Role of supplemental foods and habitat structural complexity in persistence and coexistence of generalist predatory mites.

abstract：:Computer simulation provides an increasingly realistic picture of large-scale conformational change of proteins, but investigations remain fundamentally constrained by the femtosecond timestep of molecular dynamics simulations. For this reason, many biologically interesting questions cannot be addressed using accessib...
