Constitutive Defense Mechanisms Have a Major Role in the Resistance of Woodland Strawberry Leaves Against .

The necrotrophic fungus is a major threat to strawberry cultivation worldwide. By screening different genotypes for susceptibility to , we identified two genotypes with different resistance levels, a susceptible genotype ssp. Tenno 3 (T3) and a moderately resistant genotype ssp.

Human embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells maintain phenotype but alter their metabolism after exposure to ROCK inhibitor.

Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are adhesion-dependent cells that require cultivation in colonies to maintain growth and pluripotency. Robust differentiation protocols necessitate single cell cultures that are achieved by use of ROCK (Rho kinase) inhibitors. ROCK inhibition enables maintenance of stem cell phenotype; its effects on metabolism are unknown.
