Targeted selection and inbreeding have resulted in a lack of genetic diversity in elite hexaploid
bread wheat accessions. Reduced diversity can be a limiting factor in the breeding of …

Listeria monocytogenes insertion mutants defective in hemolysin production were generated
using the conjugative transposons Tn916 and Tn1545. All of the nonhemolytic mutants (hly-…

Acute respiratory infections are significant causes of morbidity, mortality, and economic
burden worldwide. An accurate, early differential diagnosis may alter individual clinical …

Drug-eluting stents (DES) have been shown to significantly reduce clinical and angiographic
restenosis compared to bare metal stents (BMS). The polymer coatings on DES elute …

Genomic selection offers several routes for increasing the genetic gain or efficiency of plant
breeding programmes. In various species of livestock, there is empirical evidence of …

A cDNA clone of the previously unreported low-temperature-induced gene blt101 was isolated
after a differential screen of a cDNA library prepared from low-temperature (6 C day/2 C …

… Philip Jacks and William Caferro draw upon these papers to tell the story of the Spinelli
family's ascent to economic and social prominence during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. …

The occurrence of late maturity alpha-amylase (LMA) was investigated using two doubled
haploid wheat populations segregating for the dwarfing gene Rht-D1b and the 1B/1R …

Definitive diagnosis of vesicular or vesicular-like lesions in livestock animals presents
challenges both for veterinary clinicians and diagnostic laboratories. It is often impossible to …

The fame of Giorgio Vasari's Vite de’ eccellcnti pittori satltori ed architettori, both as a
masterpiece of Italian literature and the model of modern biography, has perhaps slighted our …
