in order to map the genomic regions affecting barley drought tolerance indices, an experiment was conducted at the agricultural and natural resource station of sistan. seventy tow double haploid lines of barley with their parents (steptoe and morex) were examined using two 9×9 simple lattice (stress and non-stress), with two replications. each plot consisted of six rows that were 3m in length a...

Durum wheat is the most widely grown cereal in Tunisia, but its production threatened by drought, which exacerbated climate change. This study aimed to identify drought-tolerant durum genotypes from five modern varieties and six landraces a multi-environment trial at two sites (Kef Siliana, Tunisia) during three growing seasons under rainfed irrigated conditions. Six drought tolerance indices (...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate inflammatory indicators and oxidative status in patients with asbestos exposure with and without mesothelioma and to compare results with data from healthy subjects. METHODS Eighty people with exposure to environmental asbestos and without any disease, 46 mesothelioma patients, and a control group of 50 people without exposure...

OBJECTIVE The study aimed to evaluate the pre-treatment and post-treatment oxidant capacity, antioxidant capacity and S100B protein levels in cases of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). METHODS The study included 49 pediatric patients diagnosed with DKA and a control group comprising 49 healthy children. Blood samples were obtained after confirmation of the DKA diagnosis and also after treatment. S...

Introduction Toltrazuril (Tol) is used to prevent and combat coccidiosis. However, its low aqueous solubility and poor oral bioavailability limit clinical application. Methods To overcome the shortcomings, toltrazuril-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex (Tol-HP-β-CD) was prepared and characterized. The comparative plasma disposition kinetics of Tol was analyzed after a single orall...

The mating-type locus in the haploid filamentous fungus, Neurospora crassa, controls mating and sexual development. The fusion of reproductive structures of opposite mating type, A and a, is required to initiate sexual reproduction. However, the fusion of hyphae of opposite mating type during vegetative growth results in growth inhibition and cell death, a process that is mediated by the tol lo...

Drought hasunfavorable impacts on the success of agriculture in many parts world.Providing future populations with enough food would obviously require evaluation crop yield, higher potentials, and provision yield stability drought-affected regions. In this research, drought-tolerance wheat genotypes was studied a randomized complete block design three-replication experiment under normal drought...

Some plasmid-free Tol- strains derived from Pseudomonas putida PAW1 (which carries the TOL plasmid pWW0) have a segment of TOL DNA located chromosomally. Of three independently isolated strains, PAW86 had an integrated TOL segment of 16 kilobases and PAW85 had two copies of this segment in different chromosomal locations, whereas the chromosomal DNA of PAW82 showed no homology with the TOL plas...
