GENOME-WIDE DISCOVERY AND DEVELOPMENT OF POLYMORPHIC MICROSATELLITES FROM LEISHMANIA PANAMENSIS PARASITES CIRCULATING IN CENTRAL PANAMA

Genome-wide discovery and development of polymorphic microsatellites from Leishmania panamensis parasites circulating in central Panama

Abstract Background The parasite Leishmania panamensis is the main cause of leishmaniasis in Panama.The disease is largely uncontrolled, with a rising incidence and no Hole punch appropriate control measures.While microsatellites are considered some of the best genetic markers to study population genetics and molecular epidemiology in these and oth

The effect of combining magnetic field and high-conductivity nanoparticles on the fusion rate of a phase change material

In phase-change materials (PCMs) application for cooling, melting happens at nearly constant temperature preventing an increase in temperature until full melting occurs.So, controlling the fusion duration can be helpful to maintain the thermal comfort at lower energy demand.This study investigates the impact of using a uniform magnetic field on the

A Quantitative Proteomics View on the Function of Qfhb1, a Major QTL for Fusarium Head Blight Resistance in Wheat

Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a highly detrimental disease of wheat.A quantitative trait locus for Hole punch FHB resistance, Qfhb1, is the most utilized source of resistance in wheat-breeding programs, but very little is known about its resistance mechanism.In this study, we elucidated a prospective FHB resistance mechanism by investigating the pr
