AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Background: Gene amplification has been shown to provide resistance to glyphosate in several weed species, including Hordeum glaucum populations in South Australia. The stability of 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) gene copies in resistant populations in the presence or absence of glyphosate selection has not been determined.
Results: Applying glyphosate to a cloned plant resulted in an increase in resistance and EPSPS copy number in the progeny of that plant compared to the untreated clone. The LD (herbicide concentration required for 50% mortality) increased by 75% to 79% in the progeny of the treated clones compared to the untreated in both populations (YP-17 and YP-16). EPSPS copy number estimates were higher in treated individuals compared to untreated individuals with an average of seven copies compared to six in YP-16 and 11 compared to six in YP-17. There was a positive correlation (R = 0.78) between EPSPS copy number and LD of all populations.
Conclusion: EPSPS gene copy number and resistance to glyphosate increased in H. glaucum populations under glyphosate selection, suggesting the number of EPSPS gene copies present is dependent on glyphosate selection. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

In this article, we present a case study of a five-year-old girl with autism and developmental delay, conducted at the Academic Center for Autism Research in Bratislava, Slovakia. The girl was diagnosed using Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule-Second Edition (ADOS-2) and Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) instruments and met the criteria for autism spectrum disorder. Intellectual functioning was in the markedly below-average range, as indicated by the Snijders-Oomen Nonverbal Intelligence Test-Revised (SON-R) examination, and her level of adaptive functioning was significantly reduced.

Background: Cognitive frailty (), characterized by the coexistence of physical frailty and cognitive impairment, is linked to increased morbidity and mortality in older adults. While has been linked to multiple physiological and lifestyle factors, the underlying biological mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study investigated the risk factors for and explored the relationship between mitochondrial function and in hospitalized patients.

Background: Prescription auditing is a crucial tool for evaluating a range of concerns, including injectable usage, polypharmacy, the use of generic names, and the quality of treatment given to patients in primary care facilities. The objective of the study was to assess, using WHO core drug use indicators, the drug use patterns of general outpatients (OPD) at a rural healthcare facility.
Materials And Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in a rural peripheral health centre in Puducherry for a period of one year from September 2019 to August 2020.

The probiotic strain Nissle 1917 (EcN) with high biocompatibility and susceptibility to genetic modification is often applied in bacterial therapies for cancer. However, most studies have used plasmids as vectors to construct engineering strains from EcN. Plasmid-based expression systems suffer from genetic instability, and they need antibiotic selective pressure to maintain high copy number.
