Gene therapy holds a great potential for treating and correcting inherited as
well as acquired diseases that rely on the transfer of nucleic acids-based
materials into mammalian cells. A plethora of vector systems, based on
biological (viral), physical and chemical (non-viral) methods, have been
developed for the efficient delivery of these biopharmaceuticals, however, these
have encountered sever... hiện toàn bộ
Efficacy of Silicon Formulations on Sugarcane Stalk Borers, Quality Characteristics and Parasitism Rate on Five Commercial VarietiesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, India Section B: Biological Sciences - Tập 87 - Trang 289-297 - 2015
Amin Nikpay, Ebrahim Soleyman Nejadian, Shila Goldasteh, Hossein Farazmand
Sugarcane is an important cash crop in Iran and it is exclusively cultivated in
more than one hundred hectares of Khuzestan province. One proven and
ecologically sound best management practice in sugarcane is application of
silicon to mitigate for both biotic and abiotic stresses. It has been proved
that silicon can enhance resistance of sugarcane against stalk borers. Also, new
hypothesis suggest... hiện toàn bộ
Integration of Modern Molecular Tools with Geological Processes to Reveal Species Phylogeny, Biogeographical Niche Prediction, and Bio-EvolutionProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, India Section B: Biological Sciences - Tập 93 - Trang 119-125 - 2022
Maneesh S. Bhandari, Marco Antonio Caçador Martins-Ferreira, Arzoo Shamoon, Shailesh Pandey, Rajendra K. Meena
Nature is integrated, being simultaneously controlled by different natural
aspects. Genetics, bioinformatics, biostatistics and geology are four diverse
and broad scientific disciplines. But we believe that these can offer important
insights into species distribution and evolution, if integrated. This
perspective is grounded on a case study of the family Salvadoraceae, where
species distribution a... hiện toàn bộ
Antiproliferative, Antioxidant and Hepatoprotective Activities of Clematis gouriana Roxb. ExtractsProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, India Section B: Biological Sciences - Tập 89 - Trang 921-929 - 2018
H. Raja Naika, S. Bhavana, K. Lingaraju, Jaime A. Teixeira da Silva, V. Krishna
Clematis gouriana Roxb ex DC. (Ranunculaceae) is a large vine capable of
climbing tall trees. In the Indian system of medicine ‘Ayurveda’, the plant is
used to eliminate malarial fever and headaches. The root and stem paste are
applied externally to treat psoriasis, itches, and skin allergies. Diverse
biological properties of Clematis species are due to many secondary metabolites
found in differen... hiện toàn bộ
A Study on Detection of Pathogenic Listeria monocytogenes in Ovine’s of Kashmir Region Having Abortion or History of AbortionProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, India Section B: Biological Sciences - Tập 84 - Trang 311-316 - 2013
Shabu Shoukat, S. V. S. Malik, D. B. Rawool, Ashok Kumar, Satish Kumar, Sameer Shrivastava, S. B. Barbuddhe, Durga Prasad Das, Sameer Das
The present investigation delineates the role of listeric infection in aborted
ewes or those with history of abortion from organized farms of Kashmir region. A
total of 141 clinical samples was analyzed for the isolation and identification
of Listeria species. On analysis four isolates were identified as Listeria
monocytogenes, while 24 were non-pathogenic Listeria species. Of the four L.

Antibiotic resistance remains one of the global challenges that needs urgent
attention, including finding alternative treatment options to conventional
antibiotics and reversing resistance. Pinus sylvestris L. (Pinaceae) essential
oil (EO) has several biological properties. In this study, the EO of P.
sylvestris was extracted by hydro-distillation method, and twenty-six chemical
constituents of th... hiện toàn bộ
Cycloheximide Efficacy Varies Temporally in Improving Postharvest Performance of Cool Wet Stored Dianthus chinensis L. Cut SpraysProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, India Section B: Biological Sciences - Tập 87 - Trang 253-259 - 2015
Riyaz Ahmad Dar, Inayatullah Tahir, Syed Sabhi Ahmad
An experiment was designed to determine the synergistic effect of cold
temperature and cycloheximide (CHI) on the postharvest performance of cut sprays
of Dianthus chinensis. Sprays were harvested at 800 h with the oldest bud at
paint brush stage, cut to a length of 27 cm and wet stored at 5 °C for 72 h
before or after 1 h 0.1 mM CHI pulse. Another set of sprays was pulsed with
0.1 mM CHI for 1 h ... hiện toàn bộ
Influence of Soil and Plant Types on Diversity of RhizobacteriaProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, India Section B: Biological Sciences - Tập 82 - Trang 341-352 - 2012
R. Dey, K. K. Pal, K. V. B. R. Tilak
Biodiversity is an important ingredient of environmental conservation and is
central to agriculture production. Most microbial diversity of the soil
ecosystem is confined to the rhizosphere. Rhizodeposition through plant root
exudates plays a major role in defining resident microflora, which differs from
that in bulk soil. Rhizobacterial diversity is influenced by both plant and soil
type. Soil fa... hiện toàn bộ
