Influence on the Physical Properties of Wheat Straw via Hydrothermal and Chemical Treatments

BioResources, 2016
The physical properties of wheat straw treated with hydrothermal and chemical treatments were investigated using an electronic universal testing machine, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The thermal

Rise of the south: How Arab‐led maritime trade transformed China, 671–1371 CE

Asia‐Pacific Economic History Review, Volume 65, Issue 1, Page 3-38, March 2025.
Abstract China's center of socioeconomic activities was in the North prior to the Tang dynasty but is in the South today. We demonstrate that Arab and Persian Muslim traders triggered that transition when they came to China in the late seventh century, by lifting maritime trade along the South Coast and re‐creating the South.

Molecular characterization and phylogenetic analysis of Wx genes from three Taeniatherum diploid species

Biologia Plantarum, 2016
In wheat seeds, starch synthase I or the Waxy protein is an enzyme involved in amylose synthesis. The gene encoding this enzyme is Wx and in this study, eight novel Wx alleles were identified in three diploid Taeniatherum species.

Basophil Activation Test as Biomarker of Severity and Threshold of Allergic Reactions to Cow's Milk During Oral Food Challenges

Allergy, EarlyView.
The threshold of reactivity during fresh milk challenges was 70% lower than that of baked milk challenges, reflecting the higher allergenicity of fresh milk. BAT was the only biomarker statistically significantly different between severity and threshold groups, for baked milk and fresh milk allergies, respectively.

Pharmacological inhibition of hydroxysteroid 11‐beta dehydrogenase type 1 (11‐βHSD1) after myocardial infarction preserves cardiac function in a translational mini‐pig model

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Plasma glucocorticoids increase acutely after MI, thereafter tissue levels are amplified selectively within cells expressing 11‐ßhydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11‐ßHSD1) that regenerates active glucocorticoids from circulating metabolites.

Wheat Tortilla Quality: Impact of Amylose Content Adjustments Using Waxy Wheat Flour

Cereal Chemistry, 2003
ABSTRACTAmylose content is closely related to wheat flour pasting or thermal properties, and thus affects final food qualities. Fourteen flour blends with amylose content ranges of <1 to 29% were used to study tortilla production and quality parameters.

Lethal Effects of the Wild Potato Solanum bulbocastanum on the Planthopper Pentastiridius leporinus, a Vector of Bacterial Pathogens in Potato

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The planthopper Pentastiridius leporinus [Hemiptera: Cixiidae] is a vector of the two plant pathogenic bacteria ‘Candidatus Arsenophonus phytopathogenicus’ and ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma solani’ causing ‘bacterial potato tuber wilt’ in potato.

Coupling of both a transactivation module and a double‐stranded DNA‐binding domain boosts Cas12i3 variant‐based cytosine and adenine editing in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Fusions of a transactivation module and a double‐stranded DNA‐binding domain produced effective Cas12i3 variant‐based cytosine and adenine base editors, with improved C‐to‐T and A‐to‐G base editing efficiency and expanded editing window. Generated herbicide‐resistant rice germplasm by using these base editors demonstrates their potential for precise ...
