Phylogenetic analysis and assessment ability of Fusarium isolates for the biodegradation of the pesticide carbofuran
Authors: Abd El-Latif Hesham, Faizah Amer Al-Tihani, Sulaiman A. Alrumman and Ahmed F. El-Bebany
Carbofuran is a pesticide used against insects and nematodes. It is a common environmental pollutant associated with agricultural activities. Carbofuran has harmful effects on target and non-target organisms through the accumulation of acetylcholine at the junction of the nerve cell and the receptor sites system by inhibiting .. Read More»

The genetic diversity and population structure of Genipa americana L. in Northern Mato Grosso, Brazil
Authors: D.A.C. Ruzza, A.A.B. Rossi, R.B. Bispo, A.V. Tiago, J.S. Cochev, Fernando Saragosa Rossi and J.M. Fernandes
Genipa americana L. (Rubiaceae) is an Amazon region-natural species, which may be subject to inbreeding, since it grows in fragmented environments. The aim of the current study is to assess the genetic diversity and population structure of three G. americana populations naturally grown in Northern Mato Grosso State using SSR m.. Read More»

Identification, Characterization, and Phylogenetic analysis of Pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan L. Mill sp.) Resistance Gene Analogs using PCR cloning and in silico methods
Authors: Ikechukwu O. Agbagwa, Prakash G. Patil, Alok Das, Khela R. Soren, Indra P. Singh, Sushil K. Chaturvedi, Nagaswamy Nadarajan
Pigeon Pea (Cajanus cajan), an important grain legume, is susceptible to Fusarium wilt (FW), sterility mosaic disease (SMD), and Phytophthora blight. Identification of resistance gene analogs (RGAs) is important for development of resistant varieties. In this study, degenerate primers targeting nucleotide binding sites (NBS) o.. Read More»

Adaptability and Stability of Soybean Genotypes in the States of MaranhÃ?£o, PiauÃ?Â, Tocantins and Bahia
Authors: O.T. Hamawaki, A.P.O. Nogueira, F.G. Teixeira, T.F. Bicalho, G.L. Jorge, R.L. Hamawaki, C.S. Machado J�ºnior, G.F. Gomes, C.L. Hamawaki
The soybean crop has a substantial importance for Brazil’s agribusiness and economy. Besides, breeding programs have contributed to the development of the crop in the country allowing grain yield increase and, at the same time, intensifying the production of new cultivars that show both yield predictability and wide adap..

Heterosis and genetics parameters for yield and nutritional components in half-sibling maize progenies
Authors: Ivan Ricardo Carvalho, Alan Junior de Pelegrin, MaurÃ?Âcio Ferrari, VinÃ?Âcius Jardel Szareski, , Antonio Costa de Oliveira, Luciano Carlos da Maia, Tiago Corazza da Rosa, Victoria Freitas de Oliveira, Jessica Fernanda Hoffmann, Maicon Nardino, FÃ?¡bio Clasen Chaves, Velci QueirÃ?³z de Souza
The growing demand for maize creates a challenge to breeders, requiring the development of higher yielding and higher quality genotypes. The objective of this work was to estimate the most relevant heterosis, variance components and genetic parameters, and to use a multivariate approach to define narrow sense heritability prof..

New tool application in veterinary forensic science to analyze genetic fingerprinting data
Authors: Reale S, Mascali LG, Bonanno , Lupo, Ferina , Vitale
In the last decades legal and other cases in which forensic veterinary science is required are increasing. The principles of investigation follow those used in human beings, although in animal species familial relationship identification is a hard task, due to high level of inbreeding. Familias 3 software is commonly used in h.. Read More»

Screening and identification of candidate genes essential for cervical lymph node metastasis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma with microarrays
Authors: Ming Fu, Yudong Ye, Chi Zhang, Zhuo Chen, Zhenchao Zhu, Yang Peng, Xiangning Zhang, Qianhui Qiu
The aim of the present study is to identify genes that are crucial for the cervical lymph node metastasis, which predicts poor prognosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), endemic in southern China. Microarrays with probes to determine genomic expression profile and promoter methylation status in tumor specimens were used, to .. Read More»
