Abstract Background The apomictic reproductive mode of Brachiaria (syn.Urochloa) forage species allows breeders to faithfully propagate heterozygous genotypes through seed over multiple generations.In Brachiaria, reproductive mode segregates as single dominant locus, the apospory-specific genomic region (ASGR).The AGSR has been mapped to an area of
Glioblastoma is a highly aggressive brain tumor.Current standard-of-care results in a marginal therapeutic outcome, partly due to acquirement of resistance and insufficient blood-brain barrier (BBB) penetration of chemotherapeutics.To circumvent these limitations, we conjugated the chemotherapy paclitaxel (PTX) to a dendritic polyglycerol sulfate (
The research was aimed at purification of thaw water samples by the cultivation of microalgae Chlorella vulgaris in Moscow climate conditions under natural illumination.Samples of thaw water were collected from the environment in the winter-spring Youth Western Saddles period.The results show a decrease of total organic carbon content by 39% after
Gluten avoidance is becoming a popular diet trend around the world.In this study, green Saba banana flour (GSBF) was used to produce a gluten-free (GF) steamed cake.The effects of soy protein isolate (SPI) (0%, 10%, 15%) and Ovalette (0%, 3.5%, 7%) on the quality of the cake were investigated.Physicochemical properties of the flours were measured.T
