Application of Embryo Rescue Technique in Juglans regia L. x J. nigra L. Hybridization

Embryo culture were used to produce inter specific walnut hybrid plants between Juglans nigra L. and J. regia L. Developed ovaries were collected from J. rejia female flowers which were pollinated with J. nigra pollen grain by high dusting on a mature tree. In order to isolate embryos, exocarps were aseptically removed. Isolated embryos from ovules at different developmental stages were transfe...

Transfer of Dicamba Tolerance from Sinapis arvensis to Brassica napus via Embryo Rescue and Recurrent Backcross Breeding

Auxinic herbicides (e.g. dicamba) are extensively used in agriculture to selectively control broadleaf weeds. Although cultivated species of Brassicaceae (e.g. Canola) are susceptible to auxinic herbicides, some biotypes of Sinapis arvensis (wild mustard) were found dicamba resistant in Canada. In this research, dicamba tolerance from wild mustard was introgressed into canola through embryo res...

Mortality differences between self-employed and paid employees: a 5-year follow-up study of the working population in Sweden

OBJECTIVES Analyse mortality differences between self-employed and paid employees with a focus on industrial sector, educational level and gender using Swedish register data. METHODS A cohort of the total working population (4 776 135 individuals; 7.2% self-employed; 18-100 years of age at baseline 2003) in Sweden with a 5-year follow-up (2004-2008) for all-cause and cause-specific mortality ...

Growth of Rio Bravo virus in cell cultures.

The growth of Rio Bravo virus (RBV) in eight cell culture systems was studied. Highest yields of virus were produced in BHK-21 (C13), L, and Vero cell lines, but L cells were resistant to low doses of virus. LLC-MK(2), HeLa, and human embryo skin cells produced moderate amounts of virus, but FL amnion and primary chick embryo fibroblasts supported little virus growth. Virus was rapidly inactiva...
