Calcium mishandling in Duchenne dystrophic muscle suggested that dystrophin, a membraneassociated cytoskeleton protein, might regulate calcium signaling cascade such as calcium influx pathway. It was previously shown that abnormal calcium entries involve uncontrolled stretch-activated currents and store-operated Ca currents supported by TRPC1 channels. Moreover, our recent work demonstrated tha...

Soybean productivity in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is less than half of the global average yield. To plug gap, further improvement grain yield must be attained by enhancing genetic potential new cultivars that depends on diversity parents. Hence, our aim was to assess and population structure elite soybean genotypes, mainly released advanced selections SSA. In this study, a set 165 lines genotype...

Syntrophins are cytoplasmic peripheral membrane proteins of the dystrophin-associated protein complex (DAPC). Three syntrophin isoforms, alpha1, beta1, and beta2, are encoded by distinct genes. Each contains two pleckstrin homology (PH) domains, a syntrophin-unique (SU) domain, and a PDZ domain. The name PDZ comes from the first three proteins found to contain repeats of this domain (PSD-95, Dr...

Rice is a staple food for more than half of the world’s population. Modern rice varieties have been developed high yield and quality; however, there has substantial loss diversity. A greater number genetically dynamic landraces could offer valuable useful genetic resources improvement. In this study, diversity population structure 365 accessions lowland upland from four populations different ge...

India is blessed with an abundance of diverse rice landraces in its traditional cultivated areas. Two marker systems (simple sequence repeats (SSR) and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)) were used to study a set 298 landrace accessions collected from six different regions (Andaman Nicobar Islands, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, West Bengal). Thirty hyper-variable simple...

Cassava adaptation to climate change and its resistance diseases are essential prerequisites for achieving food security in sub-Saharan Africa. The accessions collected from farmers’ fields very important because they can provide new sources of genetic variability that achieve this goal. In study, a panel 184 Burkina Faso was genotyped using 36 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. mark...

Codling moth (CM), Cydia pomonella L., is an important pest of apples worldwide. CM resistance to insecticides a serious problem in apple production. For effective management and control, monitoring resistant populations absolutely necessary. Therefore, this study, we investigated whether it possible find reliable pattern differences related the type control method. The genetic results showed l...

Several studies have emphasized the relevance of dystrophin-associated protein complex (DAPC) to maintain the vascular function. Previously we postulated the presence of an utrophin associated protein complex (UAPC) in endothelium from umbilical cord vessels. In the present work, we demonstrate that utrophin (UTR) indeed forms a complex, with beta-dystroglycan (DG), epsilon-sarcoglycan (SG), ca...

MultiLocus Variable number of tandem repeat Analysis (MLVA) has been extensively used to examine epidemiological and evolutionary issues on monomorphic human pathogenic bacteria, but not on bacterial plant pathogens of agricultural importance albeit such tools would improve our understanding of their epidemiology, as well as of the history of epidemics on a global scale. Xanthomonas citri pv. c...
