This dataset explores the perception of happiness and job satisfaction among Vietnamese general school teachers and administrators (principals and vice-principles) in implementing a new curriculum. This study uses SPSS Statistics 26.0 and Exel to analyze data on the opinions of 782 general school teachers and administrators (principles and vice-principles) about satisfaction and happiness at work and influencing factors such as gender, age, experience, income, and workplace, workplaces, difficulties, sources of support when implementing new programs.

We have previously established a uridine/uracil auxotrophic mutant and a corresponding -mediated transformation (ATMT) system for genetic characterization in using as a screening marker. In this study, we constructed an ATMT system based on a dual and auxotrophic mutant of .

However, fruiting body production in is facing degeneration through cultivation batches, and the molecular mechanism of this phenomenon remains unclear. This study showed that fruiting body formation in three different strains, namely G12, B12, and HQ1, severely declined after three successive culturing generations using the spore isolation method.

Results: In this study, the wild-type P. chrysogenum VTCC 31172 strain was re-classified as P.
The filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger is widely exploited as an industrial workhorse for producing enzymes and organic acids. So far, different genetic tools, including CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing strategies, have been developed for the engineering of A. niger.

However, little is known about the potential of Vietnamese medicinal plants for antifungal activity. In this study, we examined the antagonistic activity of twelve medicinal plant species collected in Northern Vietnam against , , , and .

Our previous work has shown that Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation (ATMT) based on the uridine/uracil auxotrophic mechanism with pyrG as the selection marker is very efficient for gene transfer in A. oryzae.

The velvet domain for DNA binding and dimerization is similar to the structure of the Rel homology domain of the mammalian NF-κB transcription factor. A comprehensive study addressed the functions of all four homologs of velvet domain encoding genes in the fungal life cycle of the soil-borne plant pathogenic fungus Verticillium dahliae.

These herbicides were contaminated with 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (2,3,7,8-tetraCDD). In 2017, we sampled blood from 120 male Vietnamese military workers in the three dioxin-contaminated airbases (Bien Hoa, Da Nang, and Phu Cat) and from 20 workers at an uncontaminated airbase.

However, the energy efficiency of the EDD operation has not thoroughly been considered in published works. The aim of the current work is to optimize varied parameters for enhancing the material removal rate (MRR), saving drilled energy (ED), and decreasing the expansion of the hole (HE) for the EDD process.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFMany fungi are able to produce resting structures, which ensure survival and protect them against various stresses in their habitat such as exposure to UV light, temperature variations, drought as well as changing pH and nutrient conditions. Verticillium dahliae is a plant pathogenic fungus that forms melanized resting structures, called microsclerotia, for survival of time periods without a host. These highly stress resistant microsclerotia persist in the soil for many years and are therefore problematic for an effective treatment of the fungus.
