Sugarcane is an important crop in tropical areas of the world, often being uncovered to environments with high salinity, but little is recognized of genetic variant in salt tolerance. The purpose of this work was once to examine the performance of two genetically various cultivars of sugarcane underneath specific concentrations of salinity (0, 40, eighty and a hundred and sixty mM NaCl) over a period of 30 days. SP 81–3250 was extra salt-tolerant and maintained its charge of biomass production, photosynthesis and leaf place up to one hundred sixty mM NaCl, whereas IAC 87–3396 was a sensitive to 80 mM NaCl. SP 81–3250 maintained very low concentrations of Na+ in both leaves and roots with increasing time and salinity, whereas in IAC 87–3396 the Na+ concentrations had been 2–5 instances higher. This suggests that the tolerance of SP 81–3250 to excessive salinity was due to its ability to leave out Na+ whilst taking up water from the soil, and that measurements of Na+ awareness in leaves should be used to pick out salt-tolerant genotypes for saline areas.","PeriodicalId":219036,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Biotechnology & Bioinformatics Research","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131472860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gene editing and clinical applications comprises of systematically assessing, monitoring, and reviewing manufacturing processes and subsequently monitoring measures to control output risks. Quality risk management (QRM) principles have been described in various FDA’s regulatory guidances for several aspects of good manufacturing practices (GMPs) such as several stages of process validation and verification in the drug product lifecycle including critical quality attributes (CQA’s) and monitoring critical process parameters (CPPs). A CPP is defined as a process parameter whose variability has an impact on a CQA and, therefore, should be monitored or controlled to ensure that manufacturing process produces end product of the desired quality. FDA’s mission is to facilitate the premarket review and evaluation of new genomic products for clinical use. The FDA guidances emphasize quality management approach to design of studies by providing oversight and objective review based on risk-benefit analysis and guides the use of new medical products by providing patients organized data and appropriate labeling information in support of the new product’s intended clinical use [1-3].","PeriodicalId":219036,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Biotechnology & Bioinformatics Research","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127267230","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As soon as the aura changes its color, we need to start trials to restore the health. All processes in the body are ruled and regulated by a Quantum Computer in the Subconscious, which operates with the waves of the weak informational NEMF seen as aura and called Spirit. If so, we need to try to access the weak informational NEMF informationally (with prayer or meditation with affirmation) and ask for correction of the distortions in the aura (Spirit), which if not corrected would lead to a disease of the physical body at later time. EEG measurements of Russian scientists showed that during meditation and prayer the Conscious is not active. Since hypnotists put the conscious to sleep to access the Subconscious, obviously prayer and meditation with affirmation act as self-hypnosis and are ways to access the Subconscious and the Quantum Computer in it. Since the Quantum Computer operates with the waves of our weak informational NEMF (Spirit), by accessing it informationally (with prayer or meditation with affirmation), we can do informational healing.

Thirty-two (32) male adult Wistar rats weighed 200-250 grams were procured and divided into four groups comprised of control and three treatment groups for the study. The control received an equivalent bodyweight of normal saline, while the treatment groups received 200, 400 and 800 mg/kgbwt of hyoscyamine fraction for three weeks respectively.

Although other factors such as body weight and time have been evaluated, microbial activity should be considered as another major component in the decomposition process. This study was designed to investigate the microbiome and potential bacterial succession using two different DNA extraction methods, classic microbiologic techniques and 16S ribosomal sequencing at the onset and end of decomposition. Differences were observed between the bacterial phyla found on Day 1 versus Day 6. Among the various phyla, several different bacterial species were observed such as Kurthia gibsonii, K. sibirica, Staphylococcus sciuri, S. lentus, and Serratia marcescens. An interesting change in the phyla present was observed for Day 6. None of the bacterial samples collected on any of the anatomical sites were identified in the phylum Firmicutes. In fact, most of the bacteria collected from the mouth, nose, and genitals were identified in the phyla Actinobacteria and Proteobacteria. Two different bacterial species, Myroides odoratus and Leucobacter aridicollis were present in the two phyla at Day 6 that were not observed at the onset of decomposition.

Heterosporangia produce thousands of alete, monolete and trilete microspores and a few dozen megaspores. This trait is inherent within the genome of I pantii because plants collected from a location in South Gujarat also exhibit this feature. Additionally, initial collections and followup studies since 1966 have been consistently showing two types of megaspores within the heterosporangia. While microspores and megaspores develop in each and every hetrosporangium, additional unusual megaspores, variable in shape and size (180-220 micron), do not occur in all heterosporangia of all plants. These spores closely resembling fossil ancestral spores are being now termed as “Chalonospores”. Thus, a living spore genus Chalonospora is being named and defined as a spore discovered in a living plant which recall fossil ancestry of the genus but are never found in any other extant species of the genus. Since Chalanospores also originate from spore mother cells, as other microspores and megaspores do, this indicates that spore mother cells found in heterosporangia are genetically variable in expressions. Quite likely, a few megaspore mother cells must be possessing gene combinations with “revitalized relic DNA sequences”. As different types of chalonospres have been observed, variable gene combinations must be representing sporadic expressions of different lycopods of the vast geological past. Germination studies prove that these spores are endowed with different genetic make-up, as the gametophyte produced on soil culture produce unique single cell rhizoids with spiny outer layer. This apparent genomic reshuffle is related with frequently encountered chromosome breaks, translocations and irregular presence of 2n=36 –to 39 chromosomes in such plants. However, Isoetes pantii plants possess 2n=48 chromosomes with X-Y mechanism. No other species in the world flora of the genus has exhibited sex chromosomal mechanism and possessed n=12 chromosome series. With greater probability this appears plausible to imagine that naturally imposed chromosomal aberrations have rejuvenated genes which might have been regular expressions within the genome of some of the lycopods of Carboniferous and thereafter","PeriodicalId":219036,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Biotechnology & Bioinformatics Research","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125964047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
