Assessment of Smartphone Medical Applications as a Self-Directed Learning Tool for Medical Students and Compulsory Rotatory Residential Internship-A KAP Survey.

Objectives: Smartphones have become a powerful instrument in academic life for medical professions worldwide. Global lockdown due to COVID-19 pandemic culminated in the closure of educational institutions and resulted in shifting to online teaching. In our newly implemented competency-based medical education curriculum (CBME) for medical graduates, self-directed learning (SDL) is one of the teachings-learning methods.

assembly and annotation of L. seed transcriptome identifies key genes in the biosynthesis of bonducellin, a homoisoflavonoid.

L. is a traditional medicinal plant containing a potential homoisoflavonoid, bonducellin, with therapeutic values against polycystic ovary syndrome, oxidative damage, pathogenic bacteria, irregular menstrual cycle, ovarian cancer and diabetes. Owing to the multi-therapeutic properties of bonducellin, knowledge of its biosynthetic pathway genes will help understand its regulatory mechanism and thus improve the yield.
