On-farm activities that reduce GHG emissions or sequester carbon from the atmosphere to compensate for anthropogenic emissions are currently being evaluated by the Australian Government as carbon offset opportunities. The aim of this study was to examine the implications of establishing and grazing Kikuyu pastures, integrated as part of a mixed Merino sheep and cropping system, as a carbon offs...

Field trials were conducted on Amazonian Dark Earth soils in the Manaus region, Amazonas, Brazil to assess the composition and impact of weedy vegetation on maize yield. Soil fertility among the Dark Earth varied considerably with differences largely attributable to past-use history. Consequently, maize yield and weed pressure varied among field locations, reflecting these differences in soil f...

Minor histocompatibility Ags (mHags) are important targets of the graft-versus-leukemia effect after HLA-matched allogeneic stem cell transplantation. mHags are HLA-restricted polymorphic peptides expressed on normal and leukemia cells. Vaccination with hematopoiesis-restricted mHag peptides, such as HA-1, may boost the graft-versus-leukemia effect. However, some animal studies indicate that pe...

BACKGROUND ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) is a membrane integral protein which plays a vital role in High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism and exerts a protective effect against Hypoalphalipoproteinemia (HA) by mediation of rate-limiting step in HDL biogenesis. In addition, this protein possesses anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting the production of some inflammatory cytoki...

The conservation technologies and traditional techniques were evaluated at Adaptive Research Farm Gujranwala Pakistan during Rabi 2007-2008 and 2008-2009. The sowing techniques evaluated were broadcasting (T-1), Rotary Tillage Drill (T-2), Zero Tillage Drill (T-3) and Rabi Drill (T-4). Rotary Tillage Drill showed significantly high germination count (220.50 m -2 ) followed by Rabi Drill (211.50...

Optimization of long term immunity depends on the functional persistence of memory T cells; however, there are no defined strategies for promoting memory T cell function and survival. In this study, we hypothesized that varying the strength of the recall stimulus could modulate the function and survival potential of memory CD4 T cells. We tested the ability of peptide variants of influenza hema...

A field experiment was conducted during Kharif 2022 at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P). To study treatments consisting three levels Nitrogen such as, 80, 100 and 120 kg/ha with spacing as 75 x 10 cm2, 60 20 cm2 45 30 cm2. The soil experimental plot sandy loam in texture, nearly neutral reaction (pH 7.1), low organic carbon (0.28%), available N (225 kg/ha), P ...

There has been shown a main direction of winter rye breeding in the institution. have described stages this process. reported that reduction length stem at first stage due to use sources short stems made it possible increase productivity level developed varieties on 17.2 %, and lodging resistance 32.0 %. In order compensate for significant assimilation surface area decrease as assimilating orga...
