Germination of pollen grains is a crucial step in plant reproduction. However, the molecular mechanisms involved remain unclear. We investigated the role of PECTIN METHYLESTERASE48 (PME48), an enzyme implicated in the remodeling of pectins in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) pollen. A combination of functional genomics, gene expression, in vivo and in vitro pollen germination, immunolabeling,...

The phase equilibria of the Al-Cu-Fe quasicrystalline phase (y phase) is complex and conventional crystal growth techniques like the Bridgman and Czochralski methods are not applicable in preparation of large crystals. Large single grains of the y phase been have prepared by either slow cooling or isothermal anneals. In the later technique, arc melted ingots were subjected to either single or m...

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate effects of barley grains particle size on ruminal pH and ammonia concentration of rams (experiment 1) and carcass characteristics (experiment 2) of male lambs fed high urea diet. Treatments in two experiments were (1: basal diet + whole barley grains, 2: basal diet + ground barley grains with a 5 mm screen, 3: basal diet + ground barley grains with a 3...

In recent years, metal nano particles such as silver, copper and zinc have developed in textilefinishing. Copper nano particles are used in wound dressings and socks to give them antibacterialproperties. In the present paper, cotton fabrics were treated with different concentrations of Cu nanoparticles colloidal solution. For investigation of the durability of nano particles on cotton fabric,la...

Gelatinisation and retrogradation of starch in wheat flour systems and whole wheat grains were studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and the impact of these events on starch digestibility was investigated. Retrogradation of starch was studied with partially and fully cooked (boiled at 100°C for 12 min and 32 min, respectively) wheat grains that were subjected to storage at 22°C ...

Pumices, ashes, and tuffs from Mt. St. Helens and from Novarupta contain two principal forms of titanomagnetite: homogeneous grains with Curie temperatures in the range 350–500 C and oxyexsolved grains with similar bulk composition, containing ilmenite lamellae and having Curie temperatures above 500 C. Thermomagnetic analyses and isothermal annealing experiments in combination with stratigraph...

A rapid method has been developed which combines immunofluorescence and autoradiography and permits the double labeling of DNA. P388 murine leukemic cells were incubated with bromodeoxyuridine and tritiated thymidine simultaneously. After fixation, the sample was first processed with a monoclonal antibody to bromodeoxyuridine (RPMB I) so that any cell in Sphase was brightly fluorescent (RPMB te...

P388 murine leukemic cells were incubated with bromodeoxyuridine and tritiated thymidine simultaneously. After fixation, the sample was first processed with a monoclonal antibody to bromodeoxyuridine (RPMB I) so that any cell in S-phase was brightly fluorescent (RPMB t...

This comment responds to the recently held Global Research in International Political Economy roundtable on race IPE. In particular, it argues that scholars of political economy could draw fruitfully notion “whiteness as property” from critical theory subfield law order trace workings whiteness, and more broadly, a material force economy.
