Water transport across the cell membranes is regulated largely by a family of proteins known as aquaporins (AQPs).Plasma membrane intrinsic protein (PIP) is an important subfamily of plant AQPs localized Joggers on the plasma membrane.To investigate the molecular mechanism of water regulation in seed germination, seven genes encoding PIP were initi
Lower thriving among females with hearing impairment than males - a cross-sectional study of 185 primary and secondary students in Greenland
The prevalence of ear infections and hearing i mpairment among Greenlandic children is amajor public health problem, and studies investigating the association between hearing impairment and thriving among Greenlandic children are scarce.The aim of this study CONDITIONER was to examine the association between hearing impairment and thriving in asamp
The microbiome analysis of ripen grape berries supports the complex etiology of sour rot
Sour rot (SR) is a grapevine disease complex that is not completely understood in its etiology and epidemiology.Recently, SR has received special attention due to its increasing economic importance due to crop losses and reduced wine quality.In this study, the fungal and bacterial microbiota of healthy (i.e., without rot symptoms) and rotten (i.e.,
Testing for direct genetic effects using a screening step in family-based association studies
In genome wide association studies (GWAS), families based studies tend to have less power to detect genetic associations than population based studies, such as case-control studies.This can be an issue when testing if genes in a family based GWAS have a direct effect on the phenotype of interest or if the genes act indirectly through a secondary ph
Privacy Management in Social Internet of Vehicles: Review, Challenges and Blockchain Based Solutions
The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm has integrated the sensor network silos to the Internet and enabled the provision of value-added services across these networks.These smart devices are now becoming socially conscious by following the social Internet of Things (SIoT) model that empowers them to create and maintain social relationships among the
