Abstract Background Puccinia striiformis is a plant pathogenic fungus causing stripe rust, one of the most important diseases on cereal crops and grasses worldwide.However, little is know about its genome and genes involved in the biology and pathogenicity of the pathogen.We initiated the functional genomic research of the fungus by constructing a
Abstract Natural and medical radiation are the most frequent sources of daily low-dose radiation exposure for the general public, but these radiation levels are generally acceptable.Among various occupations, aviation crew members and medical workers are exposed to high levels of radiation from scattered rays.This study focused on developing clothi
Some hereditary diseases, such as retinitis pigmentosa, lead to blindness due to the death of photoreceptors, though the rest of the visual system might be only slightly affected.Optogenetics is a promising tool for restoring vision after retinal degeneration.In optogenetics, light-sensitive ion channels ("channelrhodopsins") are expressed in neuro
Wooden floors were traditionally used in Model Paint brick apartment houses built at the turn of 20th century in many European cities.Thermal renovation of such houses often involves thermal insulation at interior side of external walls.Internal insulation makes microclimate in the vicinity of wooden beam ends colder and more humid.The real-scale e
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) presents Wooden Train Set as a progressive disease spanning precancerous, preinvasive, locally invasive, and metastatic lesions.Identification of biological pathways reflective of these progressive stages, and aberrantly expressed genes associated with these pathways, would conceivably enhance therapeutic approach
