Are plants with anti-cancer activity resistant to crown gall? : A test of hypothesis [PDF]
The Crown gall tumour assay (CGTA) is one of several bench top bioassays recommended for the rapid screening of plants with anti-cancer activity. The rationale for the use of the bioassay is that the tumorogenic mechanism initiated in plant tissues by ...

Wood and Bark Anatomy of Myricaceae: Relationships, Generic Definitions, and Ecological Interpretations [PDF]
Wood anatomy of the single species of Canacomyrica (hitherto not studied) shows that it belongs in Myricaceae, although it differs from other genera in several respects (axial parenchyma grouped in bands or columns as well as diffuse; Heterogeneous Type ...

The Immunological Correlation With Adenoid Hypertrophy and Allergic Rhinitis in Children
The imbalance of Th1/Th2 and Th17/Treg cells in allergen and inflammatory responses might be associated with the development of adenoid hypertrophy, suggesting that allergic rhinitis maybe the risk factor of AH and providing a potential alternative explanation for adenoid hypertrophy pathogenesis.

Seasonal variation in wild pig (Sus scrofa) diet revealed by DNA metabarcoding
Using DNA metabarcoding of fecal samples, we investigated the diet of wild pigs at an extensive bottomland hardwood forest ecosystem within Felsenthal National Wildlife Refuge in Southern Arkansas. We found that wild pig diet was highly diverse and included at least 74 plant families and 106 genera and 23 species of vertebrates.

A workflow for practical training in plant genomics using Oxford Nanopore long‐read sequencing
Advances in DNA sequencing technologies are revolutionising all areas of plant genomic research. In response to the current deficit of educational resources in modern plant genomic methods, we have developed a comprehensive genomics training course for sequencing and analysing non‐model plant species.
