PurposePercutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) can improve nutritional status and reduce the amount of time needed to feed neurologically impaired children.We evaluated the characteristics, complications, and outcomes of neurologically impaired children treated with PEG.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed the records of 32 neurologically impaired
Morphological description of a novel synthetic allotetraploid(A1A1G3G3) of Gossypium herbaceum L.and G.nelsonii Fryx. suitable for disease-resistant breeding applications.
Wild species of Gossypium ssp.are an important source of traits for improving commercial cotton cultivars.Previous reports show that Gossypium herbaceum here L.and Gossypium nelsonii Fryx.have better disease resistance characteristics than commercial cotton varieties.However, chromosome ploidy and biological isolation make it difficult to hybridize
Lysinabacillus fusiformis and Paenibacillus alvei Obtained from the Internal of Nasutitermes Termites Revealed Their Ability as Antagonist of Plant Pathogenic Fungi
This study was performed to reveal phenotypic characters and identity of symbiont bacteria of Nasutitermes as well as investigate their potential as antagonist of plant pathogenic fungi.Isolation of the symbiont bacteria was carried out from inside the heads and the bodies of soldier and worker termite which were collected from 3 locations of nests
