Efficacy of the Sterile Insect Technique in the presence of inaccessible areas: A study using two-patch models [PDF]

Mathematical Biosciences, pp.109290
The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is one of the sustainable strategies for the control of disease vectors, which consists of releasing sterilized males that will mate with the wild females, resulting in a reduction and, eventually a local elimination, of the wild population.

IDENTIFICATION OF WIDE COMPATIBILITY VARIETIES IN SOME TROPICAL JAPONICA RICE [PDF]

, 2013
The F1 hybrid sterility in indica/japonica crosses is the major barrier in developing hybrid rice varieties between these two diverse germplasm. The sterility problem in japonica/indica hybrids can be overcome by using wide compatibility genes.

Genomic structural variation-mediated allelic suppression causes hybrid male sterility in rice

Nature Communications, 2017
Hybrids between divergent populations commonly show hybrid sterility; this reproductive barrier hinders hybrid breeding of the japonica and indica rice (Oryza sativa L.) subspecies. Here we show that structural changes and copy number variation at the Sc

Identification of the First Nuclear Male Sterility Gene (Male‐sterile 9) in Sorghum

The Plant Genome, 2019
Core Ideas The male‐sterile 9 (ms9) is a novel nuclear male‐sterile mutant in sorghum. The Ms9 gene encodes a PHD‐finger transcription factor critical for pollen development.

Analysis of the "Rolling carpet" strategy to eradicate an invasive species [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
In order to prevent the propagation of human diseases transmitted by mosquitoes (such as dengue or zika), one possible solution is to act directly on the mosquito population. In this work, we consider an invasive species (the mosquitoes) and we study two strategies to eradicate the population in the whole space by a local intervention.

Transformation and analysis of tobacco plant var Petit havana with T-urf13 gene under anther-specific TA29 promoter [PDF]

, 2011
T-urf13, a well-documented cms-associated gene from maize, has been shown to render methomyl sensitivity to heterologous systems like rice, yeast and bacteria when expressed constitutively.

Transcript levels of orf288 are associated with the hau cytoplasmic male sterility system and altered nuclear gene expression in Brassica juncea

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2018
High transcript levels of the CMS-associated gene orf288 in the hau CMS line of Brassica juncea induce defects in mitochondrial ultrastructure during the development of archesporial cells and cause cytoplasmic male sterility.

Multifunctional Hydroxyapatite Coated with Gallium Liquid Metal‐Based Silver Nanoparticles for Infection Prevention and Bone Regeneration

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A multifunctional hydroxyapatite (HAp) coating integrated with silver‐gallium liquid metal nanoparticles (HAp‐Ag‐GaNPs) exhibits dual antibacterial and osteogenic properties. It effectively inhibits Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria, including resistant strains, while enhancing bone regeneration.

Identification of no pollen 1 provides a candidate gene for heterosis utilization in foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.)

Crop Journal, 2021
Male sterility is a common biological phenomenon in plant kingdom and has been used to generate male-sterile lines, which are important genetic resources for commercial hybrid seed production. Although increasing numbers of male-sterility genes have been
