Haplotype-phased 'Ottawa 3' genome unravels differential reaction of apple rootstock roots to mixed viral infection. [PDF]
Plant JSUMMARY Viral diseases pose a significant threat to global apple (Malus spp.) production. While selecting appropriate rootstocks is a crucial strategy to mitigate their effects, the underlying mechanisms governing rootstock tolerance or sensitivity to viral infection at the root level remain underexplored.

Estimated Vestibulogram (EVEST) for Effective Vestibular Assessment. [PDF]
Biomed Res Int, 2021 Background. The availability and development of methods testing the vestibuloocular reflex (VOR) brought a broader view into the lateral semicircular canal (L‐SCC) function. However, the higher number of evaluated parameters makes more difficult the specialist’s diagnose‐making process. Purpose.
