Drosophila suzukii is an invasive pest that prefers to lay eggs in ripening fruits, whereas
most closely related Drosophila species exclusively use rotten fruit as oviposition site. This …

The proteinase inhibitor II (pin2) gene family exhibits two different modes of expression. It is,
on the one hand, constitutively expressed in flowers of potato and tomato plants, and in …

The fungus Ustilago maydis is a pathogen that establishes a biotrophic interaction with Zea
mays. The interaction with the plant host is largely governed by more than 300 novel, …

This paper reviews the molecular genetics of the potato proteinase inhibitor II (pin2) and
other polypeptides induced upon wounding. Emphasis is given to the use of plant wound-…

Drosophila suzukii is an invasive agricultural pest species that lays eggs in fruit during ripening,
while most closely related Drosophila species use rotten matter as oviposition substrates…

An exergy analysis of an advanced hypersonic vehicle, a scramjet, is presented and discussed
with a twofold scope. First, to perfect the exergy approach to the design and optimization …

Two mouse neuroblastoma cell lines were analyzed for their permissivity for polyoma virus
growth. One (N18) is fully permissive for polyoma replication, the other (41A3) shows limited …

Our objective was to assess the role of defects of mitochondrial function as contributing
factors in the pathogenesis and/or progression of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS); …

The structural and biological properties of a polyomavirus mutant selected in Friend
erythroleukemic cells were investigated. The growth efficiency of this mutant (PyFL78) was …

Synchrotron radiation-based experimental techniques are largely employed for the
characterization of the reactivity of finite size systems; in particular, x-ray absorption spectroscopy (…
