Seed pretreatment with cloquintocet-mexyl protects wheat seedlings from fomesafen injury by promoting photosynthesis and decreasing oxidative stress.

Background: Fomesafen is a selective herbicide widely used to control post-emergent broad-leaf weeds in soybean and peanut fields. Because of its persistent nature in soil, it can suppress subsequent crops, including wheat. There is limited information focusing on methods of protecting wheat from fomesafen injury by soil residue.

Dichlormid protect wheat from fomesafen residual injury by increasing PPO expression and the photosynthesis characterize.

Fomesafen is a herbicide with long persistence in soil, causing damage to succeeding crops. Dichlormid is a widely used safener protecting maize from chloroacetanilide and thiocarbamate injury. We found that dichlormid treatment could restore the growth of wheat seedlings exposed to fomesafen stress.

Prenatal Diagnosis of ACTG2 Visceral Myopathy Presented With Fetal Megacystis Identified in the Second Trimester.

Variants of the ACTG2 gene cause autosomal dominant ACTG2 visceral myopathy, a disorder of smooth muscle dysfunction of the bladder and gastrointestinal system. Bladder involvement can behave as fetal megacystis (FM). We report four prenatal cases of ACTG2 visceral myopathy.

Challenges with Literature-Derived Data in Machine Learning for Yield Prediction: A Case Study on Pd-Catalyzed Carbonylation Reactions.

The application of machine learning (ML) to predict reaction yields has shown remarkable accuracy when based on high-throughput computational and experimental data. However, the accuracy significantly diminishes when leveraging literature-derived data, highlighting a gap in the predictive capability of the current ML models. This study, focusing on Pd-catalyzed carbonylation reactions, reveals that even with a data set of 2512 reactions, the best-performing model reaches only an of 0.

Exome Sequencing in Fetuses With Bilateral Renal Agenesis Identified on Second Trimester Ultrasound: A Single Referral Center Experience.

Objective: To determine the exome sequencing results in fetuses with bilateral renal agenesis (BRA).

Methods: This was a retrospective study of 14 cases with BRA diagnosed on second trimester anatomy ultrasound. All cases underwent invasive prenatal diagnosis.

Prenatal genetic investigation in pregnancies with oligohydramnios: Results from a single referral medical center.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the value of genetic testing using exome sequencing (ES) in oligohydramnios pregnancies with or without other structural abnormalities.

Materials And Methods: A total of 110 singleton pregnancies complicated by oligohydramnios were enrolled, including 52 of isolated oligohydramnios and 58 of non-isolated oligohydramnios. All fetal samples were first tested by quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) and followed by chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA).

Current Research Status, Opportunities, and Future Challenges of Nine Representative Persistent Herbicides.

Pesticides are extensively utilized in contemporary agriculture to manage pests, enhance crop yields, and sustain productivity. Nevertheless, the persistent herbicide represents a dual-edged weapon. On one hand, their prolonged efficacy enables reduced application frequency during crop growth seasons, resulting in cost savings on labor.

Prenatal diagnosis of the recurrent 1q21.1 microdeletions in fetuses with ultrasound anomalies and review of the literature.

Objective: The recurrent 1q21.1 microdeletion syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder and is characterized by dysmorphic facial features, microcephaly, developmental delay, and congenital defects. However, most studies on the distal deletions in the 1q21.

The low-lethal concentrations of rotenone and pyrethrins suppress the population growth of Rhopalosiphum padi.

As an important pest on winter wheat, Rhopalosiphum padi (L.) causes damage to the wheat yield by sucking plant nutrients, transmitting plant viruses and producing mildew. R.

Identification of a Novel 16.8Kb Deletion of the α-Globin Gene Cluster by Third-Generation Sequencing.

α-thalassemia major (α-TM) often causes Hb Bart's (c4) hydrops fetalis and severe obstetric complications in the mother. Step-wise screening for couples at risk of having offspring(s) affected by α-TM is the efficient prevention method but some rare genotypes of thalassemia cannot be detected. A 32-year-old male with low HbA2 (2.

Phenotypic and genotypic analysis of 11 fetal cases with Bardet-Biedl syndrome.

Objective: To present the prenatal sonographic features and genomic spectrum of pregnancies with fetal Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS).

Methods: This was a retrospective study of 11 cases with BBS diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound and confirmed by genetic testing. Clinical and laboratory data were collected and reviewed for these cases, including maternal demographics, prenatal sonographic findings, molecular testing sequencing results, and pregnancy outcomes.

A novel MED12 pathogenic variant in a female fetus with facial cleft and cardiac defects identified in the first trimester.

Trio exome sequencing was performed on a female fetus with an increased nuchal translucency, along with nasal bone hypoplasia, suspected cleft palate and abnormal outflow tract of the heart. A de novo heterozygous variant c.5500_5507del, p.

SlCarE054 in (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) showed direct metabolic activity to -cypermethrin with stereoselectivity.

Carboxylesterases (CarEs) is an important detoxification enzyme system in phase Ⅰ participating in insecticides resistance. In our previous study, a CarEs gene from lepidoptera class, was screened out to be upregulated in a pyrethroids and organophosphates resistant population. Its overexpression was verified in two field-collected populations of (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) resistant to pyrethroids and organophosphates by qRT-PCR.
