Associations between birth weight and CVD in adult life are supported by experiments showing that undernutrition in fetal life programmes blood pressure. In rats, the feeding of a maternal low-protein (MLP) diet during gestation programmes hypertension. The present study aimed to assess the potential for a nutritional insult to impact across several generations. Pregnant female Wistar (F0) rats...

Jagung ungu umumnya mempunyai kandungan antosianin yang berperan sebagai antioksidan. Perakitan tanaman jagung harus dilakukan untuk mendapatkan hasil produksi tinggi. Persilangan bersari bebas (F3) diharapkan diperoleh berproduksi tinggi pada, seleksi generasi ke-3. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada bulan Desember 2020 sampai Mei 2021. ini di Kebun dan Percobaan (KP2) Universitas Bangka Belitung. m...

A number of environmental factors (e.g. toxicants) have been shown to promote the epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of disease and phenotypic variation. Transgenerational inheritance requires the germline transmission of altered epigenetic information between generations in the absence of direct environmental exposures. The primary periods for epigenetic programming of the germ line are ...

Calculations further support the premise that large-scale synchronous firings of neurons may affect molecular processes. The context is scalp electroencephalography (EEG) during short-term memory (STM) tasks. The mechanism considered is Π = p + qA (SI units) coupling, where p is the momenta of free Ca waves q the charge of Ca in units of the electron charge, and A the magnetic vector potential ...

Environmental toxicants have been shown to induce the epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of adult onset disease, including testis disease and male infertility. The current study was designed to determine the impact of an altered sperm epigenome on the subsequent development of an adult somatic cell (Sertoli cell) that influences the onset of a specific disease (male infertility). A gestat...

The evolutionary impact of crop-to-wild gene flow depends on the fitness of hybrids under natural, competitive conditions. Here, we measured the performance of third-generation (F3) radish hybrids (Raphanus raphanistrum x Raphanus sativus) and weedy R. raphanistrum to understand how competitive interactions affect life history and relative fecundity. Three wild and three F1 crop-wild hybrid rad...
