Ochrobactrum chromiisoli sp. nov., Isolated from Chromium-Contaminated Soil.

A Gram-stain-negative, non-spore-forming, flagellated, motile, aerobic, rod-shaped bacteria strain, designated YY2X, was isolated from chromium-contaminated soil. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene, recA gene, and whole genome indicated that the strain represented a new member of the genus Ochrobactrum, family Brucellaceae, class Alphaproteobacteria. The phylogenetic trees based on 16 s rRNA gene, revealed that Falsochrobactrum ovis DSM26720 (96.

Association of estrogen receptor gene polymorphisms with human precocious puberty: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

This study aims to estimate the association between ESR1 polymorphisms (PvuII and XbaI) and ESR2 polymorphisms (RsaI and AluI) with precocious puberty. Relevant studies published before March 2014 were retrieved by a electronic search among nine databases. Meta-analysis of the pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) was calculated.

The effects of work-reinforcer schedules on performance and preference in students with autism.

This study investigated performance under and preference for continuous and discontinuous work-reinforcer schedules in 3 students who had been diagnosed with autism. Under continuous schedules, participants completed all work and consumed all reinforcers in contiguous units. Under discontinuous schedules, work and reinforcer access were broken up into smaller units.
