Small RNA sequencing analysis provides novel insights into microRNA-mediated regulation of defense responses in chickpea against Fusarium wilt infection.

Small RNA sequencing analysis in two chickpea genotypes, JG 62 (Fusarium wilt-susceptible) and WR 315 (Fusarium wilt-resistant), under Fusarium wilt stress led to identification of 544 miRNAs which included 406 known and 138 novel miRNAs. A total of 115 miRNAs showed differential expression in both the genotypes across different combinations. A miRNA, Car-miR398 targeted copper chaperone for superoxide dismutase (CCS) that, in turn, regulated superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity during chickpea-Foc interaction.

Synergistic effect of mulch and nitrogen management on growth and essential oil yield of Salvia sclarea L.

Balanced plant nutrition and optimal micro-climate are critical for achieving higher production sustainably. Substituting mineral fertilizers with organic amendments under water-conserving strategies like mulch can enhance the quality and yield and improve soil health. Therefore, a two-year study was conducted to examine the synergistic effects of mulch and reducing inorganic fertilizers and partially substituting organic amendments on essential oil (EO) yield and its composition, and soil properties in Salvia sclarea, an industrially important crop.

Multiorgan and Multisystem Involvement During Primary HIV Infection: A Case Report With a Literature Review.

The initial six months following HIV infection have a high viral load. Nonspecific presentations might lead to the missing primary HIV diagnosis. Multiorgan and multisystem diagnosis is a rare presentation of primary HIV.

A Comparative Analysis of Dexmedetomidine Infusion Rates on Hemodynamic Responses During Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: An Observational Study.

Background Although laparoscopic surgery is becoming more common, its anesthetic management poses challenges due to hemodynamic fluctuations. Dexmedetomidine has shown promise in mitigating these responses. In this study, we compared the effects of three different infusion doses of dexmedetomidine (0.
