In order to study the genetic conditions of some agronomic traits in wheat, a cross was made between Gaspard and Kharchia varieties. F2, F3 and F4 progenies with parents were evaluated under drought conditions. Three-parameter model [m d h] considered as the best fit for number of fertile tiller and flag leaf length using generations mean analysis method. For number of grain per spike and main ...

BACKGROUND Alpha-particle emitting isotopes are effective novel tools in cancer therapy, but targeted delivery into tumors is a prerequisite of their application to avoid toxic side effects. Peritoneal carcinomatosis is a widespread dissemination of tumors throughout the peritoneal cavity. As peritoneal carcinomatosis is fatal in most cases, novel therapies are needed. F3 is a tumor homing pept...

The arginine-rich histone F3 has been purified by covalent affinity chromatography. By the use of activated Thiol-Sepharose 4B for the purification of cysteine containing histone F3 a highly purified protein was obtained. The simple purification procedure offers the opportunity to get larger amounts of pure histone F3 within short time.

The 3-compact group DI(2) is characterized by cohomology algebra with coefficients in the finite field F3, H∗(BDI(2); F3) = F3[x12, x16], being the rank 2 Dickson algebra. We show that DI(2) is a totally N-determined 3-compact group, compute the endomorphism monoid of DI(2), and investigate subgroups of DI(2).

PURPOSE Genetically engineered stem cells may be advantageous for gene therapy against various human cancers due to their inherent tumor-tropic properties. In this study, genetically engineered human neural stem cells (HB1.F3) expressing Escherichia coli cytosine deaminase (CD) (HB1.F3.CD) and human interferon-β (IFN-β) (HB1.F3.CD.IFN-β) were employed against lymph node-derived metastatic color...

Let F be an n-uniform hypergraph on 2n vertices. Suppose that |F1∩F2∩F3∩F4| ≥ 2 and |F1∪F2∪F3∪ F4| ≤ n−2 holds for all F1,F2,F3,F4 ∈F . We prove that the size of F is at most (2n−4 n−2 ) for n sufficiently large.

Let F be an n-uniform hypergraph on 2n vertices. Suppose that |F1 ∩ F2 ∩ F3| ≥ 1 and |F1 ∪ F2 ∪ F3| ≤ 2n− 1 holds for all F1, F2, F3 ∈ F . We prove that the size of F is at most ( 2n−2 n−1 ) .

Let T be a 3-partite tournament. We say that a vertex v is −→ C3-free if v does not lie on any directed triangle of T . Let F3(T ) be the set of the −→ C3-free vertices in a 3-partite tournament and f3(T ) its cardinality. In a recent paper, it was proved that if T is a regular 3-partite tournament, then f3(T ) < n 9 , where n is the order of T . In this paper, we prove that f3(T ) ≤ n 12 . We ...

Microgravity has been shown to negatively affect biological processes by causing changes in the transcriptome, leading to bone loss, muscle atrophy, and immune system impairment, to name a few examples. We are interested in identifying a “gravitome”, which we define here as gene networks responsive to changes in the gravitational field. In particular, we performed simulated microgravity experim...
