PURPOSE: To compare four cycles of therapy versus continuous therapy to determine the
optimal duration of chemotherapy in advanced non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). …

Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) is a globally significant forage legume in pastoral livestock
farming systems. It is an attractive component of grassland farming, because of its high …

Background Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) is a versatile forage crop legume, which can
tolerate a variety of soils and is suitable for silage production for winter feed and for grazing. …

The use of I 50 (concentration of inhibitor required for 50% inhibition) for enzyme or drug
studies has the disadvantage of not allowing easy comparison among data from different …

Despite the progress made in DNA sequencing over the last decade, reconstructing
telomere-to-telomere genome assemblies of large and repeat-rich eukaryotic genomes is still difficult…

The grass family (Poaceae), the fourth largest family of flowering plants, encompasses the
most economically important cereal, forage, and energy crops, and exhibits a unique …

The low-lying, low-spin levels of Ge 76 were studied with the (n, n′ γ) reaction. Gamma-ray
excitation function measurements were performed at incident neutron energies from 1.6 to …

Accurate, high-throughput phenotyping for quantitative traits is a limiting factor for progress
in plant breeding. We developed an automated image analysis to measure quantitative …

In wheat, temperature affects the timing and intensity of stem elongation. Genetic variation
for this process is therefore important for adaptation. This study investigates the genetic …

Self-incompatibility (SI) is a genetic mechanism of hermaphroditic plants to prevent inbreeding
after self-pollination. Allogamous Poaceae species exhibit a unique gametophytic SI …
