Abstract Cyclamen is commercially cultivated to produce the pot and garden flowering plants by sowing the seeds, and the number of leaves is an important trait for the beginning of the initiations of flower buds and flowering. The yield potential is affected by the life cycle of a plant and the plant breeders can have good decisions making with the...

Epidemic forecasting provides an opportunity to predict geographic disease spread and counts when an outbreak occurs and plays a key role in preventing or controlling their adverse impact. However, conventional prediction models based on complex mathematical modelling rely on the estimation of model parameters, which yields unreliable and unsustain...

Phytogenic herbal extracts received considerable attention in the broilers industry as friendly alternative substitutes to antibiotics. These additives can be included in the food or drinking water to enhance birds' growth rate and well-being. Hence, the current investigation examined the effect of including Aloe vera gel in drinking water on the g...

The symbiosis between cnidarian hosts and photosynthetic dinoflagellates of the family Symbiodiniaceae (i.e., zooxanthellae) provides the energy foundation of coral reef ecosystems in oligotrophic waters. The structure of symbiont biota and the dominant species of algal symbiont partly shape the environmental adaptability of coral symbiotes. In thi...

Although successful performance in basketball requires high levels of muscular strength during adolescence, its development is confounded by the effects of normal growth. We examine the timing, intensity and sequence of muscular strength according to biological age (years from peak height velocity (PHV)) and hypothesize that young basketball player...

The present study aimed at evaluating the influences of pomegranate peel meal on the growth performance, hematology, and blood biochemistry of rainbow trout. Fish were fed 5 varying levels of pomegranate peel meal (0%, 1%, 2 %, 3%, and 4%) for 60 days. The obtained results showed that weight gain was significantly higher in fish fed at the rate of ...

Nitrogen is a most important nutrient resource for Escherichia coli and other bacteria that harbor the glnKamtB operon, a high-affinity ammonium uptake system highly interconnected with cellular metabolism. Although this system confers an advantage to bacteria when growing under nitrogen-limiting conditions, little is known about the impact of thes...

Lineages within the species Limosilactobacillus reuteri have specialized to various hosts and their genomes reflect these adaptations. The pdu-cbi-cob-hem gene cluster is conserved in most human and poultry isolates but is infrequent in rodent and porcine isolates. This gene cluster confers the transformation of glycerol into 3-hydroxy-propionaldeh...

This thesis is about a little molecule called guanosine tetraphosphate. ppGpp. Consider it the bacterial brain, at the core of the coordination and regulation of bacterial growth. For over half a century, it has haunted microbiologists as it appears involved in every aspect of microbial physiology, yet incredibly difficult to study due to its fast ...
