Remote Sensing Energy Balance Model for the Assessment of Crop Evapotranspiration and Water Status in an Almond Rootstock Collection

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
One of the objectives of many studies conducted by breeding programs is to characterize and select rootstocks well-adapted to drought conditions. In recent years, field high-throughput phenotyping methods have been developed to characterize plant traits ...

The role of miR‐335‐5p in the redifferentiation of BRAF p.V600E thyroid cancers

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The BRAF p.V600E mutation promotes thyroid cancer dedifferentiation and radioiodine resistance. Using a network approach, we identified miR‐335‐5p as a key regulator of BRAF‐mutated thyroid tumors. Restoring miR‐335‐5p increased thyroid‐specific gene expression and iodine uptake in cells and organoids.

Mapping Almond Stem Water Potential using Machine Learning

open access: yes, 2023
Abstract Almonds are a major crop in California which produces 80% of all the world’s almonds. Widespread drought and strict groundwater regulations pose significant challenges to growers. Irrigation regimes based on observed crop water status can help to optimize water use efficiency, but consistent and accurate measurement of water status can

TRAIL‐PEG‐Apt‐PLGA nanosystem as an aptamer‐targeted drug delivery system potential for triple‐negative breast cancer therapy using in vivo mouse model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Physiological and production responses of olive (Olea europaea L.) cv. Frantoio under regulated deficit irrigation on a semiarid mediterranean weather condition (Cholqui, Maipo Valley, Chile)

open access: yesRevista de la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, 2018
The objective of the present study was to determine the Regulated Deficit Irrigation (RDI) effect on the cv. Frantoio olive tree, under semiarid mediterranean weather condtions (8 months dry period).

Water stress effect on hydraulic architecture, biomass partitioning, and gas exchange of four different olive cultivars

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Olea europaea L. is considered a very resilient species to water deficits. Climate change, characterized by warmer summers and drier winters, may challenge even this adaptable species, potentially making once-suitable areas less viable for cultivation ...

On the Use of Sap Flow Measurements to Assess the Water Requirements of Three Australian Native Tree Species

open access: yesAgronomy, 2021
The measurement of sap movement in xylem sapwood tissue using heat pulse velocity sap flow instruments has been commonly used to estimate plant transpiration. In this study, sap flow sensors (SFM1) based on the heat ratio method (HRM) were used to assess

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Potentially Pathogenic Bacteria in Shower Water and Air of a Stem Cell Transplant Unit [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2009
ABSTRACT Potential pathogens from shower water and aerosolized shower mist (i.e., shower aerosol) have been suggested as an environmental source of infection for immunocompromised patients. To quantify the microbial load in shower water and aerosol samples, we used culture, microscopic, and quantitative PCR methods to investigate

Terrestrial and Remote Indexes to Assess Moderate Deficit Irrigation in Early-Maturing Nectarine Trees

open access: yesAgronomy, 2019
Monitoring plant water status is relevant for the sustainable management of irrigation under water deficit conditions. Two treatments were applied to an early-maturing nectarine orchard: control (well irrigated) and precise deficit irrigation (PDI, based
