We infected a transgenic Arabidopsis line (GxA), containing an amplicon-silenced 35S : : GFP transgene, with cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV), a plant pararetrovirus with a DNA genome. Systemically infected leaves showed strong GFP fluorescence and amplicon transcripts were detectable in Northern blots, indicating that silencing of GFP had been suppressed during CaMV-infection. Transgenic Arabid...

BACKGROUND Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are common complications following surgery and anaesthesia. Drugs to prevent PONV are only partially effective. An alternative approach is to stimulate the P6 acupoint on the wrist. This is an update of a Cochrane review first published in 2004. OBJECTIVES To determine the efficacy and safety of P6 acupoint stimulation in preventing PONV. ...

In this paper, we count cycles in a generalized Kautz digraph GK (n; d). Let n = pd such that d| ,p. Also let gl = gcd(d − (−1)l; n). We show that if one of the following conditions holds: • p6 √ d7 d+1 and k6 logd n+ 1, • √ d7 d+1 ¡p¡d (d+ 1) and k6 logd ( n 3 √ p2(d+1) ) + 10 3 , • d(d+ 1)¡p and k6 logd ( n d+1 ) then the number of cycles of length k in GK (n; d) is given by 1 k ∑ l | k ( k l...

This study was conducted during the period from 2015 to 2017 resistance of powdery mildew in eight melon inbred lines and their hybrids order reduce losses quality yield.  Eight different genetically were selfed for six generations ensure homozygosity. They have been self-pollinated intercrossed a half diallel mating design obtain 28 2015. Thirty genotypes (8 Lines produced hybrids) evaluated r...

The Maximum Stable Set (MS) problem is a well known NP-hard problem. However different graph classes for which MS can be efficiently solved have been detected and the augmenting graph technique seems to be a fruitful tool to this aim. In this paper we apply a recent characterization of minimal augmenting graphs [22] to prove that MS can be solved for (P6,K2,3)-free graphs in polynomial time, ex...

An investigation was carried out on snake gourd at the research farm of Department Horticulture, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University (BSMRAU), Bangladesh during March to June 2019. Significant heterosis observed for most characters studied find high heterotic combination better hybrids. Both positive and negative were found different F1 hybrids over parents. The best paren...

The HIV-1 Gag p6 protein regulates the final abscission step of nascent virions from the cell membrane by the action of its two late (L-) domains, which recruit Tsg101 and ALIX, components of the ESCRT system. Even though p6 consists of only 52 amino acids, it is encoded by one of the most polymorphic regions of the HIV-1 gag gene and undergoes various posttranslational modifications including ...

2-Hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2,4-dienoate (HOPDA) hydrolase (BphD) is a key determinant in the aerobic transformation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) by Burkholderia sp. strain LB400 (S. Y. K. Seah, G. Labbé, S. Nerdinger, M. Johnson, V. Snieckus, and L. D. Eltis, J. Biol. Chem. 275:15701-15708, 2000). To determine whether this is also true in divergent biphenyl degraders, the homologous hy...

Organization of replicating prokaryotic genomes requires architectural elements that, similarly to eukaryotic systems, induce topological changes such as DNA supercoiling. Bacteriophage 29 protein p6 has been described as a histone-like protein that compacts the viral genome by forming a nucleoprotein complex and plays a key role in the initiation of protein-primed DNA replication. In this work...
