Interplay between carotenoids, abscisic acid and jasmonate guides the compatible rice-Meloidogyne graminicola interaction [PDF]
In this study, we have characterized the role of carotenoids and chlorophyll in the compatible interaction between the sedentary root knot nematode (RKN) Meloidogyne graminicola and the monocot model plant rice (Oryza sativa). Previous transcriptome data

Susceptibility genes for complex epilepsy [PDF]
Common idiopathic epilepsies are, clinically and genetically, a heterogeneous group of complex seizure disorders. Seizures arise from periodic neuronal hyperexcitability of unknown cause. The genetic component is mostly polygenic, where each susceptibility gene in any given individual is likely to represent a small component of the total heritability ...

Mutation Frequency in Main Susceptibility Genes Among Patients With Head and Neck Paragangliomas
Head and neck paragangliomas (HNPGLs) are rare neuroendocrine tumors that have a high degree of heritability and are predominantly associated with mutations in ten genes, such as SDHx, SDHAF2, VHL, RET, NF1, TMEM127, MAX, FH, MEN2, and SLC25A11 ...
