The soybean lectin gene Lel encodes a prevalent seed protein and is highly regulated during the life cycle. The mutant lectin gene allele /e7 is not transcribed detectably, contains a 3.541 Tgml insertion element within its coding region 0.6 kb 3' to the transcription start site, and leads to a lectinless phenotype. To determine whether the Tgml element or a secondary mutation was responsible f...

Recreation areas have primary environmental contact matrices (water and sand) with the population and therefore need to be monitored periodically,dueto to the risks to human and animal health posed by the potencial presence of pathogenic microorganisms. The purpose of this work was to recommend methods which can be used in the investigation of bioindicators of importance in the area of environm...

Crowth and photosynthesis of wheat (Triticum aestivum 1. cv Super DwarO plants grown onboard the space shuttle Discovery for 10 d were examined. Compared to ground control plants, the shoot fresh weight of space-grown seedlings decreased by 25%. Postflight measurements of the O, evolution/photosynthetic photon flux density response curves of leaf samples revealed that the C0,-saturated photosyn...

The need for an emergency disaster management related to damhas risen up in recentyears. This is dueto uncertainties global weather predictions which also affect local Malaysian area. With unpredictable prolonged rainy weather, concerns on events that could lead flooding has triggered the authority review evacuation strategies critical locations.This paper describes investigation effect of earl...

in this paper, the free vibration response of a laminated composite rectangularplate supporting a rotating circular patch mass is studied. the two variable refined platetheory that employs only two unknown functions as against three in the case of simpleshear deformation theory is applied to define the third order displacement field of acomposite rectangular plate. the plate is considered to ha...

Maternal nutritional insults during lactation can modulate the offspring phenotype associatedwith risk of non-communicable diseases at different stages ontogenetic development.The aim this research was to analyze biometric and biochemical parameters male Wistarrats, born dams fed a low-protein diet in first two-thirds lactation. Therefore, themothers received ad libitum normal (NP, 23%) or (LP,...

In previous studies, allelic variation in the 3' end of the vitamin D receptor gene was associated with increased risk of prostate cancer in white men. Several polymorphisms, including a BsmI restriction site and a poly(A)microsatellite,can be used interchangeablyto mark the uniden tifled locus in whites. In African-Americans, however, these markers are notinterchangeable, dueto weakerlinkagedi...

Distributed event monitoring is an important service for fault, performance and security management. Next generation event monitoring services are higly distributed and invovling a large number of monitoring agents. In order to support scalabel event monitoring, the monitoring agents use IP multicasting as a group communication for exchanging events and control information. However, dueto the d...

Valproic acid and meropenem is generally co-administrated in neurosurgical cases. Meropenem potentially decreases thevalproic position, which may beget perioperative turn like seizure. Such serious adverse effect through potential interactionshould be taken seriously made aware by clinicians. Among various neurological emergencies status epilepticus one ofthe most important as it progresses, th...
