THE EFFECT OF GAMMA IRRADIATION AND SODIUM AZIDE ON GERMINATION OF SOME RICE CULTIVARS [PDF]

open access: yesAGRIVITA Journal of Agricultural Science, 2014
Efforts to increase rice production through genetic improvement are often limited by the availability of natural diversity. That natural diversity can be improved through induced mutation. Selected characters can be observed since the germination phases,

Prognostic Impact of APOBEC3B Expression in Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma and Its Association with Tumor-Infiltrating Cytotoxic T Cells

open access: yesCurrent Oncology, 2021
APOBEC3B enzymes are endogenous carcinogenic mutagens. Metastatic urothelial carcinomas often harbor APOBEC3B-mediated mutations in which tCw to T or G substitution occurs. Here, we evaluated patient survival and CD8+ T-cell density according to APOBEC3B
