The dual nature of TDC – bridging dendritic and T cells in immunity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
TDC are hematopoietic cells combining dendritic and T cell features. They reach secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and peripheral organs (liver and lungs) after FLT3‐dependent development in the bone marrow and maturation in the thymus. TDC are activated and enriched in SLOs upon viral infection, suggesting that they might play unique immune roles, since

Cassava Frogskin Disease: Current Knowledge on a Re-Emerging Disease in the Americas

Plants, 2022
Cassava frogskin disease (CFSD) is a graft-transmissible disease of cassava reported for the first time in the 1970s, in Colombia. The disease is characterized by the formation of longitudinal lip-like fissures on the peel of the cassava storage roots ...

Genetic association among root morphology, root quality and root yield in ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) [PDF]

Genetika, 2011
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is a dryland medicinal crop and roots are used as valuable drug in traditional systems of medicine. Morphological variants (morphotypes) and the parental populations were evaluated for root - morphometric, quality and yield traits to study genetic association among them. Root morphometric traits (root length,

Simulating Root Density Dynamics and Nitrogen Uptake -Field Trials and Root Model Approach in Denmark [PDF]

, 2007
Plant soil and atmosphere models are commonly used to predict crop yield and associated environmental consequences. Such models often include complex modelling of water movement, soil organic matter turnover and above ground plant growth.

Leveraging current insights on IL‐10‐producing dendritic cells for developing effective immunotherapeutic approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

Preliminary observations on use of Beauveria bassiana for the control of the sweet potato weevil (Cylas sp.) in South Africa

Open Agriculture, 2017
Sweet potato weevils (Cylas puncticollis and C. formicarius) are notorious pests of sweet potato and cause severe losses in marketable yield. The study tested the use of Beauveria bassiana ((Balsamo) Vuillemin) (Deuteromycota: Hyphomycetes) for ...

Identification of QTLs for storage root yield in sweetpotato

Scientia Horticulturae, 2014
Sweetpotato breeding is challenging due to its genetic complexity, and marker-assisted breeding tools are needed to facilitate the improvement of this crop. In the present study, we identified quantitative trait loci (QTL) for storage root yield of sweetpotato using a mapping population consisting of 202 individuals derived from a cross between Xushu18

Root growth and crop yield of two varieties of wheat grown under differing irrigation regimes : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Plant Science at Massey University [PDF]

, 1974
Root growth and crop yield of Gamenya, a standard height variety, and Karamu, a semi-dwarf, spring wheat were compared under 3 irrigation regimes: daily watering; infrequent (fortnightly) watering; and sub-irrigation, where water was introduced into the ...
