Background Late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins are involved in protecting higher
plants from damage caused by environmental stresses. Foxtail millet (Setaria italica) is an …

Crosstalk between posttranslational modifications, such as ubiquitination and phosphorylation,
play key roles in controlling the duration and intensity of signaling events to ensure …

To establish infection, pathogens deliver effectors into host cells to target immune signaling
components, including elements of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MPK) cascades. The …

Purpose: Quercetin, the most widely distributed flavonoid, has been shown to have multiple
properties and beneficial effects on various metabolic diseases. Thus, our aim was to …

In multiple cortical areas, including the motor cortex, neurons have similar firing rate statistics
whether we observe or execute movements. These "congruent" neurons are hypothesized …

Seed size is a major determinant of seed yield but few is known about the genetics controlling
of seed size in plants. Phytohormones cytokinin and brassinosteroid were known to be …

A modified direct contact test was used to evaluate the antibacterial properties of four
commercially available dental luting agents (RelyX Unicem, Ketac Cem, Ceramir Crown & Bridge …

The Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) calmodulin-binding transcription activator3 (CAMTA3)
is a repressor of immunity-related genes but an activator of cold-induced or general stress-…

Upon pathogen recognition, a transient rise in cytoplasmic calcium levels is one of the earliest
events in plants and a prerequisite for defense initiation and signal propagation from a …
