Gombarezisztencia gének térképezése szőlőben = Mapping resistance genes against fungi in grapevine
Lisztharmat (PM) és peronoszpóra (DM) rezisztencia génekkel kapcsolt markerek szelekcióra való alkalmasságát vizsgáltuk szőlő inter-és intraspecifikus térképezési populációiban. Az interspecifikus hibridek a Muscadina rotundifolia x Vitis vinfera BC4 Cardinal, Kismis moldavszkij és Kismis vatkana fajtákkal előállított BC5 nemzedékei voltak. A M. rotundifolia az ismert RUN1 (PM) és az RPV1 (DM) domináns rezisztencia géneket tartalmazza. A BC5 nemzedékekben 1 CAPS és 3 SSR markerrel hatékonyan szelektáltuk a rezisztens genotípusokat. A V. vinifera fajták általában fogékonyak a lisztharmatra, de a fogékonyságuk eltérő. A Dzsandzsal karát írták le először PM rezisztens fajtaként, később azonban többet is azonosítottak, köztük a Kismis vatkanát, rezisztencia génjüket azonban nem jellemezték. A Nimrang x Kismis vatkana hibrid család elemzése során bebizonyosodott, hogy a Kismis vatkana PM génje, amelyet REN1-nek neveztek el, nem azonos a RUN1-gyel. A 13-as kromoszómára térképeződött, míg a RUN1 a 12-re. A REN1 körül azonosított 3 SSR markerrel genotipizáltuk a Génuai zamatos x Kismis vatkana és BC4 x Kismis vatkana utódokat. Az utóbbi család egyedei közül RUN1/REN1 piramidált genotípusokat szelektáltunk. Az azonos fenotípust meghatározó piramidált géneket tartalmazó növények azonosítása csak DNS-szintű elemzéssel lehetséges. A MAS hatékonyságának növelésére multiplex PCR módszert dolgoztunk ki. A REN1-gyel kapcsolt marker SSR profil alapján a Dzsandzsal kara is REN1 gént hordoz. | For validating markers linked to powdery (PM) and downy (DM) mildew resistance genes, applying them in marker assisted selection (MAS) we analyzed mapping populations, deriving from interspecific crosses of Vitis vinifera with Muscadinia rotundifolia carrying the dominant RUN1 (PM) and RPV1 (DM) resistance genes. One CAPS and 3 SSR markers proved to be adequate for selecting RUN1/RPV1 genotypes in the (M. rotundifolia x V. vinifera) BC4 x Cardinal, BC4 x Kishmish moldavskij and BC4 x Kishmish vatkana families. Kishmish vatkana is a PM resistant V. vinifera cultivar such as Dzhandzhal kara. Involving V. vinifera resistance genes into breeding gives the chance to avoid interspecific crosses. Analysis of a Nimrang x Kishmis vatkana progeny proved that PM resistance gene of Kishmish vatkana, called REN1, is different from RUN1. REN1 mapped into linkage group/LG 13, while RUN1 is in LG12. Three SSR markers were identified around the REN1 locus and applied for MAS in Génuai zamatos x Kishmis vatkana and BC4 x Kishmish vatkana hybrids. In this latter cross we proved the presence of the pyramided PM resistance genes. Plants carrying both RUN1 and REN1 for the same phenotype can be identified only with DNA analysis. This is the first time when SSR markers linked to REN1 were used for MAS. We elaborated a multiplex PCR method suitable for agarose electrophoresis. SSR profiles in REN1 linked loci suggest that Kismish vatkana and Dzhandzhal kara possess the same REN1 PM resistance gene
Sulfur and carbon in mIcrobial processes in waters and sediments of the Kara Sea in September 2007
Results of microbiological, biogeochemical and isotope geochemical studies in the Kara Sea are described. Samples for these studies were obtained during Cruise 54 of R/V Akademik Mstislav Keldysh in September 2007. The studied area covered the northern, central, and southwestern parts of the Kara Sea and the Obskaya Guba (Ob River estuary). Quantitative characteristics of total bacterial population and activity of microbial processes in the water column and bottom sediments were obtained. Total abundance of bacterioplankton (BP) varied from 250000 cells/ml in the northern Kara Sea to 3000000 cells/ml in the Obskaya Guba. BP abundance depended on concentration of suspensded matter. Net BP production was minimal in the central Kara Sea (up to 0.15-0.2 µg C/l/day) and maximal (0.5-0.75 µg C/l/day) in the Obskaya Guba. Organic material at the majority of stations at the Ob transect predominantly contained light carbon isotopes (-28.0 to -30.18 per mil) of terrigenous origin. Methane concentration in the surface water layer varied from 0.18 to 2.0 µl CH4/l, and methane oxidation rate varied from 0.1 to 100 nl CH4/l/day. Methane concentration in the upper sediment layer varied from 30 to 300 µl CH4/dm**3; rate of methane formation was varied from 44 to 500 nl CH4/dm**3/day and rate of methane oxidation - from 30 to 2000 nl CH4/dm**3/day. Rate of sulfate reduction varied from 4 to 184 µg S/dm**3/day
alpha/beta SiAlON BASED COMPOSITES INCORPORATED WITH MoSi2 FOR ELECTRICAL APPLICATIONS
8th Pacific Rim Conference on Ceramic and Glass Technology -- MAY 31-JUN 05, 2009 -- Vancouver, CANADAWOS: 000287268800018Electrically conductive alpha-beta SiAlON composites containing 30 vol. % MoSi2 was prepared by gas pressure sintering (GPS). The effect of sintering atmosphere on phase formation, grain growth, mechanical and electrical properties of the composites was discussed. In order to understand the effect of sintering atmosphere, composites were sintered under N-2 and Ar atmospheres during gas pressure sintering. It was observed that MoSi2 particles transformed to Mo5Si3 under N-2 but not under Ar. The resistivity of the produced composites varied from 10(8) Omega.m to 10(-3) Omega.m depending on the sintering atmosphere and the phase composition.Amer Ceram So
Effects of Melatonin on Oxidative Stress Index and Alveolar Bone Loss in Diabetic Rats With Periodontitis
Kara, Adem/0000-0002-5766-6116Background: the aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of systemic melatonin treatment on serum oxidative stress index (OSI) and alveolar bone loss (ABL) in rats with diabetes mellitus (DM) and periodontitis. Methods: Seventy Sprague Dawley rats were divided into control, experimentally induced periodontitis (EP), DM, EP-DM, EP and melatonin treatment (EP-MEL), DM and melatonin treatment (DMMEL), and EP-DM-MEL groups. DM was induced by alloxan, after which periodontitis was induced by ligature for 4 weeks. After removal of the ligature, the rats in the melatonin groups (EP-MEL, DM-MEL, and EP-DM-MEL) were treated with a single dose of melatonin (10 mg/body weight) every day for 14 consecutive days. At the end of the study, all of the rats were euthanized, and intracardiac blood samples and mandible tissues were obtained for biochemical and histologic analyses. Serum levels of total oxidant status/total antioxidant status and OSI were measured. in addition, neutrophil and osteoclast densities and myeloperoxidase activities were determined in gingival tissue homogenates, and ABL was evaluated with histometric measurements. Results: Melatonin treatment significantly reduced fasting plasma glucose levels in the rats with DM. in addition, reduced OSI and ABL levels were detected in the EP-MEL and DM-MEL groups; the reductions in the EP-DM-MEL group were found to be more prominent. Melatonin also significantly decreased the increased myeloperoxidase activities and osteoclast and neutrophil densities in the EP, DM, and EP-DM groups. Conclusion: It is revealed in this experimental study that melatonin significantly inhibited hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress and ABL through antiDM and antioxidant effects in rats with DM and periodontitis
Entanglement and quantity in quantum space - About quantum measurement (II)
As a continuation and extension of "quantity in phase space" "quantity in quantum space" is introduced. With that, the disappearing of quantum interference discussed in a previous paper [S. Durr, et al., Nature 395 (1998) 33] is explained in the same spirit as our recent papers [Ren De-Ming, Commun. Theor. Phys. (Beijing, China) 41 (2004) 685, 833].Physics, MultidisciplinarySCI(E)中国科学引文数据库(CSCD)1ARTICLE133-364
Sneutrino DM in the NMSSM with inverse seesaw mechanism
In supersymmetric theories like the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM), the lightest neutralino with bino or singlino as its dominant component is customarily taken as dark matter (DM) candidate. Since light Higgsinos favored by naturalness can strength the couplings of the DM and thus enhance the DM-nucleon scattering rate, the tension between naturalness and DM direct detection results becomes more and more acute with the improved experimental sensitivity. In this work, we extend the NMSSM by inverse seesaw mechanism to generate neutrino mass, and show that in certain parameter space the lightest sneutrino may act as a viable DM candidate, i.e. it can annihilate by multi-channels to get correct relic density and meanwhile satisfy all experimental constraints. The most striking feature of the extension is that the DM-nucleon scattering rate can be naturally below its current experimental bounds regardless of the higgsino mass, and hence it alleviates the tension between naturalness and DM experiments. Other interesting features include that the Higgs phenomenology becomes much richer than that of the original NMSSM due to the relaxed constraints from DM physics and also due to the presence of extra neutrinos, and that the signatures of sparticles at colliders are quite different from those with neutralino as DM candidate.National Natural Science Foundation of China (NNSFC) [11575053]SCI(E)ARTICLE1

Policy-driven Data Sharing over Attribute-Based Encryption supporting Dual Membership
Attribute-Based Encryption (ABE) plays an important role in current secure data sharing through fine-grained customizable policies. However, the existing ABE schemes only support simple predicates, = and ≠, but cannot express a more general membership predicates, ∈ and ∉, in policies. The low expressivity of ABE will enlarge the ciphertext storage and reduce the communication efficiency. To overcome this problem, we propose an ABE supporting Dual Membership (DM-ABE). The core problem for implementing this scheme is how to use cryptographic methods to decide the membership between the verified element and the given set. In order to solve this problem, we design a cryptographic algorithm, called Secure Decision of Membership (SDM), based on aggregation functions. In this algorithm, any set can be aggregated into one cryptographic element, and the verified element and the given set can be converted into another cryptographic element in decision process. The membership between them can be decided by the above two cryptographic elements. Furthermore, we construct the DM-ABE by using SDM. Because of the good expressivity of our DM-ABE, we further propose a novel cryptographic data sharing framework by integrating DM-ABE and attribute-based access control to provide fine-grained access control and security protection for private data. In the security proof of DM-ABE, we prove that the DM-ABE satisfies the semantic security against chosen-plaintext attacks under the DBDHE assumption in the standard model through a unified way, considering both two encryption methods for ∈ and ∉ at the same time. Finally, we analyze our scheme in terms of time and space complexity, and compare it with some existing schemes. The results show that our DM-ABE has a better expressive ability on the boolean logic of general membership predicates, ∈ and ∉.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Cyber Securit

This article is an open access article distributed under the terms and conditions of the Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) license (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).In this short review, corresponding to a talk given at the conference “Cosmology 2023 in Miramare”, we combine an analysis of five regions observed by H.E.S.S. in the Galactic Center, intending to constrain the Dark Matter (DM) density profile in a WIMP annihilation scenario. For the analysis, we include the state-of-the-art Galactic diffuse emission Gamma-optimized model computed with DRAGON and a wide range of DM density profiles from cored to cuspy profiles, including different kinds of DM spikes. Our results are able to constrain generalized NFW profiles with an inner slope ≳1.3 . When considering DM spikes, the adiabatic spike is completely ruled out. However, smoother spikes given by the interactions with the bulge stars are compatible if ≲0.8 , with an internal slope of sp-stars=1.5.This work has been supported by the grants PID2021-125331NB-I00, PID2022-139841NB-I00, and CEX2020-001007-S, funded by MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033, by “ERDF A way of making Europe”, and the MULTIDARK Project RED2022-134411-T.

Antidiabetic and antioxidant effects of Vitis vinifera L. CV. 'Kara Erik' seed extract in streptozotocin diabetic rats
In this study was aimed to investigate effects on the levels of liver and renal tissue CAT, MDA, SOD, GPx and GSH activities of Vitis vinifera L. cv. 'Kara Erik' seed extract on diabetic rats. A total of 28 male rats were randomly divided to four groups containing of 7 rats per group. Control Group: Received only vehicle 0.5% Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), STZ-DM (Streptozotosin-Diabetus mellitus) Group: Streptozotocin 60 mg/kg/IP single dose, VVE (Vitis vinifera L. seed extract) Group: Vitis vinifera seed extract 100 mg/kg/20days/po, STZ-DM+VVE Group: STZ as 60 mg/kg/IP single dose + VVE100 mg/kg/20days/po. At the end of these processes, the animals were sacrificed, liver and renal tissue were excised by dissection and evaluated. Catalase (CAT), Malondialdehyde (MDA), Superoxide dismutase (SOD), Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and Glutathione (GSH) were measured in the liver and renal homogenisates. VVE was shown that the activity of CAT, SOD and GSH activities increased and decreased levels of MDA in diabetic rats. As a result, the results showed that oral administration of VVE extract reduced the levels of lIPid peroxides and improved the antioxidant activity in liver and renal tissues in rats treated with V. vinifera seed extract as compared with the diabetic and control rats. These results suggested that the V. vinifera L. cv. seed extract enhanced the antioxidant defense under hyperglycaemic conditions hence protected the liver and renal cells
