Combining Ability in Mixtures of Prairie Grass and Clovers
American Journal of Plant Sciences, 2012 Our objective was to evaluate the combining ability among cultivars of forage species, commonly sown in temperate regions of Argentina using a short rotation system. Three genetically diverse cultivars of prairie brome grass (Bromus catharticus, cv Copetona, cv ?andu and cv Tango), a white clover cultivar (Trifolium repens, cv Lucero) and a red clover ...

Plasmodium falciparum gametogenesis essential protein 1 (GEP1) is a transmission‐blocking target
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study shows Plasmodium falciparum GEP1 is vital for activating sexual stages of malarial parasites even independently of a mosquito factor. Knockout parasites completely fail gamete formation even when a phosphodiesterase inhibitor is added. Two single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (V241L and S263P) are found in 12%–20% of field samples.

Combining ability of pea genotypes
, 2008 Knowing combining ability of parental lines is important in estimating a potential of a parent in a new variety creation. The general opinion is that parents with good combining ability will give a good new genotype. F1 generations with high values of desired traits often have high probability of giving more valuable progeny in later generations.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Angiotensin II (AngII), a neuropeptide, interacts with amyloid‐β (Aβ), a key player in Alzheimer's disease. This study reveals that AngII reduces Aβ aggregation and membrane disruption in vitro. Biophysical assays and molecular modeling suggest AngII binds disordered Aβ forms, potentially modulating early amyloidogenic events and contributing to ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Atovaquone is an antimalarial requiring potentiation for sufficient efficacy. We pursued strategies to enhance its activity, showing that 4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase, decreasing ubiquinone biosynthesis. Since atovaquone competes with ubiquinol in mitochondria, 4‐nitrobenzoate facilitates its action, potentiating ...

Medical Image Segmentation by Water Flow
, 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 ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Combining Ability for Grain Yield and Popping Expansion in Popcorn (Zea mays everta) Hybrids
Turkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and TechnologyThe poor yield and popping quality underscore the need for indigenous germplasm improvement. This study aimed to find parents with high general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) for yield and popping traits.
