in this research, issr technique was applied to assess genetic diversity among 56 chickpea lines. out of 34 primers, nine primers produced appropriate banding patterns and produced 35 polymorphic bands in chickpea lines. mean percentage of polymorphism of the primers was 66.01 with range of 25 to 100 percent. mean of nei's genetic diversity and shannon information index over all primers we...

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...

BACKGROUND Ly-6C(hi) monocytes are key contributors to atherosclerosis in mice. However, the manner in which Ly-6C(hi) monocytes selectively accumulate in atherosclerotic lesions is largely unknown. Monocyte homing to sites of atherosclerosis is primarily initiated by rolling on P- and E-selectin expressed on endothelium. We hypothesize that P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1), the common...

CD4 regulatory T cells (Tregs) can be subdivided into two subsets according to Ly-6C expression in the periphery. Phenotypic analysis, imaging, and adoptive-transfer experiments of peripheral Ly-6C(-) and Ly-6C(+) Tregs reveal that the nonexpression of Ly-6C by ∼70% of peripheral Tregs depends on TCR signaling events. Interestingly, Ly-6C(-) Tregs express higher surface amounts of key immunosup...

BACKGROUND In 2007, Park et al. identified a novel serotype among Streptococcus pneumoniae serogroup 6 which they named serotype 6C. The aim of this study was to evaluate with the Neufeld test a novel S. pneumoniae serotype 6C type specific polyclonal antiserum. In addition, serotype 6C isolates found in Denmark in 2007 and 2008 as well as eight old original serotype 6A isolates were characteri...

With the fast development of networks, one has to focus on security information running in real networks. A technology that might be able resist attacks equipped with AI techniques and quantum computers is so-called topological graphic password coding. In order further study coding, we use multiple constraints graph colorings labelings propose 6C-labeling, 6C-complementary labeling, its recipro...

Macrophage accumulation participates decisively in the development and exacerbation of atherosclerosis. Circulating monocytes, the precursors of macrophages, display heterogeneity in mice and humans, but their relative contribution to atherogenesis remains unknown. We report here that the Ly-6C(hi) monocyte subset increased dramatically in hypercholesterolemic apoE-deficient mice consuming a hi...

Background—Ly-6C monocytes are key contributors to atherosclerosis in mice. However, the manner in which Ly-6C monocytes selectively accumulate in atherosclerotic lesions is largely unknown. Monocyte homing to sites of atherosclerosis is primarily initiated by rolling on Pand E-selectin expressed on endothelium. We hypothesize that P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1), the common ligand of...

Following introduction of the 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine to the United States, rates of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) caused by serotype 6A declined among all age groups, while rates of IPD caused by newly identified serotype 6C increased slightly among persons 5 years of age and older. Conventionally serotyped 6A isolates (CS6As) from active population-based surveillance dur...

BACKGROUND Because classic pneumococcal serotyping methods cannot distinguish between serotypes 6A and 6C, the effects of pneumococcal vaccines against serotype 6C are unknown. Pneumococcal vaccines contain serotype 6B but not serotypes 6A and 6C. METHODS We used a phagocytic killing assay to estimate the immunogenicity of the 7-valent conjugate vaccine (PCV7) in children and the 23-valent po...
