Genetics of Resistance to Tetraethyllead [PDF]
Australian Journal of Biological Sciences, 1979 A Drosophila melanogaster population was exposed for 25 generations to 60 pg tetraethyllead per gram of medium. Selection over this period resulted in an increase in fecundity, hatchability and larva-to-adult viability. Chromosome assay showed that response in these traits was generally under additive genetic control in conformity with existing results

Creating genetic resistance to HIV [PDF]
Current Opinion in Immunology, 2012 HIV/AIDS remains a chronic and incurable disease, in spite of the notable successes of combination antiretroviral therapy. Gene therapy offers the prospect of creating genetic resistance to HIV that supplants the need for antiviral drugs. In sight of this goal, a variety of anti-HIV genes have reached clinical testing, including gene-editing enzymes ...

Clinical Insights Into Hypercalcemia of Malignancy in Childhood
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hypercalcemia of malignancy (HCM) is a rare but life‐threatening metabolic emergency in children that occurs in less than 1% of pediatric cancer cases, with a reported incidence ranging from 0.4% to 1.0% across different studies. While it is observed in 10%–20% of adult malignancies, pediatric HCM remains relatively uncommon.

Mining candidate genes for grape seed traits based on a genome-wide association study
Horticultural Plant JournalSeedlessness has always been a valuable quality characteristic of edible grape varieties. Although the production of seedless grapes has been ongoing for decades, the genetic complexity of seedless grapes is not yet fully understood.

Grain zinc, iron and protein concentrations and zinc-efficiency in wild emmer wheat under contrasting irrigation regimes [PDF]
, 2008 Micronutrient malnutrition, and particularly deficiency in zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe), afflicts over three billion people worldwide, and nearly half of the world’s cereal-growing area is affected by soil Zn deficiency.
