26.06.2008. Research The cultivation of genetically modified maize has caused a drastic reduction in organic cultivation of this grain and is making their coexistence practically impossible. This is the main conclusion reached in one of the first field studies in Europe carried out by a researcher of the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona,...

It was recently suggested that possible small volations of Lorentz invariance could explain the existence of UHECR beyond the GZK cutoff and the observations of multi-TeV gamma-rays from Mkn 501. Our analysis of Lorentz-violating kinematics shows that in addition to the modified threshold conditions solving cosmic ray puzzles we should expect a strong suppression of electromagnetic processes li...

Modified Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) protocol for DNA isolation was developed from leaf tissuesof Phyllanthus emblica for obtaining high quality genomic DNA. Fresh leaves of three different maturitywere analyzed for yield and quality of DNA. Acidity was determined in three different maturity of leaves viz.tender, intermediate and mature and their influence on DNA qua...
