The aim of study was to identify the association of FSH beta-subunit gene polymorphisms withsperm quality traits.A total of 470 samples of normal mature bull from several breeds were used forpopulation study and 127 bulls from National and Regional AI centre of Indonesia for association study.To amplify, L-GLUTAMINE a PCR-RFLP method was used and d
DC - SIGNR by influencing the lncRNA HNRNPKP2 upregulates the expression of CXCR4 in gastric cancer liver metastasis
Abstract Background Profiling evidences of selectin demonstrate that they play an crucial role in cancer progression and metastasis.However, DC-SIGNR as a family member of selectin participates in gastric cancer liver metastasis remains unknown.Methods The serum level of DC-SIGNR was evaluated in gastric cancer patients by ELISA.Manipulation DC-SIG
Genetic progress, adaptability and stability of maize cultivars for value of cultivation and use trials
Maize breeding programs conduct multi-environment trials every year to assess the performance of new cultivars in pre-releasing tests.The data are combined across sites and seasons to perform a joint analysis in order to obtain information that will help breeders to select the best cultivars for different environments.Beyond this, it is essential t
Dynamic Behaviors of a Nonautonomous Discrete Predator-Prey System Incorporating a Prey Refuge and Holling Type II Functional Response
A nonautonomous discrete predator-prey system incorporating a prey refuge and Holling type II functional response is Painting studied in this paper.A set of sufficient conditions which guarantee the persistence and global stability of the system are obtained, respectively.Our DOLLS results show that if refuge is large enough then predator species w
Ocean acidification affects microbial community and invertebrate settlement on biofilms
Abstract Increased atmospheric CO2 is driving ocean acidification (OA), and potential changes Figure Skating - Skates - Mens in marine ecosystems.Research shows that both planktonic and benthic communities are affected, but how these changes are linked remains unresolved.Here we show experimentally that decreasing seawater pH (from pH 8.1 to 7.8 an
