Cloning and characterisation of a maize carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase (ZmCCD1) and its involvement in the biosynthesis of apocarotenoids with various roles in mutualistic and parasitic interactions [PDF]
Colonisation of maize roots by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi leads to the accumulation of apocarotenoids (cyclohexenone and mycorradicin derivatives).

Detection of Hard Exudates in Retinal Fundus Images using Deep Learning
Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a retinal disorder that affects the people having diabetes mellitus for a long time (20 years). DR is one of the main reasons for the preventable blindness all over the world. If not detected early the patient may progress to

A review of the influence of root-associating fungi and root exudates on the success of invasive plants [PDF]
Plant-fungal interactions are essential for understanding the distribution and abundance of plants species. Recently, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) partners of non-indigenous invasive plants have been hypothesized to be a critical factor ...

Remote examination of exudates-impact of macular oedema
One of the major causes of eye blindness is identified to be as diabetic retinopathy, which if not detected in earlier stage would cause a serious issue. Long-term diabetes causes diabetic retinopathy.

Geobacter, Anaeromyxobacter and Anaerolineae populations are enriched on anodes of root exudate-driven microbial fuel cells in rice field soil [PDF]
Plant-based sediment microbial fuel cells (PMFCs) couple the oxidation of root exudates in living rice plants to current production. We analysed the composition of the microbial community on anodes from PMFC with natural rice field soil as substratum for

Fungal Guttation, a Source of Bioactive Compounds, and Its Ecological Role—A Review
Guttation is a common phenomenon in the fungal kingdom. Its occurrence and intensity depend largely on culture conditions, such as growth medium composition or incubation temperature.

Exudates Detection Using Morphology Mean Shift Algorithm in Retinal Images
Exudates are a serious complication causing blindness in diabetic retinopathy patients. The main objective of this paper is to develop a novel method to detect exudates lesions in color retinal images by using a morphology mean shift algorithm.

Changes in Immune‐Inflammation Status and Acute Ischemic Stroke Prognosis in Prospective Cohort
ABSTRACT Background Inflammation is a critical risk factor for poor outcomes in cerebral infarction. Prior studies focused primarily on baseline inflammation status, neglecting dynamic longitudinal changes. We try to investigate the association between immune‐inflammation status alterations and stroke prognosis, and evaluated three systemic biomarkers'
