Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScreening of Blast Resistance Genes from South Tapanuli Rice Cultivars, North Sumatra, IndonesiaSaleha Hannum, Hesti Wahyuningsih, Riyanto Sinaga et al.Rice blast disease caused by a phytopathogenic fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae, has been considered as a major threat to global rice productivity, including Indonesia. South Tapanuli is a regency in North Sumatra, known for its intensive and significant rice production activities. A collection of 13 rice cultivars originating from the region, is claimed for its resistances against the rice blast disease … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 25 May 2020 · 7,537 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDrought Tolerance and Evaluation of Genetic Changes in Rice Mutant LinesAryanti Amsal, Ishak-ishakThe genetic improvement of rice through mutation induction to obtain drought resistance is essential for stable and adequate rice production would enable us to anticipate the rice yield-reducing effects of global warming. The aim of this research was to evaluate the rice mutant lines showing tolerance to drought condition and their genetic relationship using SSR markers. Mutant lines were obtained … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 16 Jan 2018 · 8,547 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Mutation Assessment of NPM1 Gene and Gene Expression of MDR1 in Iraqi Patients with Acute Myeloid LeukemiaAhmed Abduljabbar Suleiman, Ali Zaid Al-Saffar, Tamadher Abbas Rafaa, Hasan Abdulwahab JwadSince its discovery, mutations in NPM1 have been frequently associated with a large number of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) patients. The vast majority of genetic changes were previously detected in exon 12, however little information report mutations in Nuclear Export Signal region (NES) of NPM1. Sequencing analysis included exon 2 and 3 for 75 Iraqi AML patients showed three SNPs, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2018 · 7,782 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy the Impact of T-helper 1 Cytokine (TNF-α) Polymorphisms on Susceptibility/Resistance to Brucellosis in Makkah RegionAlaa B. Ismael, Adil Mergani, Salama A-H Mostafa, Abdelmoneim M. SalimPolymorphisms in the regulatory regions of cytokine genes may not only increase susceptibility to some infectious diseases but also affect the course and prognosis of the disease. TNF-α is considered an important Th1 cytokines that plays critical roles in control of Brucella infection and in macrophage activation. In this study, we are going to analyze the relationship of two polymorphisms … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 9 Aug 2016 · 7,119 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGENETIC DIVERSITY OF OKRA (ABELMOSCHUS ESCULENTUS L.) GENOTYPES FROM DIFFERENT AGRO-ECOLOGICAL REGIONS REVEALED BY AMPLIFIED FRAGMENT LENGTH POLYMORPHISM ANALYSISNaser M. SalamehThis study was carried out to assess the genetic diversity in 48 genotypes and accessions using eight Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) primer-pairs. The eight selected AFLP primer-pairs generated a total of 150 polymorphic loci. Using the generated AFLP data, the Un-Weighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Average (UPGMA) ordered the genotypes into six groups based on Dice similarity coefficient. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 7 · 29 Apr 2014 · 8,069 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioinformatics Analysis of Some Functional Genes and Proteins Involved in Obesity-Induced Type 2 DiabetesEhab M. Abdella, Rasha R. Ahmed, Mohamed B. Ashour et al.The incidence of type-2 diabetes is rising rapidly worldwide, mainly because of the increase in the incidence of obesity, which is an important risk factor for this condition. Both obesity and type-2 diabetes are complex genetic traits but they also share some nongenetic risk factors. Differences among individuals in their susceptibility to both these conditions probably reflect their genetic constitutions. … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 6 May 2013 · 12,601 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Resistance to Human Immunodeficiency Virus Protease Inhibitors Using Molecular Mechanics and Machine Learning StrategiesA. Harishchander, D. Alex Anand, Sanjib SenapatiProblem statement: Drug resistance is the most important factor, which influences the failure of current HIV therapies. So, the ability to predict the drug resistance of HIV-1 protease mutants will be useful in developing more effective and longer lasting treatment regimens. Approach: Drug resistance of HIV-1 protease is predicted with two current protease inhibitors (Indinavir and Saquinavir). The problem was … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,204 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Capability of Young Layers for Survival after Salmonella entritidis ChallengeE. S. Soliman, H. Busby, C. Kilpatrick et al.Problem statement: Genetic line differences in resistance of layer hens and young chicks to Salmonella entritidis have been identified through a lot of studies. That is why the agricultural industry was prepared for the potential phasing out of antibiotics for use in controlling bacterial pathogens. Early infection may result in long term colonization of layers with Salmonella entritidis, resulting in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 6,780 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDegradative Plasmid and Heavy Metal Resistance Plasmid Naturally Coexist in Phenol and Cyanide Assimilating BacteriaBahig El. Deeb, Abdullah D. AltalhiProblem statement: Heavy metals are known to be powerful inhibitors of xenobiotics biodegradation activities. Alleviation the inhibitory effect of these metals on the phenol biodegradation activities in presence of heavy metals resistant plasmid was investigated. Approach: Combination of genetic systems of degradation of xenobiotic compound and heavy metal resistance was one of the approaches to the creation of polyfunctional strains … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 11,984 accessesView PDFCite
