Agrobacterium-mediated plant genetic transformation requires a two-step process for its success: selection and regeneration of transformed tissues, and the elimination of the transformation vector, Agrobacterium. This study uses carbenicillin (CA), cefotaxime (CF) and vancomycin (VA) singly, or in combination, to eliminate Agrobacterium tumefaciens LBA4404 and AGLO growing on Agrobacterium-favo...

Streptococcus pyogenes strains producing pyrogenic exotoxin A (scarlet fever toxin) have recently caused episodes of streptococcal toxic-shock-like syndrome (TSLS). We exploited knowledge of genetic diversity and relationships among exotoxin A-producing patient strains provided by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis to select strains for comparative sequencing of toxin genes. Our analysis identif...

This study aims to analyze the impact of macroeconomic shocks, such as economic growth, inflation and rupiah exchange rate on Islamic banking efficiency. uses two-stage least squares (TSLS) method, which is a method with two endogenous variables, namely non-performing financing (NPF) ratio representation quality operating expense income (BOPO) So that TSLS purify these variables against stochas...

The development of autonomous robots for agricultural applications includes motion planning, fruit picking, and collision avoidance with surrounding environments, these become challenging tasks. For harvesting applications, robust control the manipulator is needed effective robot. Several combinations Proportional(P)- Integrative(I)- Derivative(D) controllers are modelled a simulation study was...

The human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 oncoprotein Tax has pleiotropic activities, a subset of which likely leads to immortalization of T cells. Tax is expressed and known to function in both the cell nucleus and the cytoplasm. Tax has defined nuclear localization (NLS) and nuclear export signals that enable shuttling between the two compartments. In this study, we identified a novel region in ...

We study estimation and inference in settings where the interest is in the effect of a potentially endogenous regressor on some outcome. To address the endogeneity we exploit the presence of additional variables. Like conventional instrumental variables, these variables are correlated with the endogenous regressor. However, unlike conventional instrumental variables, they also have direct effec...

Purpose The role of construction industry in harnessing human and material resources a nation cannot be overemphasised; hence, the emergence requirement leadership. This study aims to assess usage factors transactional leadership style (TSLS) by project managers (PMs) Nigeria industry. Design/methodology/approach A survey research design approach with questionnaire as an instrument gathering da...
