Experimental animal models of pulmonary hypertension: Development and challenges. [PDF]
Animal Model Exp Med, 2022 Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a severe, progressive vascular disorder characterized by elevation in pulmonary arterial pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance, finally leading to right heart failure and death. Different animal models have been designed to reflect the complex mechanistic origins and pathology of PH, roughly divided into 4 categories

Exploring Genetic Diversity: Optimizing Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) Markers in <i>Crotalaria</i> for Enhanced Precision in Biodiversity Research. [PDF]
Scientifica (Cairo)Crotalaria is a plant genus with more than 700 species of shrubs and herbs. Despite its potential economic importance, Crotalaria has received limited research attention; hence, there is limited information on its genetic diversity. Hence, there is need to establish its genetic diversity as a foundation for its conservation and breeding.

Effects of season of fire on bee-flower interaction diversity in a fire-maintained pine savanna. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2023 Season of fire (winter, spring, summer, or fall) did not affect the total richness or abundance of bees over the entire sampling period. However, the richness of bee–flower interactions was significantly higher in spring and summer plots than in fall plots and there were compositional differences among treatments.

The Monocrotaline Model of Hypertension Leads to Cachexia in Male but Not Female Mice. [PDF]
J Cachexia Sarcopenia MuscleABSTRACT Background The monocrotaline (MCT) model of cardiac cachexia is a pharmaceutical approach to pulmonary hypertension that has been used to study heart failure and muscle wasting in rodents; however, little is known of how this pyrrolizidine alkaloid leads to peripheral changes in organ function and body mass, and sex differences have not been ...

Fusarium wilt–common bean pathosystem: Pathogen variability and genetic control
Crop Science, Volume 63, Issue 5, Page 2609-2622, September/October 2023., 2023 Abstract Sustainable management of plant diseases has been a challenge in the effort to feed a human population that has increased substantially. One of the main diseases that affect common bean and dry bean is Fusarium wilt, caused by the fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli (Fop), which can cause losses of up to 100% in crop production.

Residue management and genotype effect on sunn hemp organic matter and nitrogen decomposition
Agronomy Journal, Volume 115, Issue 1, Page 261-272, January/February 2023., 2023 Abstract Sunn hemp (Crotalaria juncea L.) is a warm‐season legume often used as a cover crop; however, there is limited information about nutrient cycling of sunn hemp residue. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of sunn hemp genotype and residue management on plant characteristics, decomposition, and suppression of Fusarium, Pythium,
