Salicylic acid confers cadmium tolerance in wheat by regulating photosynthesis, yield and ionic homeostasis by Umer Hayat, Kaleem ul din, Muhammad Ahmad, Usman Zulfiqar, Maryium Sajjad, Muhammad Faisal Maqsood, Walid Soufan, P. V. Vara Prasad, Ivica Djalovic

“…The findings of the study have revealed that Cd stress prominently reduced the plant growth and yield, gaseous exchange attributes, and relative water content of both wheat varieties, and more reduction was observed in Anaj-17 as compared to Akbar-19. Plant height, economic yield, photosynthetic rate, and relative water content were decreased by (9.80 and 8.20%), (12.2 and 6.58%), (20 and 11.32%), and (12.5 and 10%) in Anaj-17 and Akbar-19 respectively. …”

Duplex qPCR for detecting and differentiating porcine epidemic diarrhea virus GI and GII subtypes by Bin Wang, Wang Han, Di Wu, Yue Jing, Li Ma, Feiyang Jiang, Shusen Ji, Lianmei Bai, Xiuju Yu, Wei Hou, Shouyu Wang, Haidong Wang

“…IntroductionPorcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is a pathogen that causes a highly contagious intestinal disease in pigs, which causes significant economic losses to the pig industry worldwide. PCR is the most commonly used technique for PEDV diagnosis in practical clinics, however, reported works still suffer from shortcomings, for example, most of them cannot differentiate GI and GII subtypes, they suffer from low sensitivity, and some primer sequences are no longer able to match the mutant strains.MethodsTo address these issues, we conducted a comprehensive analysis by comparing the sequences of the PEDV S protein in the existing NCBI database with a recently isolated epidemic strain of PEDV, named SX0818-2022, of subtype GIIa from Shanxi, China. …”
