The ribonucleoprotein enzyme telomerase is a specialized type of cellular reverse transcriptase which synthesizes one strand of telomeric DNA, using as the template a sequence in the RNA moiety of telomerase. We analyzed the effects of various nucleoside analogs, known to be chain-terminating inhibitors of retroviral reverse transcriptases, on Tetrahymena thermophila telomerase activity in vitr...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS The pattern of callose deposition was followed in developing stomata of the fern Asplenium nidus to investigate the role of this polysaccharide in guard cell (GC) wall differentiation and stomatal pore formation. METHODS Callose was localized by aniline blue staining and immunolabelling using an antibody against (1 --> 3)-beta-d-glucan. The study was carried out in stomata...

Near-infrared spectroscopy combined with chemometrics was applied to construct a hybrid model for the non-invasive detection of protein content in different types of plant feed materials. In total, 829 samples of plant feed materials, which included corn distillers' dried grains with solubles (DDGS), corn germ meal, corn gluten meal, distillers' dried grains (DDG) and rapeseed meal, were collec...

Anaerobic soil disinfestation (ASD) has been adopted in over 900 ha California strawberry production as an alternative to chemical fumigation. Rice bran, the predominant carbon source for ASD, become increasingly expensive. In 2021–22 and 2022–23 field studies, we evaluated 20–30% lower-priced wheat middlings (Midds) dried distillers’ grain (DDG) at 21,800 kg ha−1 (in 2021) 17,000 2022) sources...

We develop a theory for distributed branch points and investigate their role in determining the shape influencing mechanics of thin hyperbolic objects. show that are natural topological defects sheets, they carry index which gives them degree robustness, can influence overall morphology surface without concentrating energy. discrete differential geometric (DDG) approach to study deformations ob...
