The intensity and frequency of precipitation events are predicted to change over the coming decades. For many areas, longer periods without rainfall are expected. We investigated the importance of irrigation frequency under water deficit conditions for growth, physiology and chemistry of wheat (<...

INTRODUCTION: Myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) is the most common cardiac condition in adult dogs. The disease progresses over several years and affected dogs may develop congestive heart failure (HF). Research has shown that myocardial metabolism is altered in cardiac dise...

Flavonoids are specialized metabolites that play important roles in plants, including interactions with the environment. The high structural diversity of this metabolite group is largely due to enzyme-mediated modifications of flavonoid core skeletons. In particular, glycosylation with different ...

BACKGROUND: There is a critical need for rapid viral infection diagnostics to enable prompt case identification in pandemic settings and support targeted antimicrobial prescribing.

METHODS: Using untargeted high-resolution liquid chromatography coupled with...

Gregarines are usually classified as parasites, but recent studies suggest that they should be viewed on a parasitism-mutualism spectrum and may even be seen as part of the gut microbiota of host insects. As such, they may also impact the consumption of their hosts and/or be involved in the diges...
