and nanoscopic level. An emerging area of interest are polymers attached to nanopores. Theoretical studies predict interesting morphologies and dynamics of such confined brushes in and around nanopores, but nanopore environments have been difficult to study experimentally. In this thesis a unique polymer-functionalized nanopore-like experimental system is presented, functionalized with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is employed to probe the PEG brushes with nanometre spatial precision and sub-nanonewton force sensitivity, revealing novel dynamics depending on the local grafting position of PEG with respect to the nanopore geometry. Further, AFM is used together with fluorescence microscopy to show how polymer–protein interactions can be used together with the anti-fouling property of PEG to sort specific biomolecules from complex biological fluids to nanoscale targets. This shows a way how to confer biological recognition and specificity to synthetic nanoscale systems which is important for biosensing and bioseparation applications

    Reverse engineering of industrially relevant phenotypes in yeast: An integrated approach

    No full text
    Reverse engineering is the study of discovering the structure, function and operation of a device or system with the express aim to reconstruct its key functionalities. This principle is applied to many disciplines, from military, through computer engineering, to health, but also in metabolic engineering. In this context, reverse metabolic engineering examines a particular functionality or phenotype of a cell or culture and subsequently aims to reconstruct it, with the aid of targeted genetic modification, in another cell or culture. Even with increasing knowledge on targeted metabolic engineering, microbial production platforms for fuels and chemicals are often obtained by non-targeted approaches, such as mutagenesis or evolutionary engineering. Reverse engineering of the interesting traits of these microbial platforms not only provides the potential to implement and combine them in other hosts, but also allows for the protection of the resulting intellectual property. The major challenge in reverse metabolic engineering is the elucidation of the molecular mechanisms underlying the phenotype of the strains of interest. In this thesis, various techniques were evaluated for their application in reverse metabolic engineering of a diverse range of industrially relevant phenotypes in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Simultaneously, the different analytical methods that were used in these studies were evaluated for their individual and combined contributions.BiotechnologyApplied Science
