Abstract:
... High ethylene production in dense-panicle rice cultivars impacts grain filling. 1-MCP (ethylene action inhibitor) treatment increased assimilates partitioning, cell number and size and expression of starch synthesizing enzyme genes of developing caryopses mostly in the basal spikelets of panicle at early post-anthesis stage. The gain in cell number was less compared to the increase of size. High e ...

Abstract:
... Despite the important progress that has been made on dosage compensation (DC), a critical link in our understanding of the X chromosome recognition mechanisms is still missing. Recent studies in Drosophila indicate that the missing link could be a family of DNA repeats populating the euchromatin of the X chromosome. In this opinion article, I discuss how these findings add a new fresh twist on the ...

IL-10 levels may be influenced by HPV itself and by IL-10 polymorphisms, including rs1800872 (c.-592C>A). Therefore, we evaluated the influence of IL-10 c.-592C>A polymorphism in HPV infection and in IL-10 plasmatic/cervical levels in HPV infected and non-infected ...

However, dPCR shows large fluctuations in the fluorescence intensity of droplets or wells due to insufficient PCR amplification in the small partitions, limiting the multiplexing capability of using the fluorescence intensity. In this study, we propose a measur ...
