Background Aedes aegypti, the 'yellow fever mosquito', is the primary vector to humans of
dengue and yellow fever flaviviruses (DENV, YFV), and is a known vector of the …

Background Several techniques are available to study gene function, but many are less than
ideal for soybean. Reverse genetics, a relatively new approach, can be utilized to identify …

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) etiologically occurs as a radiation-induced or sporadic
malignancy. Genetic factors contributing to the susceptibility to either form remain unknown …

Background Aedes aegypti, the “yellow fever mosquito”, is the primary vector to humans of
the four serotypes of dengue viruses (DENV1-4) and yellow fever virus (YFV) and is a known …

Millions of people are daily exposed to high levels of noise. Consequently, noise‐induced
hearing loss (NIHL) is one of the most important occupational health hazards worldwide. In …

A robust, rapid and flexible real-time PCR assay for hierarchical genetic typing of clinical
and environmental isolates of Francisella is presented. Typing markers were found by …

Objective To investigate the genetic association between transforming growth factor β1
(TGFB1) gene polymorphisms and high myopia in a Chinese population. Methods Six …

Mutations associated with pyrethroid resistance were found in Mexican strains of
Rhipicephalus microplus (Canestrini). A mutation in the sodium channel gene was reported …

Abstract Background The oomycete Aphanomyces astaci is regarded as the causative agent
of crayfish plague and represents an evident hazard for European crayfish species. Native …

The value of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is determined in part by functionality of major
seed components, extractable oil and high protein meal. Soybean meal is an important …
