Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the increased expression levels of EGFR and HER2 receptors in various cancers, contributing to cancer cell growth and spread.
- Utilizing RNAseq and other data from sources like The Cancer Genome Atlas, the research identifies changes in expression and explores the effects of the drug lapatinib on these receptors.
- Results indicate significant overexpression of HER2 and EGFR in several cancers, and lapatinib shows promise in reducing related gene expression linked to cell proliferation, highlighting several hub genes associated with its therapeutic effects.
The use of wild plant species or their halophytic relatives has been considered in plant breeding programs to improve salt and drought tolerance in crop plants. serves as halophyte model for identification and isolation of novel stress adaptation genes. perennial monocot grass, grows in damp or arid areas, often salt-impregnated places and wasteland in cultivated areas, can survive periodically high water salinity, and tolerate high salt concentrations in the soil up to 1,100 mM sodium chloride.

This study was conducted to identify and validate molecular markers linked to important breeding traits by association mapping. The association was evaluated between 81 molecular markers (STS, SSR, Indel, CAPS, and PCR-based SNP) and 15 morphological traits in a global panel of 100 rice (Oryza sativa) accessions.
