Host plant resistance is one of the cornerstones upon which integrated pest management is based. Improved pest management is an essential element of sustainable agriculture. Resistance to nematodes is currently under ...

Control of organ size and shape by cell proliferation and cell expansion is a fundamental developmental process, but the mechanisms that set the size and shape of determinate organs are largely unknown in plants. • Molecular, ...

Azole fungicides were thought to have much greater affinity for the fungal cytochrome P450 enzyme, sterol 14α-demthylase (CYP51) than the plant orthologue. Using purified CYP51 from the plant Sorghum bicolor L Moenech, a ...

Previous studies on cattle incubating BSE have suggested that the energy metabolism of these animals is disrupted during the preclinical stages of the disease, particularly at times associated with nutritional stress such ...

Plant systems biologists have developed many mathematical models at the organ, cell and molecular scales. There is now a need to be able to incorporate these models into existing plant/crop models in order to access their ...

SUMMARY During platyhelminth infection, a cocktail of proteins is released by the parasite to aid invasion, initiate feeding, facilitate adaptation and mediate modulation of the host immune response. Included amongst these ...

In this article, we explore the potential for leisure as a site for new forms of political participation. Using electronic dance music culture (EDMC) as an example, we locate our analysis within theories of neo-liberalism ...
