Dynamics of Heat Transfer Analysis of Convective-Radiative Fins with Variable Thermal Conductivity and Heat Generation: Differential Transformation Method
The study of convective heat transfer in differently shaped fins with radiation, internal heat generation and variable thermal conductivity was considered. The energy equation of the model was converted into the dimensionless form by adopting the proper variables, which was later solved using the differential transformation method. The impact of the parameters on the thermal performance, efficiency and heat transfer of the fins was analyzed graphically and also by performing thermal analysis on the fins. It was noticed that there was a significant effect on the thermal performance of the fins with different shapes, and also the heat transfer rate of the fin increased for improved values of the internal heat generation and radiation parameters. The exponential profile showed better results than other profiles, and the results obtained were supported by thermal analysis using ANSYS software

MSH2 shapes the meiotic crossover landscape in relation to interhomolog polymorphism in Arabidopsis
During meiosis, DNA double-strand breaks undergo interhomolog repair to yield crossovers between homologous chromosomes. To investigate how interhomolog sequence polymorphism affects crossovers, we sequenced multiple recombinant populations of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Crossovers were elevated in the diverse pericentromeric regions, showing a local preference for polymorphic regions. We provide evidence that crossover association with elevated diversity is mediated via the Class I crossover formation pathway, although very high levels of diversity suppress crossovers. Interhomolog polymorphism causes mismatches in recombining molecules, which can be detected by MutS homolog (MSH) mismatch repair protein heterodimers. Therefore, we mapped crossovers in a msh2 mutant, defective in mismatch recognition, using multiple hybrid backgrounds. Although total crossover numbers were unchanged in msh2 mutants, recombination was remodelled from the diverse pericentromeres towards the less-polymorphic sub-telomeric regions. Juxtaposition of megabase heterozygous and homozygous regions causes crossover remodelling towards the heterozygous regions in wild type Arabidopsis, but not in msh2 mutants. Immunostaining showed that MSH2 protein accumulates on meiotic chromosomes during prophase I, consistent with MSH2 regulating meiotic recombination. Our results reveal a pro-crossover role for MSH2 in regions of higher sequence diversity in A. thaliana
