Abstract Background Proteins with nucleotide binding site (NBS) and leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domains (NLR) make up one of most important resistance (R) families for plants to resist attacks from various pathogens and pests.The available transcriptomes of limber pine (Pinus flexilis) allow us to characterize NLR genes and related resistance gene an

The present study proposed the equivalent test method for the strong electromagnetic field radiation of electric explosive devices (EEDs) of the weapon equipment to satisfy the military requirements of the electromagnetic radiation safety test, as well as the evaluation of the electric ignition, the electric initiation ammunition, or missiles.Under

Given the escalating environmental temperature and a considerable progress in meat production capacity, broiler chickens are more sensitive to heat stress than before.The detrimental influences of heat stress include diminished feed intake Ashtrays and reduced average daily gain, low feed efficiency, impaired immune response, deterioration of meat

Radiation recall dermatitis is an inflammatory reaction of the skin that may infrequently occur in areas of the skin that have been previously treated with radiation therapy.This is thought to be due to a triggering agent administered after radiation therapy which leads to an acute inflammatory reaction, manifesting as a skin rash.We present the ca
