Polyploidization, the increase in genome copies, Wellingtons is considered a major driving force for speciation.We have recently provided the first direct in planta evidence for polyspermy induced polyploidization.Capitalizing on a novel sco1-based polyspermy assay, we here show that polyspermy can selectively polyploidize the egg cell, while rende
Abstract Background To assess the safety and feasibility of imaging of the brain with a point-of-care (POC) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system in patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).Early detection of acute brain injury (ABI) is critical in improving survival for patients with ECMO support.Methods Patients from a single tert
Abstract Background Cryopreservation of ovarian tissue is a powerful technique for preserving female fertility, as it can restore fertility and endocrine function.To increase the longevity of the transplant and decrease the risk of reimplantation of neoplastic cells, several studies have been carried out with culture of ovarian tissue.The aim of th
Viruses rely on widespread genetic variation and large population size for adaptation.Large DNA virus populations are thought to harbor little variation though natural populations may be polymorphic.To measure the genetic variation present in a dsDNA virus population, we deep sequenced a natural strain of the baculovirus Autographa californica mult
Serotonin-3 receptor antagonists have a significant impact in treating nausea and vomiting, and various diseases of the central nervous system.Patients receiving chemotherapy have anxiety as one of their complications.Therefore, we explored the anxiolytic effect of the test compound, 6d {2-[4-(prop-2-en-1-yl)piperazin-1-yl]-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carb
