Abstract Background Phakopsora pachyrhizi is a biotrophic fungal pathogen responsible for the Asian soybean rust disease causing important yield losses in tropical and subtropical soybean-producing countries.P.pachyrhizi triggers important transcriptional changes in soybean plants during infection, with several hundreds of genes being either up- or

Abstract Autophagy is a widespread physiological process in the body, which also protects the host by degrading invading pathogens and harmful substances during pathological conditions.Nevertheless, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), the causative agent of tuberculosis, has evolved strategies to subvert autophagy by modulating microRNA (miRNA) expre

In the last ten years, there has been a stabilization of traffic fatalities on the roads of the world.At the same time, the death toll of persons in the armor of vehicles was reduced, and the death toll of persons outside the armor of vehicles-vulnerable road users continued to grow.The most endangered are motorcyclists, then pedestrians and finall

Abstract Background Root nodule symbiosis (RNS) is a fascinating evolutionary event.Given that limited genes conferring the evolution of RNS in Leguminosae have been functionally validated, the genetic basis of the evolution of RNS remains largely unknown.Identifying the genes involved in the evolution of RNS will help to reveal the mystery.Results

The current focus on renewable energy sources and the circular economy Kids hats favors the thermal conversion of low-quality fuels, such as biomass and waste.However, the main limitation of their usability in the power sector is the risk of slagging, fouling, ash deposition, and high-temperature corrosion.These problems may be avoided or significa
