Morpho-cultural and molecular variability of causing Stemphylium leaf blight in tropical onions.

The cultural, morphological, and molecular variations among 22 isolates of (Wallr.) E. Simmons, collected from different locations, was carried out.

Transition metal-free efficient synthesis of bis(indolyl)propynes (BIPs).

A transition metal-free approach has been devised for the synthesis of a variety of bis(indolyl)propyne (BIP) derivatives. The strategy involves an iodine-catalyzed cascade condensation of α,β-unsaturated acetylenic aldehydes with diversely substituted indoles. The strategy was applicable to gram scale synthesis and a library of 50 molecules, which were afforded in good to excellent yields (up to 96%), was developed.

Anterior Open Bite Treated With Palatal Crib and Myofunctional Therapy: A Case Report.

The most prevalent oral habit and one of the most often habitual behavioral patterns in preschool-aged children is thumb-sucking. This behavior is crucial to the development of malocclusion and must be addressed carefully since it may cause a secondary tongue thrust that worsens the issue. Developing an effective treatment plan requires determining the underlying cause, which may include psychological, physiological, and or anatomical factors.

Unraveling the enigma of root-knot nematodes: from origins to advanced management strategies in agriculture.

Integrated management strategies, including novel nematicides and resilient cultivars, offer sustainable solutions to combat root-knot nematodes, crucial for safeguarding global agriculture against persistent threats. Root-knot nematodes (RKN) pose a significant threat to a diverse range of host plants, with their obligatory endoparasitic nature leading to substantial agricultural losses. RKN spend much of their lives inside or in contact by secreting plant cell wall-modifying enzymes resulting in the giant cell development for establishing host-parasite relationships.

Psychological Distress During COVID-19 Pandemic in School-age Children of Health Care Professionals.

Background: COVID-19 pandemic had a profound impact on the psychosocial well-being of societies across nations.

Methods: This prospective interventional study assessed the psychological distress in children, aged 6-19 years, whose parents were health care professionals. Parents were interviewed with a set of questionnaires based on signs of psychological distress given in the UNICEF and Childline's manual "Psychosocial Support for Children during COVID-19".
