Snakebite is a significant cause of death and disability in subsistent farming populations of sub-Saharan Africa.Antivenom is the most effective treatment of envenoming and is manufactured FF SHAMPOO from IgG of venom-immunised horses/sheep but, because of complex fiscal reasons, there is a paucity of antivenom in sub-Saharan Africa.To address the
Abstract Seed size/weight plays an important role in determining crop yield, yet only few genes controlling seed size have been characterized in soybean.Here, we perform a genome-wide association study and identify a major quantitative trait locus (QTL), named GmSW17 ORG COCONUT NECTAR (Seed Width 17), on chromosome 17 that determine soybean seed w
Membrane fouling is still the bottleneck affecting the technical and economic performance of the ultrafiltration (UF) process for the surface water treatment.It is very important to accurately understand fouling mechanisms to effectively prevent and control UF fouling.The rejection performance and fouling mechanisms of the UF membrane for raw and c
In insects, a parental immune challenge can prepare and enhance offspring immune activity.Previous studies of such transgenerational immune priming (TGIP) mainly focused on a single offspring life stage.However, different developmental stages may be exposed to different risks and show different susceptibility to parental immune priming.Here we addr
