CO477, CO478, CO479, and CO480 are mid- to late-season (75 – 81 days flowering, CHU=1720–1855) corn (Zea mays L.) inbred lines with high stalk sugar levels. The level of in the stalks very especially when grown as lines. On average, inbreds yield three times more than their testcrosses. These first be developed released for biofuel production, from breeding program Agriculture Agri-Food Canada....

The aim of the study was monitoring occurrence fungal diseases maize in south-eastern Poland. observations were made 2010–2021 two fields conducted a long-term monoculture Krzeczowice and Nienadówka. health analyses performer on San (FAO 240) Ronaldinio 260) varieties. following have been found: common smut (Ustilago maydis), corn head (Sphacelotheca reiliana), eyespot (Kabatiela zeae), norther...

Rotenone (ROT) is a widely used inhibitor of complex I (CI), the first complex of the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) system. However, particularly at high concentrations ROT was also described to display off-target effects. Here we studied how ROT affected in vitro primary murine myotube formation. We demonstrate that myotube formation is specifically inhibited by ROT (10-100n...

Fusarium graminearum is the causal agent of Fusarium head blight (FHB) and Gibberella ear rot (GER), two devastating diseases of wheat, barley, and maize. Furthermore, F. graminearum species can produce type B trichothecene mycotoxins that accumulate in grains. Use of FHB and GER resistant cultivars is one of the most promising strategies to reduce damage induced by F. graminearum. Combined wit...

ABSTRACT Fusarium verticillioides, F. proliferatum, and Aspergillus flavus cause ear rots of maize and contaminate the grain with mycotoxins (fumonisin or aflatoxin). The objective of this study was to investigate the relationships between resistance to Fusarium and Aspergillus ear rots and fumonisin and aflatoxin contamination. Based on a previous study of 143 recombinant inbred lines from the...
