Mitigation of Salinity Stress in Plants by Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis: Current Understanding and New Challenges

Modern agriculture is facing twin challenge of ensuring global food security and executing it in a sustainable manner.However, the rapidly expanding salinity stress in cultivable areas poses a major peril to crop yield.Among various biotechnological techniques being used to reduce the negative effects of salinity, the use of arbuscular mycorrhizal

Sclerostin is involved in osteogenic transdifferentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells in chronic kidney disease-associated vascular calcification with non-canonical Wnt signaling

Vascular calcification is prominent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is a strong predictor of cardiovascular mortality in the CKD population.However, the mechanism underlying CKD-associated vascular calcification remains unclear.To identify potential therapeutic targets, a 5/6 nephrectomy rat model was established by Event feeding

Delay-Driven Routing for Low-Duty-Cycle Sensor Networks

Duty-cycled operation has been introduced as an efficient way to preserve nodes energy and prolong network lifetime for wireless sensor networks.However, such networks are often logically disconnected since there is a limited number of active nodes within a period of time.Traditional routing algorithms, which Energy Support have been designed for a
