Reconciliation of wheat 660 K and 90 K SNP arrays and their utilization in dough rheological properties of bread wheat.

J Adv Res

Agronomy College / National Key Laboratory of Wheat and Maize Crop Science, Henan Agricultural University, Zhengzhou 450046 China. Electronic address:

Introduction: High-density Wheat 660 K and 90 K SNP arrays are powerful tools for understanding the genetic basis of wheat traits. However, their inconsistantly physical positions that were caused by different versions of Chinese Spring genome during developing arrays are confused and inconvenient for further application.

Objective: With the repid development of wheat geonome sequencing, we aim to reconciliate Wheat 660 K and 90 K SNP arrays in modern cultivar and reveal the genetic basis of dough rheological properties in bread wheat.

Background And Aims: Post-stroke dysphagia is highly prevalent and causes complication. While video games have demonstrated potential to increase patient engagement in rehabilitation, their efficacy in stroke patients with dysphagia remains unclear. This aim of this study was to explore the effectiveness of the artificial intelligence-based video-game (AI-VG) intervention in improving swallowing function among stroke patients with dysphagia.

Orthopaedics Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University, Yinchuan, Ningxia Hui 750004, China; Key Laboratory of Ningxia Ethnomedicine Modernization, Ministry of Education, Ningxia Medical University, Yinchuan, Ningxia Hui 750004, China. Electronic address:

Population exposure to plastics is increasing, and plasticizers are frequently detected in humans as important ingredients of plastic products. However, patterns of exposure to harmful ingredients of plastics and their effects on neurofilament light chain (NFL), a marker of active brain pathology, are currently inconclusive. Herein, we employed a range of statistical methods to thoroughly investigate the impact of 24 plastic hazardous ingredients and their varying exposure patterns on NFL concentrations in the blood of the general population in 533 participants.

Objective: To gain a more holistic understanding of oral health in the past by producing an 'Index of Oro-dental Disease' (IOD), incorporating multiple oro-dental diseases and accounting for differences in antemortem/postmortem alveolar bone and tooth loss.

Materials: UK Adult Dental Health Survey, 2009 anonymised dataset (N = 6206). Archaeological dental data from skeletal individuals from medieval and post-medieval Barton-upon-Humber, North Lincolnshire (N = 214, 1150-1855) and St James's Gardens Burial Ground, London (N = 281, 1789-1853).

Assessment of watershed health, integrating environmental, social, and climate change criteria into a fuzzy logic framework.

Spatio-temporal analyses of environmental and social criteria in the context of climate change, facilitate understanding of how historical and current conditions have influenced watershed health. Previous studies have analyzed watershed health, but very few have integrated fuzzy logic with the CRITIC method (Criteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation), which enables us to explore alternatives to improve watershed performance. The objective of this study was to evaluate changes in watershed health through historical and projected climate change scenario in the tropical Santa Cruz watershed in Aquismón, S.
