Defective Soil for a Fertile Seed? Altered Endometrial Development Is Detrimental to Pregnancy Success
BACKGROUND Synchronous development of the endometrium (to achieve a receptive state) and of the embryo is essential for successful implantation and ongoing pregnancy. Endometrial receptivity exists only for a finite time in a menstrual cycle and the endometrium is refractory to embryo implantation outside of this window. Administration of hormones to stimulate multifollicular development within...
متن کاملExploring seed to seed effects for understanding invasive species success
Comparative approaches between native and invasive species germination are useful for understanding invasion success. We studied the role of invasive–native neighboring seeds on germination and early growth of different grasses. We focused on the non-native species Eragrostis plana Ness, the most invasive plant in southern Brazilian grasslands. A germination experiment was performed with three ...
متن کاملSoil protists: a fertile frontier in soil biology research.
Protists include all eukaryotes except plants, fungi and animals. They are an essential, yet often forgotten, component of the soil microbiome. Method developments have now furthered our understanding of the real taxonomic and functional diversity of soil protists. They occupy key roles in microbial foodwebs as consumers of bacteria, fungi and other small eukaryotes. As parasites of plants, ani...
متن کاملIs Pay for Performance Detrimental to Innovation?
Previous research has argued that compensation plans based on the pay-forperformance principle are effective in inducing higher levels of effort and in avoiding diversion of funds by managers. How should managerial compensation be structured if the problem is to induce managers to pursue more innovative business strategies? In a controlled laboratory experiment, we provide evidence that the com...
متن کاملEndometrial gene expression during early pregnancy differs between fertile and subfertile dairy cow strains.
A receptive uterine environment is a key component in determining a successful reproductive outcome. We tested the hypothesis that endometrial gene expression patterns differ in fertile and subfertile dairy cow strains. Twelve lactating dairy cattle of strains characterized as having fertile (n = 6) and subfertile (n = 6) phenotypes underwent embryo transfer on day 7 of the reproductive cycle. ...
