Characterization of PRD-1 Mutation in Neurospora crassa
… components of the FRQ/WCC oscillator and prd-1 and prd-2 genes could be important components of the FLO. This project aims to characterize the prd-1 mutation. This involved mapping the mutation using PCR analyses based on single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. After determining a …

Functional Similarity of Prd-Containing Virulence Regulators In Bacillus Anthracis
<p><em>Bacillus anthracis </em>produces three regulators, AtxA, AcpA, and AcpB, that control virulence gene expression and are members of an emerging class of regulators termed “PCVRs” (Phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase regulation Domain-Containing Virulence Regulators). AtxA …

Transportation choices and regional development in the Pearl River Delta
The Pearl River Delta (PRD) has been one of the fastest growing regions in China for the past 15 years. This tremendous economic expansion, fueled by the opening of Chinese markets to foreign investment, has created a number of complex planning issues in the region. While the PRD has become more …

The association and transmission of Leptographium procerum (Kendr.) wing., by root feeding insects in Christmas tree plantations
Procerum root disease (PRD), caused by Leptographium procerum (Kendr.) Wingf., is the most serious problem facing Christmas tree growers of eastern white pine, (Pinus strobus L.). Limited studies have shown an association between PRD affected trees and insect infestations, and L. procerum has been …

Hydrological urbanism in China's Pearl River Delta : how water landscape shapes the urban form in a changing climate
… in an urbanizing city in the Pearl River delta (PRD), it is hard to imagine that just forty years ago this area was filled with streams, ponds and rice paddies. Since the Reform in 1978, the PRD metropolitan area, with the name as "World Factory", has been a pilot in urbanization together with …

Screening for Proteinopathic-related Dementias in Low-resource Clinical Contexts: A Machine Learning Approach
… subtypes of proteinopathic-related dementias (PRDs) is increasing rapidly in low- or middle-income countries (LMICs). The wide-ranging social and economic consequences of PRDs means there is an urgent need for clinical services dedicated to their early and accurate detection, particularly in …

Manejo da irrigação na indução floral e na fase produtiva da mangueira Tommy Atkins em condições semiáridas
… o manejo da irrigação lateralmente alternada - PRD, sendo cada planta equivalente a uma unidade experimental. As lâminas foram reduzidas a partir de 100% da evapotranspiração diária da cultura. Os tratamentos referentes à RDI e a PRD foram aplicados nas três fases de desenvolvimento dos frutos, …

Studies on the spread of Verticicladiella procera by soil-borne and insect-borne propagules
… the causal agent of Procera Root Disease (PRD). Propagule germinability in artificially infested soil decrease rapidly under natural and controlled conditions. Colonization of seedlings in artificially infested soil was rare and symptoms were not displayed by colonized seedlings. Natural …

An evaluation of the factors that determine carrier selection
… their factories to the Pearl River Delta (PRD) due to the low labour and land costs. Delivery of shipments was mainly carried out by Hong Kong freight forwarders as they had been in business with the shippers for decades. Road transport was the only mode choice available at that time due to …

Coalitions and Incumbency Advantage in Mexico
… seats were won by a coalition between PAN and PRD. It is found that a PAN-PRD coalition does not guarantee the incumbent party can be overthrown. Results show that such a coalition can reduce the probability of PRI being voted in a district by up to 60%.

Caratterizzazione agronomica e fisiologica di genotipi di sorgo zuccherino per la produzione di bioetanolo
… risparmio idrico è la Partial Rootzone Drying (PRD), che coinvolge l'irrigazione solo di una parte della zona radicale ad ogni turno di irrigazione. Lo scopo di questa ricerca è stato di individuare tra diversi genotipi di sorgo zuccherino e da fibra quelli che meglio rispondevano alle …

Factors influencing the infectivity of the potato cyst nematodes, Globodera rostochiensis and G. pallida
… soon after stimulation by potato root diffusate (PRD) (early hatching JJ2) or following a delayed response (late hatching JJ2). There was little difference in the desiccation survival of the two groups but behavioural assays indicated that early hatching JJ2 travelled further than late hatching …

Developmental dynamics of posterior segment addition in the spider Parasteatoda tepidariorum
… Pt-odd skipped (odd), Pt-hairy (h), Pt-paired (prd), and their duplicates where present. Pt-eve and selected duplicates of Pt-h and Pt-prd exhibited segmentation-relevant expression patterns, whereas no Pt-odd transcripts were detected in the segment addition zone (SAZ). Pairwise in situ …

Influence of site factors and vascular conductivity on the development of procerum root disease
Procerum root disease (PRD) is a serious problem in eastern white pine (Pinus strobus L.) Christmas tree plantations in VIrginia. Procerum root disease is caused by Leptographium procerum (Kendr.) Wingf which is believed to be transmitted by the pales weevil Hylobius pales (Herbst). Symptoms of …

INVESTIGATING PAIR-RULE GENE ORTHOLOGS IN AN INTERMEDIATE GERM BEETLE, DERMESTES MACULATUS
… defects with different severities. Both Dmac-prd and -slp knockdown resulted in typical PR defects, suggesting that they are “core” PR genes. Dmac-eve, -run and -odd have dual roles in germ band elongation and in PR segmentation, as severe knockdown caused anterior-only, asegmental embryos …

Model Systems For Studies At The Plasma Membrane: Investigating Lipid Phase Behavior And Protein-Mediated Membrane Remodeling
… domain protein enriched in neurons, by dynamin-1 PRD (prolinerich domain). While key basic residues in the PRD were vital to the activation of pacsin-1, we found that pacsin-1's membrane sculpting potential depends on membrane properties such as curvature and bending rigidity. In separate in vitro …

Purpose in Life as a Tool for Managing Racial Discrimination and Suicide Ideation in Racial/Ethnic Minority Emerging Adults
… between perceived racial discrimination (PRD) on suicidal ideation (b = - .47, p = .13), however, PIL was a significant moderator (b = - .06, p = .025). A hierarchical regression showed that PIL as a moderator explained additional variance (∆R2 = 0.112, p < .001) in suicide ideation above …

Where and how much : density scenarios for the residential build-out of Gaoming, China
… the western part of China's Pearl River Delta (PRD) as an opportunity to examine the impact a range of residential densities along planned public transportation corridors can have on the rate and degree of agricultural land conversion in urbanizing areas. The author will use collected field data …

Regulation of The Escrt Function of Alix
… between N-terminal Bro1 domain and C-terminal PRD (proline-rich domain), leading to a closed conformation of ALIX that cannot interact with CHMP4. This predicts that ALIX involvement in ESCRT-mediated processes requires an activation step that relieves the intramolecular interaction of …
