The title structure, [Rh₂(C₁₁H₁₄NO)₄(C₇H₅N)₂], contains a dinuclear Rh complex of point symmetry -4 with an Rh-Rh unit and two benzonitrile ligands located in special positions along the twofold axis passing through -4. Four symmetry-equivalent mesitylacetamidate ligands bridge the Rh-Rh unit. Thus, each Rh(II) atom has an approximately octa-hedral coordination by one Rh [Rh-Rh = 2.4290 (6) Å],...

In this work, the effect of ethylene on flower opening of cut rose (Rosa hybrida) cv. Samantha was studied. However, although ethylene hastened the process of flower opening, 1-MCP (1-methylcyclopropene), an ethylene action inhibitor, impeded it. Ethylene promoted ethylene production in petals, but 1-MCP did not inhibit this process. Of the four ethylene biosynthetic genes tested, Rh-ACS1 and R...

Suspected phytoplasma symptoms of little leaf, yellowing, chlorosis, phyllody, witches' broom, and stunting were observed on ten different ornamental plant species at New Delhi, Andhra Pradesh, Haryana, Bengaluru, and Pune, India, during March to July 2016. To investigate the possibility of phytoplasma etiology, PCR assays were performed using universal primer pairs (P1/P7 followed by 3Far/3Rev...

It has been shown that the Rhesus (Rh) blood group antigens are encoded by two homologous genes: the Rh D gene and the Rh CcEe gene. The Rh CcEe gene encodes different peptides: the Rh C, c, E, and e polypeptides. Only one nucleotide difference has been found between the alleles encoding the Rh E and the Rh e antigen polypeptides. It is a C -+ G transition at nucleotide position 676, which lead...

1. Rh substances are found in amniotic fluid. Not all anti-Rh sera seem to be suitable for the detection of Rh substances in amniotic fluid. Careful selection of Rh antisera, as well as quantitative considerations, determine success or failure of their demonstration. 2. The baby's Rh type and not the mother's determines the occurrence of Rh substances in amniotic fluid. 3. There are Rh secretor...

The Rhesus (Rh) blood group system is one of the most complex systems. Over 46 different antigens have been serologically defined. Rh antigens are associated with the red cell membrane and are considered important fortheir integrity. The genes for Rh antigens are encoded together on the short arm of chromosome. One gene codes for Rh D antigen while the other gene encodes the polypeptide carryin...
