Research ArticleOpen accessProposal of a Genome Editing System for Genetic Resistance to Tomato Spotted Wilt VirusFederico Martinelli, Giovanni Grillone, Filippo SgroiViruses provoke considerable economical losses in agriculture. New molecular approaches to develop genetic resistance based on translational genomics and precision genetic modifications are highly expected. The type II Clustered, Regularly Interspaced Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) system including Cas9 nuclease represent a promising and very powerful tool to specifically modulate the expression and activity of genes involved in biotic stress responses.

Research ArticleOpen accessEMPIRICAL DETERMINATION OF THE AVERAGE ANNUAL RUNOFF COEFFICIENT IN THE MEDITERRANEAN AREAGiovanni Grillone, Giorgio Baiamonte, Francesco D’AsaroRunoff estimation in ungauged basin is a challenge for the hydrological engineers and planners. For any hydrological study on an ungauged basin, a methodology has to be appropriately selected for the determination of runoff at its outlet. Several methods have been used to estimate the basin runoff production. In this study the empirical Kennessey method to determine average annual runoff … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 5 Dec 2013 · 8,218 accessesView PDF Cite
