Salt resistant crop plants

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Biotechnology, 2014
Soil salinity is a major constraint to agriculture. To improve salinity tolerance of crops, various traits can be incorporated, including ion exclusion, osmotic tolerance and tissue tolerance. We review the roles of a range of genes involved in salt tolerance traits. Different tissues and cells are adapted for specific and often diverse function, so it

Assessment of graphene oxide toxicity on the growth and nutrient levels of white clover (Trifolium repens L.)

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) are novel engineered nanomaterials and have been used widely. Their toxic effects on terrestrial plants in soil matrix require careful investigation. In this study, white clover (Trifolium repens L.) was grown in a potted soil

Virus resistance genes in plants

open access: yesUirusu, 2018
Plants defend themselves from virus infection by RNA silencing and resistance (R) gene-mediated mechanisms. Many dominant R genes encode nucleotide-binding site and leucine-rich repeat (NB-LRR)-containing proteins. NB-LRR proteins are also encoded by R genes against bacteria or fungi, suggesting a similar mechanism underlies defense systems to diverse ...

Deep Sequencing of FLT3‐ITD Enables Response Evaluation and Post‐Treatment Monitoring in Childhood AML: An Exploratory Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background An internal tandem duplication in the gene encoding Fms‐like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3‐ITD) is associated with high relapse risk and poor prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and plays a crucial role in treatment decisions. Measurable residual disease (MRD) analysis of FLT3‐ITD during and after treatment has shown prognostic ...

Engineering disease resistance in plants

open access: yesNature, 2001
Ever since the initial discovery of the molecules and genes involved in disease resistance in plants, attempts have been made to engineer durable disease resistance in economically important crop plants. Unfortunately, many of these attempts have failed, owing to the complexity of disease-resistance signalling and the sheer diversity of infection ...

The Role of Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Ataxia‐Telangiectasia

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Ataxia‐telangiectasia (A‐T) is a DNA repair disorder characterized by neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency, and cancer predisposition. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an established therapy in related disorders such as Fanconi anemia (FA) and Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS), but its role in A‐T is unclear.
