COMBINING ABILITY IN COCONUT (Cocos nucifera)

open access: yesCORD, 1999
Combining ability has been proved to be a method to identify and select the parents and hybrids for increased production through the exploitation of heterosis. The exploitation of heterosis would be useful if suitable hybrids are produced for low yielding environmental conditions of littoral sandy soil.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Diallel analysis and genetic differentiation of tropical and temperate maize inbred lines

open access: yesCrop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2018
This study aimed to evaluate hybrids obtained by the cross among temperate × tropical elite maize lines, and to determine the genetic diversity and population differentiation of these inbred lines.

Adaptation of Diverse Maize Germplasm to Spring Season Conditions in Northeast China

open access: yesAgronomy
Northeast China (NEC) is a major spring maize (Zea mays L.) growing belt, and the outputs substantially influence national grain production. However, the maize grain yield per unit area has little changes in recent years, partially due to the lack of ...

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Medical Image Segmentation by Water Flow

open access: yes, 2007
We present a new image segmentation technique based on the paradigm of water flow and apply it to medical images. The force field analogy is used to implement the major water flow attributes like water pressure, surface tension and adhesion so that the ...

Combining ability of tropical maize inbred lines under drought stress conditions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Dentre os estresses ambientais, seca é a maior fonte de instabilidade de rendimento de grãos de milho em áreas tropicais. Para milho, IFMF (intervalo entre florescimentos masculino e feminino, em dias) é considerado um eficaz indicador fenotípico de ...

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Combining ability studies for yield and yield components trait in hybrid rice (Oryza sativa L.) [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2012
Fifty two hybrids were generated from crossing four CMS lines and thirteen restorer lines in line x tester design. Crosses along with parents were evaluated for yield and yield component traits during rabi, 2011 at RARS, Jagtial, Andhra Pradesh ...

Transcriptional network analysis of PTEN‐protein‐deficient prostate tumors reveals robust stromal reprogramming and signs of senescent paracrine communication

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining PTEN protein assessment and transcriptomic profiling of prostate tumors, we uncovered a network enriched in senescence and extracellular matrix (ECM) programs associated with PTEN loss and conserved in a mouse model. We show that PTEN‐deficient cells trigger paracrine remodeling of the surrounding stroma and this information could help ...
