diversity‚ host range‚ and geographic distributions are unknown. To explore the putative hyperdiversity of tropical leaf endophytes‚ we compared endophyte communities along a broad latitudinal gradient from the Canadian arctic to the lowland tropical forest of central Panama. Here‚ we use molecular sequence data from 1403 endophyte strains to show that endophytes increase in incidence‚ diversity‚ and host breadth from arctic to tropical sites. Endophyte communities from higher latitudes are characterized

Science Study Notes An electrically uncharged object is neutral. Conduction is not a method of charging an object. If electric charged stay in one spot‚ they are said to be static. In charging by induction‚ when a negatively charged rod is brought near a metal leaf electroscope the electrons in the electroscope move away from the rod. A statement that is not part of the Law of Electric Charges is that neutral objects are attracted to uncharged objects. The purpose of a GFCI is to protect people from
