    Abstract: Sixteen Field Pea varieties (8 of them farmers’ varieties and 8 of them improved varieties) were tested to compare yield performance and morpho-agronomic characters among the traits on the seed yield. The genotypes were grown in Randomized complete block design at Goro and Agarfa community seed bank in 2017/18. Analysis of variance revealed that th... Show More

    Abstract: The Miller-Dieker syndrome (MDS) is a severe neurological disorder characterized by lissencephaly, facial dysmorphies, global developmental delay and severe seizures. A deletion at 17p13.3, including the lissencephaly gene (LIS1), is usually present as part of a contiguous gene syndrome. Around 20% of case LSI1 gene is resulting from inherited bala... Show More

    Abstract: SMAD4 is a member of an intracellular signaling pathway protein family that is widely expressed in human tissues. This protein is responsible for carrying a chemical signal from the cell membrane to the nucleus. Since reduced SMAD4 expression leads to several tumors and neural disease, it is important to elucidate the mechanisms affecting the expre... Show More

    Abstract: Increasing evidence demonstrates that shortest more than mean telomere length predicts telomere dysfunction and genomic instability in association with a number of conditions, including cell senescence, aging and tumorigenesis. We developed Universal Single Cell Single Telomere Length Analysis (USC-STELA), based on a PCR-amplification and southern ... Show More

    Abstract: The most widely used clones were all breed by artificial hybrids steps in China, therefore it is important to research on pollination rate. Three individual trees of E. grandis and E. tereticornis were selected as female while the pollen of hybrid clone DH32-29, E. grandis, E. pellita, E. tereticornis and E. urophylla were collected as male. The re... Show More

    Abstract: Pakistan is blessed with rich sheep genetic resources and being a source of milk, meat and wool sheep breeds are reared across the country. Despite its great economic importance very limited work has been done in Pakistan on sheep genetic exploration. Leptin hormone plays important role in milk yield, body weight, energy balance, feed intake, immun... Show More

    Abstract: Uterine fibroids are benign proliferations of slow evolution. They are associated with significant morbidity and constitute a real public health problem. Despite the large-scale medical and financial burden posed by uterine fibroids, the functional roles of the various factors and genes involved in their etiology and growth remain unclear. This sho...
