Arabidopsis nonexpresser of pathogenesis-related (PR) genes (NPR1) is the sole positive regulator that has been shown to be essential for the induction of systemic acquired resistance. In npr1 mutant plants, salicylic acid (SA)–mediated PR gene expression and pathogen resistance are abolished completely. NPR1 has been shown to interact with three closely related TGA transcription factors—TGA2, ...

Precise coordination between stamen and pistil development is essential to make a fertile flower. Mutations impairing stamen filament elongation, pollen maturation, or anther dehiscence will cause male sterility. Deficiency in plant hormone gibberellin (GA) causes male sterility due to accumulation of DELLA proteins, and GA triggers DELLA degradation to promote stamen development. Deficiency in...

Stanford Research Systems phone: (408)744-9040 www.thinkSRS.com Residual Gas Analyzer (RGA) is the term used for a class of quadrupole mass spectrometers that typically cover mass ranges from 1 to 100 or 200 amu (atomic mass units), and are intended to be used for the analysis of the gasses present in high and ultra-high vacuum. The RGA’s resolution is sufficient to clearly distinguish peaks th...

conclusions adeabc efflux system plays a vital role in multidrug resistance in clinical a. baumannii isolates. it was noted that the most important gene responsible for multidrug resistance within this system was the adeb gene especially in carbapenems resistance. methods this study was conducted on 84 multidrug resistant and 13 carbapenem-susceptible a. baumannii isolates obtained from burn an...

Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) remains the most common infection affecting organ transplant recipients. Despite advances in the prophylaxis and acute treatment of CMV, it remains an important pathogen affecting the short- and long-term clinical outcome of solid organ transplant recipient. The emergence of CMV resistance in a patient reduces the clinical efficacy of antiviral therapy, complicates t...
