2009 NOV 29 -- New research on the fruit-fly brain points to a possible mechanism by which temperature influences the body clock, according to scientists from Queen Mary, University of London. Although much is known about how light affects the body......
2009 NOV 29 -- In a novel approach at disseminating scientific research, the Johns Hopkins Malaria Research Institute (JHMRI) will hold a web summit to release the latest breakthroughs in malaria research, including new approaches to boosting mosquito immunity......
2009 NOV 29 -- Infants who are exposed to higher levels of air pollution are at increased risk for bronchiolitis, according to a new study. The study appears in the November 15 issue of the American Thoracic Society's American Journal of Respiratory......
2009 NOV 29 -- Bad drivers may in part have their genes to blame, suggests a new study by UC Irvine neuroscientists. People with a particular gene variant performed more than 20 percent worse on a driving test than people without it - and a follow-up......
2009 NOV 29 -- "We transformed the European pear (Pyrus communis L.) 'La France' and 'Ballade' with the Citrus FLOWERING LOCUS T (CiFT) gene, which induces early flowering. Subsequent DNA blot analysis of the transformed and wild-type plants indicated that......
2009 NOV 28 -- According to recent research from Marburg, Germany, "In the last years, several susceptibility genes for psychiatric disorders have been identified, among others G72 (also named D-amino acid oxidase activator, DAOA). Typically, the high-risk......
2009 NOV 29 -- According to recent research from Chiba, Japan, "The development of leaves and flowers in the wild type anti pleiotropic maple-willow (m(w)) Mutant of Japanese morning glory (Ipomoea nil) was studied to reveal the developmental and regional......
2009 NOV 29 -- The AIDS virus inserts its genetic material into the genome of the infected cell. Scientists of the German Cancer Research Center have now shown for the first time that the virus almost entirely spares particular sites in the human genetic......

2009 NOV 29 -- A new study reveals that a previously undiscovered mouse gene reduces the two major pathological perturbations commonly associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). The research, published by Cell Press in the November 12 issue of the journal......
2009 NOV 29 -- Researchers at the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute (VBI) at Virginia Tech and Montana State University have discovered a fungal protein that plays a key role in causing disease in plants and animals and which also shields the pathogen from......
2009 NOV 29 -- The lipid that accumulates in brain cells of individuals with an inherited enzyme disorder also drives the cell death that is a hallmark of the disease, according to new research led by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital......
2009 NOV 29 -- "Eight members of the Allium fistulosum L.-shallot (Allium cepa L Aggregatum group) mnoosomic addition line (2n=17, FF + 1A-FF+8A) proved to be very effective in revealing the effects of single alien chromosomes front A. cepa on the production......
2009 NOV 28 -- Researchers have transplanted genetically modified hematopoietic stem cells into mice so that their developing red blood cells produce a critical lysosomal enzyme -preventing or reducing organ and central nervous system damage from the......

2009 NOV 29 -- "Vigorous seedling growth is a desirable trait for machine-assisted transplanting using a plug nursery system in bunching onion. This study was undertaken to identify the quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling seedling growth and to......
2009 NOV 27 -- "Several biological functions in mammals are regulated in a circadian fashion. The molecular mechanisms orchestrating these circadian rhythms have been unravelled," researchers in Netherlands report. "The biological clock, with its......
2009 NOV 27 -- According to a study from the United States, "16S rRNA gene libraries from the lithoautotrophic Fe(II)-oxidizing, nitrate-reducing enrichment culture described by Straub et al. (K.L. Straub, M. Benz, B. Schink, and F. Widdel, Appl. Environ.......
2009 NOV 29 -- "Jimba' is the most popular white-flowered chrysanthemum cultivar in Japan. A yellow-flowered cultivar with the same growth properties as 'Jimba' will benefit growers because both forms could be produced under the same conditions,"......
2009 NOV 29 -- When it comes to plants' innate immunity, like many of the dances of life, it takes two to tango. A receptor molecule in the plant pairs up with a specific molecule on the invading bacteria and, presto, the immune system swings into action to......
2009 NOV 29 -- If humans are genetically related to chimps, why did our brains develop the innate ability for language and speech while theirs did not? Scientists suspect that part of the answer to the mystery lies in a gene called FOXP2. When......
