Evaluation of salinity tolerance indices in North African barley accessions at reproductive stage
Soil salinity is one of the main factors limiting cereal productivity in worldwide agriculture. Exploitation of natural variation in local barley germplasm is an effective approach to overcome yield losses.

Astronomic bioethics : Terraforming X Planetary protection [PDF]
A hard difficulty in Astrobiology is the precise definition of what life is. All living beings have a cellular structure, so it is not possible to have a broader concept of life hence the search for extraterrestrial life is restricted to ...

Bacterial growth in media mimicking the high salt and alkalinity of extreme kazakhstan environments results in production of antimicrobial compounds in soil actinomycetes isolated from these extremophile locations [PDF]
Increasing antibiotic resistance among multidrug resistant pathogens necessitates the search for newer antimicrobials. Streptomyces historically produce the largest number of antibacterials and herein we describe isolation of antagonists from ...
