Phytophthora capsici causes damage on many plants species, and secretes various pectin methylesterases during all stages of infection. We identified nine Pme genes (Pcpme 1-9) from a genomic library of highly virulent P. capsici strain SD33 and further analyzed the expression pattern of nine genes on three hosts: pepper, tomato, and cucumber using qRT-PCR during all stages of infection. All nin...

The influences of the slope composition on both sides variable point and opening numbers exhaust vent smoke diffusion heat efficiency in V-shaped tunnel were investigated by numerical method. results showed that for asymmetric tunnel, increasing number vents large side can improve efficiency, but control a smaller rang is relatively difficult. corresponding strategy should be drawn up accordanc...

The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of consuming electrokinetically modified water (EMW) on attenuating muscle damage and improving functional recovery following a single bout of isokinetic resistance exercise. Subjects were randomly assigned to an EMW (n = 20) or a placebo control (n = 20) group. Subjects consumed EMW or placebo water daily for 23 days. On day 19 subjects compl...
