Phenotypic Characterization of Advanced Breeding Lines of Rice (Oryza sativa L.) for Drought and Low Phosphorus Stress Tolerance

Received: 02 August 2024;  Published: 01 November 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.genet.2404270

Abstract

Drought and phosphorus (P) deficiency stress are two significant natural abiotic stresses restricting rice growth and yield worldwide. Developing rice varieties tolerant to drought and low P stress is crucial for sustainable agricultural production. To address these issues, two separate experiments [...]

Synergistic Effect of Resveratrol and Paclitaxel in the Treatment of Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma

Received: 11 June 2024;  Published: 18 October 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.genet.2404268

Abstract

Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a lethal and aggressive cancer due to exposure to asbestos since this carcinogen is still being used in industrial buildings and housing in several countries. Untreated MPM has a median survival time of 12 months, and most people die within 24 months after dia [...]

Novel FLNC Gene Variant Associated with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Received: 13 August 2024;  Published: 12 October 2024;  doi: 10.21926/obm.genet.2404266

Abstract

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common inherited cardiomyopathy, affecting approximately 1 in 500 people. It is the most common genetic cardiomyopathy inherited as a Mendelian trait in approximately 50% of patients, mainly due to pathogenic variants in genes encoding sarcomeric protein [...]
