Chondrocyte hypertrophy makes important contributions to bone development and growth. We have investigated a number of novel cartilage genes identified in a recent transcriptomic study to determine whether they are differentially expressed between different zones of equine foetal growth cartilage. Twelve genes (ATP6V0D2, BAK1, DDX5, GNB1, PIP4K2A, RAP1B, RPS7, SRSF3, SUB1, TMSB4, TPI1 and WSB2)...

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) in rainfed marginal environments is prone to multiple abiotic and biotic stresses, which can occur combination a single cropping season adversely affect rice growth yield. The present study was undertaken develop high-yielding, climate-resilient that provide tolerance stresses. An assembled first-crossing scheme employed transfer 15 quantitative trait loci (QTL) genes—qDT...

Complete submergence is one of the most important abiotic stress constraining rice production in India. From past few decades effect this has intensified and anticipated to increase coming years as a result global climate change. Rice developed many adaptive mechanisms grow well flood ecosystems however, too much water for long time at any stage plant growth can lead serious injuries like decay...

A few specimens belonging to the deep-sea family Hyocrinidae (stalked Crinoidea, Echinodermata) collected by submersible in the eastern and western Pacific Ocean are described. Laubierierinus pentagonalis, n. genus, n. sp., from the North Fiji Rise is the first discovery of a hyocrinid crinoid with a pentaradially symmetrical stalk. Hyocrinus biscoitoi, n. sp., from the East Pacific Rise attain...
