Unlocking the agro-physiological potential of wheat rhizoplane fungi under low P conditions using a niche-conserved consortium approach. [PDF]
Plant growth-promoting fungi (PGPF) hold promise for enhancing crop yield. This study delves into the fungal diversity of the wheat rhizoplane across seven Moroccan agricultural regions, employing a niche-conserved strategy to construct fungal consortia (

Tolerance of cotton cultivars to water stress induced during seed germination
There is a demand for cotton cultivars more tolerant of abiotic stress conditions, such as drought. This study assessed white and colored cotton genotypes for water stress induced during seed germination using polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG). We evaluated

Physiological potential of chickpea seeds [PDF]
The chickpea crop is grown predominantly in the arid and semi-arid regions of the world. India is the largest producing country, in Brazil production is scarce, leading the country to import almost all of what is consumed. Grains are a good source of carbohydrates, proteins and even essential amino acids.

Amylin: Pharmacology, Physiology, and Clinical Potential [PDF]
Amylin is a pancreatic β-cell hormone that produces effects in several different organ systems. Here, we review the literature in rodents and in humans on amylin research since its discovery as a hormone about 25 years ago. Amylin is a 37-amino-acid peptide that activates its specific receptors, which are multisubunit G protein-coupled receptors ...

Role of Tau Protein in Both Physiological and Pathological Conditions [PDF]
The morphology of a neuron is determined by its cytoskeletal scaffolding. Thus proteins that associate with the principal cytoskeletal components such as the microtubules have a strong influence on both the morphology and physiology of neurons.

MicroRNAs in Ruminants and Their Potential Role in Nutrition and Physiology
The knowledge of how diet choices, dietary supplements, and feed intake influence molecular mechanisms in ruminant nutrition and physiology to maintain ruminant health, is essential to attain. In the present review, we focus on the role of microRNAs in ruminant health and disease; additionally, we discuss the potential of circulating microRNAs as ...
