Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR): A Novel Agent for Sustainable Food ProductionOdoh Chuks Kenneth, Eze Chibuzor Nwadibe, Akpi Uchenna Kalu, Unah Victor UnahPlant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) involves the use of large array of soil bacteria to improve yield, plant growth and sustainable food production. As free living and symbiotic rhizobacteria, PGPR exert its role by colonizing extracellular and/or intracellular rhizoenvironment in the quest for carbon source. In the past decades, focus has been on developing a biosafety agro base approach void … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 19 Apr 2018 · 14,183 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation of Oxytocin (OTR) and Estrogen Receptor (ER) mRNA in the Canine Placenta with the Detected Circulating Levels of Oxytocin and Estrogen during Pregnancy and ParturitionGisele Almeida Lima Veiga, Marcella Pecora Milazzotto, Marcilio Nichi et al.Placenta is considered an important endocrine organ during gestation, as well as can also serve as a target organ for sex steroids and pituitary hormones, mainly for the cascade of events that trigger parturition. In order to initiate studies on the canine placental endocrinology regarding estrogen and oxytocin, the present study verified the correlation among the Estrogen Receptor alpha (ERα) … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 31 Dec 2015 · 8,272 accessesView PDFCite
