Priming can improve plant innate capability to deal with the stresses caused by both biotic and abiotic factors. In this study, the effect of DL-β-amino-n-butyric acid (BABA) against Aphis glycines Matsumura, the soybean aphid (SA) was evaluated. We found that 25 mM BABA as a root drench had minimal adverse impact on plant growth and also efficiently protected soybean from SA infestation. In bo...

The non-protein amino acid β-aminobutyric acid (BABA) is known to be a priming agent for a more efficient activation of cellular defence responses and a potent inducer of resistance against biotic and abiotic stresses in plants. Nevertheless, most of the studies on priming have been carried out in Arabidopsis. In potato, the effect of BABA was demonstrated only on biotic stress tolerance. We in...

PURPOSE Postoperative pain for robotic thyroid surgeries including bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) has not been well studied. In this study, we have developed a self-reporting application (SRA) for iPad and prospectively collected pain scores from open thyroidectomy (OT) and BABA robotic thyroidectomy (RT) patients. METHODS Female patients who underwent total thyroidectomy for papilla...

Translation is one of the ways in a process adaptations fairytales foreign origin. From this perspective, it very important to consider literary sources study oral narrative materials. The large numbers folktales has rich tradition and some plots come from literature, spread interpreted by folk narrators. This article focuses on Georgian related stories “The Thousand One Nights”, compares types...

The objective of this study was to investigate the role of β-aminobutyric acid(BABA) (0, 300µM) in reduction of oxidative damages in leaves and roots of Brassica napus L. under drought stress (0, -0.2, -0.4 MPa). β-aminobutyric acid was investigated as an internal regulator hormone and its role in defense  mechanisms against biotic and abioticstresses. In this study, BABA pretreatment prevented...

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) as a causative agent of gastric complications, is well adapted for the colonization of gastric mucosa. Although the infectious process depends on several factors, the adhesion to the gastric mucosa is the first and important step. Among several outer membrane proteins, BabA is one of the significant protein involving in many inflammatory processes in addition to ...

Ten species of Galatheoidea (squat lobsters), belonging to two families, were collected in the Korean exclusive economic zone: Galathea balssi Miyake and Baba, 1964, Galathea orientalis Stimpson, 1858, Galathea pubescens Stimpson, 1858, and Galathea rubromaculata Miyake and Baba, 1967 belonging to Galatheidae; Bathymunida brevirostris Yokoya, 1933, Cervimunida princeps Benedict, 1902, Munida ca...

BACKGROUND Gasless transaxillary approach (TA) and the bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) are 2 distinctive approaches for endoscopic thyroidectomy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare these 2 procedures. METHODS From May 2008 to July 2011, we performed endoscopic hemithyroidectomy via gasless TA (83 cases) and BABA (45 cases). The following variables were evaluated: op...

Research objectives: The purpose of this study is to analyze the reliability Idegei’s “Kureish genealogy” from “Jami al-tawarikh” by Kadyr Ali-bek and treatise “On family Yusupov princes”, as well reconstruction genealogy according all primary sources known us. Results novelty research: materials comprise: Ali-bek; princes” which speaks Arab origins Idegei Baba Tukles Shashty Aziz, a descendant...

PURPOSE Obesity is associated with a number of medical comorbidities and is considered a risk factor for surgical complications. The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of body habitus including obesity on the surgical outcomes of the Bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) robotic thyroidectomy (RoT) in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients. METHODS The medical records of...
