transition from vegetative to reproductive growth is an important stage in plant’s life. flowering pathways including photoperiod, vernalization, gibberellins, and autonomous pathway are regulated by different genes. identification of flowering genes is essential for the development of bolting-resistant sugar beet cultivars. in this study, a set of 118 arabidopsis thaliana genes involved in flo...

Application of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) with a pollen growth inhibitor, aspterric acid (AA), results in the recovery of normal pollen development. In contrast, application of gibberellin (GA3) with AA do not induce normal pollen growth. In addition, application of different concentrations of IAA with AA shortens the period of growth from bolting to first flowering as compared to that treated ...

Humeral fractures in the setting of multi-trauma are usually managed with internal fixation. We prospectively followed nine patients treated with an expandable nail (Fixion, DiscoTech, Medical Technologies, Herzliya, Israel), until union. Internal fixation rapidly stabilises the injured limb, and the lack of distal cross-bolting in this device markedly reduced our operative time. There were no ...
