Genetic Diversity for Effective Resistance in Wheat Landraces from Ethiopia and Eritrea to Fungal Diseases and Toxic Aluminum Ions.

To reveal genetic diversity for effective resistance to five foliar diseases and toxic aluminum ions, the entire collection of wheat species from the N.I. Vavilov All-Russian Institute of Plant Genetic Resources (VIR) originating from Ethiopia and Eritrea were studied regarding their traits.

Kv2.1 Channels Prevent Vasomotion and Safeguard Myogenic Reactivity in Rat Small Superior Cerebellar Arteries.

Vascular smooth muscle voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels have been proposed to contribute to myogenic autoregulation. Surprisingly, in initial experiments, we observed that the Kv2 channel inhibitor stromatoxin induced vasomotion without affecting myogenic tone. Thus, we tested the hypothesis that Kv2 channels contribute to myogenic autoregulation by fine-tuning the myogenic response.

Effective Resistance to Four Fungal Foliar Diseases in Samples of Wild L. Species from the VIR (N.I. Vavilov All-Russian Institute of Plant Genetic Resources) Collection: View from Vavilov's Concepts of Plant Immunity.

To identify new sources of effective resistance to four foliar diseases of wheat, 173 accessions of four wheat species, Triticum boeoticum, T. urartu, T. araraticum, and T.

General cardiovascular risk and functional indicators of the permanent atrial fibrillation.

Objective: Introduction: No doubt today that atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with an increased risk of thromboembolic events. Simultaneously we did not find any investigation about the links between general cardiovascular risk (GCVR) and the frequency forms and functional parameters of the heart in patients with AF. The aim: To study the frequency forms and functional indices of the heart in patients with permanent AF in GCVR groups.
