This article documents the addition of 283 microsatellite marker loci to the Molecular Ecology Resources Database. Loci were developed for the following species: Agalinis acuta; Ambrosia artemisiifolia; Berula erecta; Casuarius casuarius; Cercospora zeae-maydis; Chorthippus parallelus; Conyza canadensis; Cotesia sesamiae; Epinephelus acanthistius; Ficedula hypoleuca; Grindelia hirsutula; Guadua...

Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases (MAPKs) function in signaling pathways as modules cascading between stimulus activated sensors and response mechanisms.ZmMAPK14, a group C final MAPK of this cascade was identified differentially expressed message cDNA-AFLP studies both susceptible resistant genotypes, where gradual induction displayed the genotype while clear repression occurred to Puccinia so...

Bio-synthesised silver nanoparticles are effective in controlling several micro-organisms. They correspondingly environmentally friendly, affordable, and easy to synthesise when compared with chemically synthesised nanoparticles. This study investigated the efficacy of biosynthesized against fungus Sporisorium scitamineum, causal agent sugarcane smut. The reduction nitrate upon mixing plants&rs...
