Functional characterization of the Csm1-like protein TITAN 9 in Arabidopsis thaliana

iScience
Summary: Kinetochores are essential for chromosome segregation in eukaryotes. An important component of kinetochores in opisthokonta is Csm1. However, its function appears to be diversified and, while Csm1 in budding yeast is a component of the monopolin

Inbreeding depression simulation in popcorn cultivars to estimate the effective population size for germplasm conservation

Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2007
Nowadays the corn variability is preserved mainly in germplasm banks. A population maintained in a germplasm bank can lose genetic variability when regenerations are performed with an inadequate effective population size.

‘They Need to Hear You Say It’: Healthcare Professionals’ Perspectives on Barriers and Enablers to End‐of‐Life Discussions With Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT End‐of‐life conversations with adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer rarely occur without the guidance of healthcare professionals. As a part of the ‘Difficult Discussions’ study, focused on palliative care and advance care planning discussions with AYAs with cancer, we investigated the factors that healthcare professionals identify ...
