Genome-wide association studies of gene-environment interaction (GxE GWAS) are becoming popular.As with main effects GWAS, quantile-quantile plots (QQ-plots) and Genomic Control are being used to assess and correct for population substructure.However, in G x E work these approaches can be seriously misleading, as we illustrate; QQ-plots may give tu
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for nosocomial infections, and is often involved in airway infections of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients.P.aeruginosa virulence is related to its ability to form biofilm, trigger different types of motilities, and produce toxins (for example, bacterial pigments).In this scenario, essenti
DEAD-box helicases are a large family of conserved RNA-binding proteins that belong to the broader group of cellular DExD/H helicases.Members of the DEAD-box helicase family have roles throughout cellular RNA metabolism from biogenesis to decay.Moreover, there is emerging evidence that cellular RNA helicases, including DEAD-box helicases, play role
Economic growth and green turbosound ts-18sw700/8a environment has a direct relation with health, habitat and well being of our society which depends largely on the natural environment.But on the other side the society is neglecting and often ignoring the benefits that nature provides for economic prosperity.This paper studies the role of environme
A computational approach was used to analyze the FTIR spectra of a wide range of treated and untreated lignocellulosic biomass (coconut husk, banana trunk, sago hampas, rice husk, and empty fruit bunch).The biomass was treated with strong sulphuric acid and NaOH, respectively.A total of 87 spectra were obtained in which the absorption bands were de
