Bio-vaterite formation by glycoproteins from freshwater pearls

Micron, 2010
A 48 kDa acidic and putative calcium-binding glycoprotein was isolated from pearls of the freshwater mussel Hyriopsis cumingii. This protein was compared with a related 46 kDa polypeptide, obtained from the nacreous shell of the same species. Separation by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed that the difference in molecular weight is due to ...

How Can Community Music Enhance Place‐Based Efforts to Create Greater Social Equity? Insights From an Australian Cultural Mapping Exercise

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Social inequity is increasing in Australia, often manifesting in entrenched locational disadvantage that requires place‐based responses grounded in local strengths, knowledge and participation. While community music programmes have demonstrated a range of positive social outcomes, their potential contribution to place‐based efforts addressing ...

Rhizosheath formation is positively correlated with retention of water in the rhizosphere and water deficit stress tolerance in pearl millet

Scientific African
Plants have evolved adaptive strategies to enhance hydromineral uptake, with rhizosheath formation emerging as a key mechanism improving water deficit tolerance.

Meiosis in elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum), pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) (Poaceae, Poales) and their interspecific hybrids

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2006
The cultivated and sexually compatible species Pennisetum purpureum (elephant grass, 2n = 4x = 28) and Pennisetum glaucum (pearl millet, 2n = 2x = 14) can undergo hybridization which favors the amplification of their genetic background and the ...
