A family is presented in which three of four siblings had truncus arteriosus and other anomalies compatible with the third and fourth pharyngeal pouch syndrome (DiGeorge syndrome). The syndrome is uncommon and most of the reported cases have been solitary. In this family an autosomal recessive inheritance is possible.

The hypothalamus is a master regulator of energy balance in the body. First-order hypothalamic neurons localized in the arcuate nucleus sense systemic signals that indicate the energy stores in the body. Through distinct projections, arcuate nucleus neurons communicate with second-order neurons, which are mostly localized in the paraventricular nucleus and in the lateral hypothalamus.

Background: The high-frequency induction rate of haploid is crucial for double haploid (DH) breeding. The combination of multiple haploid-induced genes, such as ZmPLA1/MATL/NLD and ZmDMP, can synergistically enhance the haploid induction rate (HIR) in maize. However, the potential synergistic effects between OsMATL and OsDMP genes in rice remain unclear.
