Effects of selenium biofortification on crop nutritional quality [PDF]
, 2015 Selenium (Se) at very low doses has crucial functions in humans and animals. Since plants represent the main dietary source of this element, Se-containing crops may be used as a means to deliver Se to consumers (biofortification). Several strategies have

COPD Due to Sulfur Mustard (Mustard Lung) [PDF]
, 2012 Sulfur Mustard (SM) is a potent toxic alkylating agent that has been used as a chemical warfare gas during the World War I and in the Iran-Iraq conflict between 1983 and 1988(1). SM can cause serious organ damages especially ocular, neurologic, cutaneous, bone marrow, and pulmonary complications (1). The previous studies have shown that the respiratory

JSFA reports, EarlyView.Abstract Background Bacterial wilt of enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) is a severe disease caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum, resulting in complete crop failure and considerable damage. This study assessed the biochemical responses of two enset clones (one resistant and one susceptible) when inoculated with the pathogen and ...

A review of volatiles in the Martian interior [PDF]
, 2016 Multiple observations from missions to Mars have revealed compelling evidence for a volatile-rich Martian crust. A leading theory contends that eruption of basaltic magmas was the ultimate mechanism of transfer of volatiles from the mantle toward the ...

Transport engineering as a strategy to realize rapeseed's potential as a protein‐rich food
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.The heavily pesticide‐dependent rapeseed is an under‐utilized protein source for food owing to anti‐nutritional glucosinolates. Transport engineering technology may reduce glucosinolates in seeds while increasing defense in vegetative parts. Abstract Rapeseed is the world's second‐largest oilseed crop, and the low‐value press cake that remains after ...
