Differences in intestinal size, structure, and function contributing to feed efficiency in broiler chickens reared at geographically distant locations [PDF]

, 2019
The contribution of the intestinal tract to differences in residual feed intake (RFI) has been inconclusively studied in chickens so far. It is also not clear if RFI-related differences in intestinal function are similar in chickens raised in different ...

Effect of deficit irrigation and methyl jasmonate application on the composition of strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) fruit and leaves [PDF]

, 2016
Drought stress is among the most severe environmental risks threatening strawberry production. In the present study, the effect of deficit irrigation (DI; 50 mL/day) and/or elicitation with methyl jasmonate (MeJA; 0.1 mM) on the composition of secondary ...

AN ANALYSIS OF CONSUMER CHARACTERISTICS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PURCHASE OF BEEF AND PORK VARIETY MEATS [PDF]

This analysis uses a dichotomous qualitative response model to assess the influences of several economic and demographic characteristics of consumers on the purchase decision for variety (edible organ and offal) meats. Specific factors considered include

Haemoglobin and size dependent constraints on swimbladder inflation in fish larvae [PDF]

, 2006
In developmental studies of fish species (especially physostomians) it could be demonstrated, that the lack of haemoglobin during larval and juvenile stages is a relatively common phenomenon. Generally it is linked with body translucency.

Nitric oxide, cell multiplication, and cell survival [PDF]

, 1996
Arrest of cell division is crucial for cells to enter a program of terminal differentiation. In the developing organ or a differentiating tissue, growth arrest defines roughly the size of the cellular population that is further committed to become a ...

The Hippo signalling pathway coordinates organ growth and limits developmental variability by controlling dilp8 expression

Nature Communications, 2016
The hormone Dipl8 regulates organ growth inDrosophila whereas the Hippo pathway controls organ size. Here, the authors show that the expression of Dipl8 is regulated by the Hippo pathway, thus linking organ growth or organ size in Drosophila.

The WIGGUM gene is required for proper regulation of floral meristem size in Arabidopsis [PDF]

, 1998
The study of cell division control within developing tissues is central to understanding the processes of pattern formation. The floral meristem of angiosperms gives rise to floral organs in a particular number and pattern.

Serous cystic neoplasm of the pancreas: A multinational study of 2622 patients under the auspices of the International Association of Pancreatology and European Pancreatic Club (European Study Group on Cystic Tumors of the Pancreas) [PDF]

, 2015
OBJECTIVES: Serous cystic neoplasm (SCN) is a cystic neoplasm of the pancreas whose natural history is poorly known. The purpose of the study was to attempt to describe the natural history of SCN, including the specific mortality.

Competition and Post-Transplant Outcomes in Cadaveric Liver Transplantation under the MELD Scoring System [PDF]

Previous researchers have modelled the decision to accept a donor organ for transplantation as a Markov decision problem, the solution to which is often a control-limit optimal policy: accept any organ whose match quality exceeds some health-dependent ...

The Hippo Pathway Targets Rae1 to Regulate Mitosis and Organ Size and to Feed Back to Regulate Upstream Components Merlin, Hippo, and Warts.

PLoS Genetics, 2016
Hippo signaling acts as a master regulatory pathway controlling growth, proliferation, and apoptosis and also ensures that variations in proliferation do not alter organ size.
