First report of a ' phytoplasma asteris' related strain (16SrI) associated with phyllody and witches'-broom symptom in in Hisar, India.

Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is a leguminous vegetable crop, and India holds the fourth position in the production, primarily contributed by three major states: Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, and Punjab (Anonymous, 2022). However, a survey conducted in February 2023 at the National Seed Corporation Farm (15 hectares) in Hisar, Haryana, revealed deformities in the growth of some pea plants.

Investigating Mineral Accumulation and Seed Vigor Potential in Bottle Gourd () through Crossbreeding Timing.

Bottle gourd () is a well-known cucurbit with an active functional ingredient. A two-year field experiment was carried out at the Research Farm of Seed Science and Technology, CCS HAU, Hisar, in a randomized block design during the Kharif season (Kharif is one of the two major cropping seasons in India and other South Asian countries, heavily reliant on monsoon rains with the other being Rabi) and the summer season. Five different crossing periods (CP), viz.

Development and Optimization of Label-Free Quantitative Proteomics under Different Crossing Periods of Bottle Gourd.

Bottle gourd, a common vegetable in the human diet, has been valued for its medicinal and energetic properties. In this experiment, the time-resolved analysis of the changes in the proteins' electrophoretic patterning of the seed development at different crossing periods was studied in bottle gourd using label-free quantitative proteomics. Hybrid HBGH-35 had the highest observed protein levels at the 4th week of the crossing period (F) compared to the parental lines, viz.

Functional Characterization of the Nep1-Like Protein Effectors of the Necrotrophic Pathogen - .

is an important necrotrophic pathogen that infects the family. , like other necrotrophs, also secretes various proteinaceous effectors and metabolites that cause cell death to establish itself in the host. However, there has been no systematic study of effectors and their roles in pathogenesis.

The cell biology and role of resorptive cells in diseases: A review.

Resorptive cells are responsible for the resorption of mineralized matrix of hard tissues. Bone-resorbing cells are called osteoclasts; however, they can resorb mineralized dental tissues or calcified cartilage and then they are called odontoclasts and chondroclasts, respectively. Resorptive cells form when mononuclear precursors derived from a monocyte-macrophage cell lineage are attracted to certain mineralized surfaces and subsequently fuse and adhere onto them for exerting their resorbing activity.
