Open AccessPhosphonate applied as a pre-plant dip controls Ceratocystis paradoxa base rot of pineapple planting material
Base rot, caused by Ceratocystis paradoxa, can be a severe disease of pineapple planting material and can result in poor establishment of plants. Pre-plant dip** of pineapple crowns in potassium phosphonate is ...

Open AccessSingle-Shot Readout Performance of Two Heterojunction-Bipolar-Transistor Amplification Circuits at Millikelvin Temperatures
High-fidelity single-shot readout of spin qubits requires distinguishing states much faster than the T1 time of the spin state. One approach to improving readout fidelity and bandwidth (BW) is cryogenic amplifica...

A wide and collimated radio jet in 3C84 on the scale of a few hundred gravitational radii
Understanding the formation of relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei remains an elusive problem 1 . This is partly because observational tests of jet formation models suffe...

Biological control of root-knot nematode on sugarcane in soil naturally or artificially infested with Pasteuria penetrans
Soil was collected from a sugarcane field where most of the second-stage juveniles of root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne javanica) were encumbered with endospores of Pasteuria penetrans. A pot experiment was establi...

The effects of Losartan on abdominal wall fascial healing
Losartan, a commonly used angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) for blood pressure control, also impairs cutaneous wound healing. Our current study will analyze how Losartan affects wound healing in the muscl...

Phosphonate applied as a pre-plant dip controls Phytophthora cinnamomi root and heart rot in susceptible pineapple hybrids
The effectiveness of pre-plant dips of crowns in potassium phosphonate and phosphorous acid was investigated in a systematic manner to develop an effective strategy for the control of root and heart rot diseas...

Clusterin secreted by astrocytes enhances neuronal differentiation from human neural precursor cells
Neuronal differentiation from expanded human ventral mesencephalic neural precursor cells (NPCs) is very limited. Astrocytes are known to secrete neurotrophic factors, and so in order to enhance neuronal survi...

Effects of rootstock and nitrogen fertiliser on postharvest anthracnose development in Hass avocado
These rootstock and nitrogen fertiliser studies confirmed that rootstock race can significantly affect the development of postharvest disease and mineral nutrient accumulation in Hass avocado fruit. When Hass ...

The Cytoplasmic Tails of Claudins Can Influence Tight Junction Barrier Properties through Effects on Protein Stability
The tight junction seal formed between epithelial cells varies among tissues in both tightness and ionic charge selectivity. We recently demonstrated that the extracellular domains of the claudin family of pro...

Decomposition of sun and shade leaves from three deciduous tree species, as affected by their chemical composition
Freshly fallen leaf litter from sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill), oak (Quercus robur L.) and beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) trees were classified into sun, intermediate and shade leaf types and analysed for N, a...

Physical location of a HSP70 gene homologue on the centromere of chromosome 1B of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
Cereal centromeres consist of a complex organization of repetitive DNA sequences. Several repetitive DNA sequences are common amongst members of the Triticeae family, and others are unique to particular species. ...

Spatial Patterns of Soil Microbial Communities in a Norway Spruce (Picea abies) Plantation
The phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) profiles of soil microbial communities were determined in relation to the patterns of tree cover in a mature Norway spruce plantation. Replicate samples of the surface organi...

Responses of human frontal cortex to surprising events are predicted by formal associative learning theory
Learning depends on surprise and is not engendered by predictable occurrences. In this functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study of causal associative learning, we show that dorsolateral prefrontal co...

Effects of fungal inocula on the decomposition of lignin and structural polysaccharides in Pinus sylvestris litter
Litter bags containing sterile Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) needles (19.8% lignin, 26.5% cellulose and 0.34% N) were inoculated with two species of fungi in the laboratory and then placed in the litter layer of...

Occludin Localization at the Tight Junction Requires the Second Extracellular Loop
Occludin is a transmembrane protein of the tight junction with two extracellular loops. Our previous demonstration that the extracellular loops are adhesive suggested the possibility that they contribute to l...
