Amino Acids Are an Ineffective Fertilizer for Dunaliella spp. Growth
(Frontiers, 2017-05-26)Autotrophic microalgae are a promising bioproducts platform. However, the fundamental requirements these organisms have for nitrogen fertilizer severely limit the impact and scale of their cultivation. As an alternative ... -
An Amphipathic Alpha-Helix Domain from Poliovirus 2C Protein Tubulate Lipid Vesicles
(MDPI, 2020-12-18)Positive-strand RNA viruses universally remodel host intracellular membranes to form membrane-bound viral replication complexes, where viral offspring RNAs are synthesized. In the majority of cases, viral replication ... -
Analyse des modes d'élevage et des ressources pastorales dans la commune rurale de Madiama
(2001)La commune rural de Madiama est confrontée à des conflits liés à lexploitation des ressources naturelles limitées dont les stratégies d'utilisation actuelles (agriculture, élevage et pêche° sont inadaptées (ESPGRN, 1996). ... -
Analysis of T-DNA alleles of flavonoid biosynthesis genes in Arabidopsis ecotype Columbia
(2012-09-04)BACKGROUND: The flavonoid pathway is a long-standing and important tool for plant genetics, biochemistry, and molecular biology. Numerous flavonoid mutants have been identified in Arabidopsis over the past several decades ... -
Analysis of the modes of breeding and pastoral resources in the rural community of Madiama, Mopti Region, Republic of Mali
(2001)Available also as a conference paper. -
Antibiotics ameliorate lupus-like symptoms in mice
(Nature, 2017-10-20)Gut microbiota and the immune system interact to maintain tissue homeostasis, but whether this interaction is involved in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is unclear. Here we report that oral antibiotics ... -
Antioxidant metabolism variation associated with alkali-salt tolerance in thirty switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) lines
(PLOS, 2018-06-25)Soil salinization is a major factor limiting crop growth and development in many areas. Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) is an important warm-season grass species used for biofuel production. The objective of this study ... -
Apple miRNAs and tasiRNAs with novel regulatory networks
(2012-06-15)Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and their regulatory functions have been extensively characterized in model species but whether apple has evolved similar or unique regulatory features remains unknown. Results We performed ... -
Apple Pollen Tube Growth Rates Are Regulated by Parentage and Environment
A greater understanding of apple (Malus domestica) pollen tube growth rates can improve crop load management in commercial orchards. Specifically, applications of caustic bloom-thinning chemicals need to occur when enough, ... -
Application of alignment-free bioinformatics methods to identify an oomycete protein with structural and functional similarity to the bacterial AvrE effector protein
(PLOS, 2018-04-11)Diverse plant pathogens export effector proteins to reprogram host cells. One of the most challenging goals in the molecular plant-microbe field is to functionally characterize the complex repertoires of effectors secreted ... -
Application of biochar to soils may result in plant contamination and human cancer risk due to exposure of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(2018-12)Biochars are added to soil to improve agronomic yield. This greenhouse- and field-scale study evaluated poly cyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) contamination in 35 commercial and laboratory-produced biochars, and assessed ... -
Application of Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy for Detection of Bacterial Fruit Blotch Disease
(2017-09-13)Bacterial fruit blotch (BFB), caused by Acidovorax citrulli affects the production of cucurbits worldwide, and causes substantial economic losses. Since cucurbit seeds are the most important source of inoculum for BFB ... -
Applications of High-Resolution Imaging for Open Field Container Nursery Counting
(MDPI, 2018-12-12)Frequent inventory data of container nurseries is needed by growers to ensure proper management and marketing strategies. In this paper, inventory data are estimated from aerial images. Since there are thousands of nursery ... -
Artificial topography changes the growth strategy of Spartina alterniflora, case study with wave exposure as a comparison
(Springer Nature, 2017-11-17)This paper reports findings about the growth of Spartina alterniflora (Loisel.) near an engineered coastal protection defences to discover the potential influences on vegetation growth from the artificial topography. Impacts ... -
