Protocol for obtaining doubled haploids in isolated microspore culture for poorly responsive genotypes of brassicaceae family.

In this protocol for obtaining doubled haploids plants (DH), we propose a new method for microspore isolation. This method is useful for genotypes of the Brassicaceae family with low responsiveness to DH technology. For such crops, it allows increasing the embryo yield several times and sometimes obtaining embryos for the first time.

Identification and Pathogenicity of Species Associated with Onion Basal Rot in the Moscow Region of Russian Federation.

Fusarium basal rot of onions causes large losses during storage of commercial production of onion bulbs, which in turn adversely affects the food market situation in the off-season period. There are no data on the composition of spp., which causes onion basal rot in the Russian Federation.

Embryogenesis of European Radish ( L. subsp. Convar. Radicula) in Culture of Isolated Microspores In Vitro.

The European radish is one of the most unresponsive crops in the family to embryogenesis in microspore culture. The aim of this work was to study the process of embryogenesis of European radish and its biological features. In this study, the embryogenesis of European radish is described in detail with illustrative data for the first time.

Protocol of European Radish (Raphanus sativus L.) Microspore Culture for Doubled Haploid Plant Production.

Here, we describe the first protocol of European radish (Raphanus sativus L. subsp. sativus convar.

Brassica rapa L. ssp. chinensis Isolated Microspore Culture Protocol.

Culture of isolated microspores is a widely used method to obtain haploid and doubled haploid plants for many crop species. This protocol describes the steps necessary to obtain a large number of microspore derived embryos for pakchoi (Brassica rapa L. ssp.

Dynamics of factor XIII levels after open heart surgery for congenital heart defects: do cyanotic and acyanotic patients differ?

Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) reduces coagulation factor levels through hemodilution and consumption. Differences in CPB-induced alterations of factor XIII (FXIII) levels in children with cyanotic and acyanotic congenital heart defects (CHDs) are not well characterized. FXIII activity (determined by Berichrom assay), prothrombin index, activated partial thromboplastin time, and fibrinogen were measured before open heart surgery with CPB and 5 days postoperatively for children older than 3 years with acyanotic (n = 30) and cyanotic (n = 30) CHDs.
