Brassinosteroids (BRs) are steroidal hormones that play pivotal roles during plant development. In addition to the characterization of BR deficient mutants, specific BR biosynthesis inhibitors played an essential role in the elucidation of BR function in plants. However, high costs
Propiconazole induces hepatocellular carcinomas and hepatocellular adenomas in mice and promotes liver tumors in rats. Transcriptional, proteomic, metabolomic and biochemical studies of hepatic tissues from mice treated with propiconazole under the conditions of the chronic bioassay indicated that propiconazole induced

Silicon is the second most abundant element on earth's surface and its use can stimulate natural defense mechanisms in plants. The effect of silicate from scraps of photovoltaic industries against powdery mildew on zucchini (Cucurbita pepo) was evaluated under greenhouse
Pest management science, 68(7), 1003-1009 (2012-02-22)
The long-term preservation of interesting phenotypes in plant pathogenic fungi allows for follow-up studies in the future. Twelve storage approaches were investigated to determine their effects on instability of propiconazole resistance for three demethylation inhibitor (DMI) fungicide-resistant and two DMI-sensitive
Rhinosinusitis infection due to Saksenaea vasiformis is extremely rare. The present case describes a rhino-orbital infection in a 21-month-old Chadian immunocompetent male child with a 2-month history of excessive tearing from the right eye, followed by swelling of the right
