Pot experiment was conducted to find out the competence of some commercial product Trichoderma spp. on management root knot nematode in tomato crop. The RCBD having seven treatments six different including one control three replications. Each treatment had five pots. Twenty days old seedling Shrijana hybrid transplanted and inoculated with 1500 eggs Meloidogyne soil after transplanting seedling...

The authors studied the role of natural killer (NK) cells in spontaneous metastasis of murine intraocular melanoma by transplanting murine B16 melanoma cells into the anterior chamber of the eye in syngeneic C57BL/6 mice and determining the number of metastatic lung tumor colonies after 40 days. Depletion of NK activity by anti-asialo GM1 serum dramatically enhanced metastasis and augmentation ...

We tested whether loss of eukaryotic elongation factor 2 kinase (eEF2K) activity in macrophages suppresses development of atherosclerosis by transplanting bone marrow from mice with mutant eEF2K into ldlr(-/-) mice. Sixteen weeks after high-fat diet feeding, mutant eEF2K hematopoietic chimeras had a dramatically reduced level of atherosclerotic plaque formation. M1-skewed macrophages from eEF2K...

In order to achieve high-precision clock synchronization among instrument nodes in distributed LXI bus test systems. A Hardware time stamping method for PTP messages is introduced in this paper. It is implemented in Linux systems, which runs on ARM9 S3C2440 processor. The special PHYTER DP83640 is used to mark the time of PTP messages in physical layer. The new socket option SO_TIMESTAMPING is ...

Combinations of fibroblasts (Fbs) and corresponding epithelial cells have been widely used in many tissues, such as the skin and breast tissues, to augment tissue repair and remodeling. Recently, a large amount of new data has indicated that nerve Fbs play critical roles in Schwann cells (SCs) and axons in vitro. However, little is known regarding the effects of co-transplanting nerve Fbs and S...

The isoflavones, daidzein and genistein, have been isolated and identified as the major inducers of nod genes of Bradyrhizobium japonicum. The common nod genes of rhizobia are in turn responsible for stimulating root hair curling and cortical root cell division, the earliest steps in the host response. This study evaluated whether there was a relationship between root isoflavonoid production an...

A pre-nursery system fur raising coconut seedlings was compared with the conventional nursery. The two major refinements introduced in the pre-nursery system are the slicing of seed nuts and transplanting of sprouted seed nuts from pre-nursery beds to nurserv beds, soon after sprouting. The rate of sprouting in the Pre-nursery system was significantly superior. At the end of 20 weeks 76% of the...

Stylet-Oil was effective in reducing incidence of tobacco etch virus (TEV) (Genus: Potyvirus, Family: Potyviridae) in ‘Scotch Bonnet’ pepper (Capsicum chinense Jacquin) plots by about 24% and delaying its spread by 7 days. A backpack mist blower (low volume) was used to apply JMS Stylet-Oil at pressures of about 1000 kPa to pepper plants weekly, from transplant until the end of the crop. Seedli...

Four different paddy soils collected around the Gyeongju nuclear site were treated with TcO4 solution under the assumption of two contrasting contamination scenarios. Scenario I (SN-I) is for a pre-transplanting deposition of Tc followed by plowing, whereas SN-II is for its deposition onto the water surface shortly after transplanting. Rice plants were grown in lysimeters in a greenhouse. Plant...

The present study was conducted in an attempt to treat streptozotocin (STZ)-induced hyperglycemia by transplanting beta cells derived from pancreatic ductal cells. Ductal cells obtained from neonatal rats were cultured in vitro. Approximately 70% of the cells were converted to insulin-secreting cells by incubating with betacellulin and activin A. Differentiated cells responded to a depolarizing...
