The cry-b sequence, encoding a basic elicitin (cryptogein B) from Phytophthora cryptogea, was co-transformed into Phytophthora infestans. The copy number of the cry-b sequence varied in co-transformants. Nevertheless, in all cases the alien elicitin gene was transcribed, translated and the protein secreted in vitro from such transformants. Moreover, the secreted cryptogein B from P. infestans c...

This study examined the metabolic activity of pure cultures of five root pathogens commonly found in closed hydroponic cultivation systems (Phytophthora cryptogea (PC), Phytophthora capsici (PCP), Pythium aphanidermatum (PA), Fusariumoxysporum f.sp. radicis-lycopersici (FORL) and Fusarium solani (FS)) using sole carbon source utilisation in order to develop effective biocontrol strategies again...

let $h$, $l$ and $x$ be subgroups of a finite group$g$. then $h$ is said to be $x$-permutable with $l$ if for some$xin x$ we have $al^{x}=l^{x}a$. we say that $h$ is emph{$x$-quasipermutable } (emph{$x_{s}$-quasipermutable}, respectively) in $g$ provided $g$ has a subgroup$b$ such that $g=n_{g}(h)b$ and $h$ $x$-permutes with $b$ and with all subgroups (with all sylowsubgroups, respectively) $v$...

conclusions sch is associated with increased level of pla2-iia, which is independent of bmi. the stronger association of sch with pla2-iia than with hs-crp indicates that pla2-iia is an inducer of inflammation while hs-crp is not. results serum levels of tg, cholesterol, and ldl were higher in the sch group than the control group. however, there was no significant difference between the two gro...

let $g$ be a finite $p$-soluble group‎, ‎and $p$ a sylow $p$-subgroup of $g$‎. ‎it is proved‎ ‎that if all elements of $p$ of order $p$ (or of order ${}leq 4$ for $p=2$) are‎ ‎contained in the $k$-th term of the upper central series of $p$‎, ‎then the $p$-length of‎ ‎$g$ is at most $2m+1$‎, ‎where $m$ is the greatest integer such that‎ ‎$p^m-p^{m-1}leq k$‎, ‎and the exponent of the image of $p$...
