Most temperate species require prolonged exposure to winter chilling temperatures to flower in the spring.In the Brassicaceae, the MADS box transcription factor FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) is a major regulator of flowering in response to prolonged cold exposure, a process called vernalization.Winter annual Arabidopsis thaliana accessions initiate flowe
Classically, estuarine planktonic research has focussed largely on the physico-chemical drivers of community assemblages leaving a paucity of information on important biological interactions.Within the context of trophic cascades, various treatments using in situ mesocosms were established in a closed estuary to highlight the importance of predatio
Plant bio-stimulants play a significant role in triggering growth and boosting economic yield of crops.Even so, little information is found on the use of moringa leaf extract (MLE) as a natural bio-stimulant to improve growth and yield of vegetable crops in Bangladesh.Therefore, a field study was conducted at Suspension Support Cup the Soil Science
Abstract Background Many western countries have policies of dispersal and direct provision accommodation (state-funded accommodation in an institutional centre) for asylum seekers.Most research focuses on its effect on the asylum seeking population.Little is known about the impact of direct provision accommodation on organisation and delivery of lo
The therapeutic and differentiation potential of human mesenchymal stems cells (hMSCs) makes these cells a promising candidate for cellular therapies and tissue engineering.On the path Cereal Bars of a successful medical application of hMSC, the cultivation of cells in a three-dimensional (3D) environment was a landmark for the transition from simp
