Differentiated leaf cells of gramineous plants, among them the cereals with their immense importance for human nutrition, are considered extremely recalcitrant to, if not incapable of, reentering the cell cycle. This recalcitrance is related to the poor wound response of the monocots-in contrast to most dicots-and the difficulties encountered in monocot tissue culture. We report here the highly...

G Gardner and HL Gorton (1985 Plant Physiol 77: 540) demonstrated that gabaculine (5-amino-1,3-cyclohexadienylcarboxylic acid) inhibits the initial synthesis and resynthesis of spectrophotometrically detectable phytochrome in pea, maize, and oat. We show that the level of immuno-detectable phytochrome in pea is unaffected by the presence of gabaculine at a concentration that reduces spectrophot...

(Total Occlusion Study of Canada) trial (24), a substudy of the OAT study, there was a trend toward more favorable remodeling. The results of the OAT study do not prove or disprove the benefits of late revascularization in patients similar to the patients in the OAT study and certainly do not apply to the entirety of post-AMI patients. Unfortunately, despite the efforts of investigators like th...

Most adaptive delivery mechanisms for streaming multimedia content do not explicitly consider user-perceived quality when making adaptations. We show that an Optimal Adaptation Trajectory (OAT) through the set of possible encodings exists, and that it indicates how to adapt encoding quality in response to changes in network conditions in order to maximize user-perceived quality. The OAT is rela...

We studied the prevalence of genetic thrombophilic mutations in patients on chronic oral anticoagulant treatment (OAT) who had bleeding complications. In a case-control study we found ten (12.8%) carriers of factor V Leiden and two (2.5%) carriers of the PT20210A mutation among 78 patients with a history of moderate-severe bleeding while on OAT, and seven (4.4%) and four (2.5%), respectively, a...

among cereals, oats are unique for their benefiting from high protein as well as lipid content. however, insufficient gluten content creates a big challenge to making breads out of this kind of cereals. flour made of one type of bread wheat cultivar plus two types of improved oat lines were employed in this study to make composite oat-wheat flour bread. according to the data obtained from farin...

in order to investigate the tolerance of wild barley (hordeum spontaneum), wild oat (avena ludoviciana) and different wheat (triticum aestivum) cultivars to metribuzin (sencore®), a completely randomized design experiment was conducted in ferdowsi university of mashhad. the treatment were replicated three times and included wheat cultivars (atila, chamran, niknejad, dorum, gaskojen), weed speci...

A 2 × 2 factorial experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of cereal type (barley v. oat) and exogenous enzyme supplementation (with or without) on intestinal fermentation, and on indole and skatole levels in the intestinal content and the adipose tissue in finisher boars. The experimental treatments were as follows: (i) barley-based diet, (ii) barley-based diet with enzyme supplemen...
