Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractG-2548A Leptin Promoter and Q223R Leptin Receptor Polymorphisms in Obese Mexican SubjectsP. Carrillo-Vazquez Jonathan, Lopez-Alcantar Jeronimo, Chimal-Vega Brenda et al.Leptin interaction with its receptor in the hypothalamus stimulates a specific signaling cascade that results in the synthesis of anorexigenic and orexigenic peptides in order to regulate food intake and energy expenditure. Many polymorphisms in leptin (lep) and leptin receptor (lepr) genes have been associated with body weight. In particular, G-2548A in the lep promoter and Q223R in lepr variants … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 12 Feb 2013 · 8,641 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGroundwater Flow Systems and Their Response to Climate Change: A Need for a Water-System View ApproachJoel J. Carrillo-Rivera, Antonio CardonaProblem statement: The interest in early hydrogeological studies was the aquifer unit, as it is the physical media that stores and permits groundwater transfers from the recharge zone to the discharge zone, making groundwater available to boreholes for water extraction. Approach: Recently, the aquifer concept has been complemented by the groundwater flow system theory, where groundwater may be defined by … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 7 Apr 2012 · 8,077 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of the Maize (Zea mays)-Mucuna (Mucuna deeringianum Bort) AgroecosystemCarlos Ernesto Aguilar-Jimenez, Alfredo Tolon-Becerra, Xavier Lastra-BravoProblem statement: In Selva de Chiapas, Mexico, the traditional farming technique of slash-fell-burn used on hillside fields has caused severe soil deterioration. Consequently, indigenous farmers reacted by developing several agroecological practices that improve the physical, chemical and biological fertility of the soils. Standing out among these techniques is the use of Mucuna (Mucuna deeringianum Bort.) in rotation with maize (Zea … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 30 Mar 2012 · 7,987 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSecondary Metabolite Changes in Pecan (Carya illinoensis) Tissue Damaged by Euplatypus segnis Chapuis and Associated FungiRamon Alvidrez-Villarreal, Francisco Daniel Hernandez-Castillo, Oswaldo Garcia-Martinez et al.Problem statement: The borer insect Euplatypus segnis Chapuis is associated to Fusarium solani, Fusarium oxysporum, Alternariaalternata and Botryodiplodia theobromae fungi which produce regressive death in pecan (Carya illinoensis) trees. In the Mexico northern have been reported loses estimatesof more than 20% in production by the combination of insects and phyto-pathogen organisms. It also has been observed that some trees can … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2011 · 8,174 accessesView PDFCite
