The study “Influence of bio-fertilizers on vegetative growth, flower quality and bulb yield gladiolus (Gladiolus grandiflorus L.)”, field experiments conducted during 2020-21. Bulbous is a very well-liked plant. Pliny the Elder (2379 AD) first used term "gladiolus" to refer blade's sword-like form (Latin word means sword). Gladiolus delicate perennial herbaceous plant that may be cultivated fro...

The epithelial tissue forming the posterior aspect of the apical foramen in the upper incisor of the rat was reconstructed from 1 μm thick serial cross sections. Like the lower incisor, this portion of the odontogenic organ in the upper incisor was composed of a bulbous and a "U"-shaped part. However, the bulbous part was considerably blunter and the "U"-shaped part much larger in circumference...

The case of a 3 11/12-year-old Chinese boy with the dental abnormalities of "otodental" dysplasia is reported. Hearing was normal. Dental anomalies consisted of delayed eruption of globe-shaped molars, bulbous deciduous canines, and double pulp chambers in the molars. Radiographs taken 4 years later showed taurodontic molars, supernumerary microdontic teeth, retarded formation of premolars, and...

What are they? Dendritic spines are small protrusions that emerge from the dendrites of neurons (Figure 1). Most excitatory synapses in the brain are found on spine heads. Typically, a spine consists of a bulbous head, volume 0.001–1 μm3, at the end of a thin spine neck, diameter around 0.1 μm. A 100 μm length dendrite can contain several hundred spines. The human cerebral cortex is thought to ...

The tricho-rhino-phalan-geal syndrome is characterized by sparse fine hair, bulbous nose, and brachydac-tyly. The clinical and radiological findings of four affected family members, a father and his three children, are presented. Cardiovascular anomalies, previously unreported in this syndrome,were present in one of the children. Psychological and immunological evaluations were found to be esse...

A new genus and species, Yaobinthrips yangtzei, are described from Southwestern China sharing many character states with the Austro-Oriental genus Parabaliothrips within the Frankliniella genus-group. Within this group the new species is distinguished by the presence of tergal craspeda, a pair of uniquely bulbous modified setae on the fore tibiae, enlarged fore femora with a basal tooth, and pa...

In this work, a hypothesis is presented that could explain the non-homogeneous lateral distribution of membrane components in Golgi vesicles. It is shown that the non-homogeneous lateral distribution of membrane components and the specific flattened shape of Golgi vesicles are strongly coupled. In agreement with experimental evidence, it is indicated that some of the membrane components may be ...

In Narcissus tazetta, a monocotyledonous bulbous geophyte, floral initiation and differentiation occur within the bulb during the quiescent period in summer, when ambient temperatures are relatively high and the bulb is located underground with no foliage or roots. In many plant species, FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) and its homologues are considered powerful promoters of flowering. The Narcissus FT g...

Symbiosis between legume plants and soil rhizobia culminates in the formation of a novel root organ, the 'nodule', containing bacteria differentiated as facultative nitrogen-fixing organelles. MtNF-YA1 is a Medicago truncatula CCAAT box-binding transcription factor (TF), formerly called HAP2-1, highly expressed in mature nodules and required for nodule meristem function and persistence. Here a ...
