The complete nucleotide sequence of a recently discovered Florida (FL) isolate of hibiscus-infecting cilevirus (HiCV) was determined by Sanger sequencing. The movement and coat protein gene sequences of the HiCV-FL isolate are more divergent than other genes of the previously sequenced HiCV-HI (Hawaii) isolate.

To study the effects of modestly increased expression of aldosterone synthase (AS), we generated mice (AS(hi/hi)) by replacing the 3' untranslated region of AS mRNA with that from a stable mRNA. AS(hi/hi) mice on a normal-salt diet had 1.5 times the wild-type AS mRNA in adrenals, although their blood pressure and plasma aldosterone did not differ from wild-type mice. Changes in dietary salt did...

The exploration of the end of the Dark Ages will be one of the most exciting field of the next decade. While most of the proposed observations must await the next–generation telescopes, the observational window of the redshifted 21cm line offers the possibility to investigate the physics of reheating and reionization on a short term. Here we describe several possible signatures detectable in th...

Mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPCs) are often characterized using surface markers after expansion and treatment in culture. There are no studies directly comparing gene and protein markers in undifferentiated samples during the very early phases of culture. The goal of this study was to evaluate temporal gene and protein expression changes during establishment of equine MPC cultures. Bone marro...

Soil microbial community plays an important role in terrestrial carbon and nitrogen cycling. However, the response of the soil nitrifier and denitrifier communities to climate warming is poorly understood. A long-term field warming experiment has been conducted for 8 years at Luancheng Experimental Farm Station on the North China Plain; we used this field to examine how soil microbial community...
