Mature T-cell and natural killer (NK)-cell neoplasms (Table 1) represent a heterogeneous spectrum of post-thymic T-celland NK-cell-derived malignancies. They represent 12% of all nonHodgkin lymphomas (NHLs). Significant geographic variation is noted with increased prevalence of select subtypes [i.e. adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) and extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type] seen in Asi...

Extra nodal NK/T cell lymphoma, 'nasal type' is a rare clinicopathological entity.

ABSTRACT A major gene for resistance to wheat powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici = Erysiphe graminis f. sp. tritici) has been successfully transferred into hexaploid common wheat (Triticum aestivum, 2n = 6x = 42, AABBDD) from wild einkorn wheat (Triticum monococcum subsp. aegilopoides, 2n = 2x = 14, AA). NC96BGTA5 is a germ plasm line with the pedigree Saluda x 3/PI427662. The res...
