Internal efficiency of nutrient utilization: what is it and how to measure it during vegetative plant growth? [PDF]

, 2015
Efficient use of the resources required by plants to sustain crop production is considered an important objective in agriculture. In this context, the idea of developing crops with an enhanced ability to utilize mineral nutrients already taken up by ...

Non-invasive Physiological Approaches for Plant Phenotyping: Rice Responses to Heat Stress

Journal of Agricultural Science, 2019
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) can be negatively impacted by supraoptimum temperatures (above 33 °C) during initial reproductive phase (R3-R5); development and adoption of approaches via non-invasive physiological phenotyping can lead to help build new plant types to face the current extreme climatic events such as future forecasts.

Molecular characterisation of human penile carcinoma and generation of paired epithelial primary cell lines

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Generation of two normal and tumour (cancerous) paired human cell lines using an established tissue culture technique and their characterisation is described. Cell lines were characterised at cellular, protein, chromosome and gene expression levels and for HPV status.

Paraxanthine/caffeine concentration ratios in hair: an alternative for plasma-based phenotyping of cytochrome P450 1A2? [PDF]

, 2015
Background and Objective: Although metabolite-to-parent drug concentration ratios in hair have been suggested as a possible tool to study the metabolism of drugs in a non-invasive way, no studies are available that evaluated this in a systematic way ...

Improved detection of molecular markers of atherosclerotic plaques using sub-millimeter PET imaging [PDF]

, 2020
Since atherosclerotic plaques are small and sparse, their non-invasive detection via PET imaging requires both highly specific radiotracers as well as imaging systems with high sensitivity and resolution.

Cis‐regulatory and long noncoding RNA alterations in breast cancer – current insights, biomarker utility, and the critical need for functional validation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The noncoding region of the genome plays a key role in regulating gene expression, and mutations within these regions are capable of altering it. Researchers have identified multiple functional noncoding mutations associated with increased cancer risk in the genome of breast cancer patients.

The CYP2D6 phenotyping performance of single-point saliva metabolic ratio in a healthy Chinese Han population

Frontiers in Pharmacology
The CYP2D6 plays critical roles in drug metabolism, and its inter-individual variability should be properly addressed in clinical practice. Our research aimed to assess the performance of single-point saliva metabolic ratio (MR) in a healthy Chinese Han ...

Strength through diversity: how cancers thrive when clones cooperate

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Intratumor heterogeneity can offer direct benefits to the tumor through cooperation between different clones. In this review, Kuiken et al. discuss existing evidence for clonal cooperativity to identify overarching principles, and highlight how novel technological developments could address remaining open questions.

Phenoliner: A New Field Phenotyping Platform for Grapevine Research

Sensors, 2017
In grapevine research the acquisition of phenotypic data is largely restricted to the field due to its perennial nature and size. The methodologies used to assess morphological traits and phenology are mainly limited to visual scoring.
