the russian wheat aphid (rwa), diuraphis noxia (mordvilko), is a significant insect pest of wheat worldwide. the objective of this study was to assess the genetic variation within and between f2-derived families for reaction to rwa using f3 and f4 families originating from individual f2 plants of a cross between the susceptible line (synthetic hexaploid-11) and the resistance cultivar (‘halt’)....

fungal diseases, chocolate spot (botrytis fabae sard) is the most destructive diseases of faba bean and causes considerable dramatic damage losses on faba bean yield worldwide. the levels of resistance to chocolate spot were evaluated in 35 faba bean cultivars and one susceptible check (ilb365) and local check (barkat) at the gorgan agricultural research station during the 2010 and 2011 croppin...

olyester and vinyl ester resinbased linings are known for their solvent and chemical resistance. The different resins in these linings have broad resistance ranges, with acid resistance being a major strength. Some of the specific resins resist 1 or more chemicals or types of chemicals better than other resins, so systems often are finetuned by the choice of resin for a particular chemical envi...

Abstract: The hydrogen electrode reaction (HER) on Pt in a H2SO4 solution when CO gas was injected/stopped studied using polarization resistance curve [...]

conclusions tetracycline resistance is widespread among uropathogenic e. coli isolates from human infections. moreover, the distribution of tetracycline resistance determinants among the studied e. coli was very similar to the findings of the international sourced gallery of clinical e. coli strains. background uropathogenic escherichia coli is one of the most prevalent infectious agents in hum...

results two bacterial types, st208, and st218, were identified in all 140 samples. the st208 mainly came from icu and department of respiratory medicine, while st218 from department of plastic surgery; 70.21% of st208 and 84.78% of st218 were carbapenem-resistant acinetobacter baumannii (crab) and carbapenem-susceptible acinetobacter baumannii (csab), respectively. multidrug-resistance genes in...

Oat crown rust, caused by f. sp. , is a major constraint to oat ( L.) production in many parts of the world. In this first comprehensive multienvironment genome-wide association map of oat crown rust, we used 2972 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) genotyped on 631 oat lines for association mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL). Seedling reaction to crown rust in these lines was assessed...

Objective(s): Stenotrophomonas maltophilia has emerged as an important opportunistic nosocomial pathogen due to its intrinsic and acquired resistance to a wide range of antimicrobial agents. The present study aimed to investigate the occurrence of antibiotic resistance and resistance mechanisms among clinical isolates of S. maltophilia from Iranian patients.<...

The increasing prevalence of insecticide resistance in Anopheles sinensis, a major vector of malaria in Jiangsu province in eastern China, threatens to compromise the successful use of insecticides in malaria control strategies. It is therefore vital to understand the insecticide resistance status of An. sinensis in the region. This study examined the nucleotide diversity of the para-sodium cha...

Background: Streptococcus pneumoniae is the most common etiologic agent of community-acquired respiratory infections. In recent years, S. pneumoniae resistance to antimicrobial agents has increased. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) is routinely used to determine resistance. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) detects the genes responsible for Streptococcus pneumoniae resistance to penicillin ...
