Evolution of multiple target-site resistance mechanisms in individual plants of glyphosate-resistant Eleusine indica from China.

Background: Glyphosate has been used for weed control in South China in various situations for four decades, and most Eleusine indica populations are suspected to have evolved resistance to glyphosate. This research investigated underling target-site glyphosate resistance mechanisms in six field-collected, putative glyphosate-resistant (R) E. indica populations.

Integrated miRNA-mRNA network revealing the key molecular characteristics of ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament.

Background: Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) refers to an ectopic ossification disease originating from the posterior longitudinal ligament of the spine. Pressing on the spinal cord or nerve roots can cause limb sensory and motor disorders, significantly reducing the patient's quality of life. At present, the pathogenesis of OPLL is still unclear.
