Abstract Six sets of 48 maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines, and their 96 single crosses generated using the North Carolina Mating Design II system, were evaluated for resistance to gray leaf spot (GLS). The aim of the study was to assess the implications of combining ability, heterotic effects, and potence ratio in breeding for GLS resistance in maize ...

EFFECT OF H56/28 (APTINE) ON CATECHOLAMINE‐INDUCED ARRHYTHMIAS AND NEUROMUSCULAR TRANSMISSION IN MAN
SUMMARYThe beta adrenergic blocking agent H56/28 was found to be effective in the prevention of catecholamine‐anesthetic cardiac arrhythmias in man. It was suggested that this antiarrhythmic action was due to beta adrenergic blockade rather than the local anesthetic activity which H56/28 is known to possess.

Analysis of gene expression profiles in two spinal cord injury models
Objectives To analyze the changes of gene expression at different timepoints after spinal cord injury (SCI) with tenth segment thoracic injury. Methods Two SCI models, the complete paraplegia (H) and Allen’s strike (D) methods were applied to induce SCI ...

We investigate the phylogeographic history and paleodistribution patterns of four closely related grasshopper species of the genus Sphenarium to test the relative impact of Pleistocene climate fluctuations on their diversification. We found that each species responded differently to these fluctuations, but their divergence, distribution, and ...

Positive selection within the Schizophrenia-associated GABA(A) receptor beta(2) gene. [PDF]
The gamma-aminobutyric acid type-A (GABA(A)) receptor plays a major role in inhibitory neurotransmissions. Intronic SNPs and haplotypes in GABRB2, the gene for GABA(A) receptor beta(2) subunit, are associated with schizophrenia and correlated with the ...

Bright‐field images of unstained smears. (1) Sparse erythrocytes allow straightforward intensity‐ or phase‐based segmentation. (2) Overlapping cells blur boundaries, causing over‐ or under‐segmentation and lowering rule‐based accuracy, thus motivating overlap‐aware algorithms for reliable downstream feature extraction and classification.
