A MODEL OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE GIVING A PLAUSIBLE MECHANISM FOR THE EFFECT OF FRACTIONATED LOW-DOSE IONIZING RADIATION EXPOSURE.

A model of cardiovascular disease giving a plausible mechanism for the effect of fractionated low-dose ionizing radiation exposure.

Atherosclerosis is the main cause of coronary heart disease and stroke, the two major causes of death in developed society.There is emerging evidence of excess risk of cardiovascular disease at low radiation doses in various occupationally exposed groups receiving small daily radiation doses.Assuming that they are causal, the mechanisms for effects

Non-Structural Protein NSm of Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus Is an Avirulence Factor Recognized by Resistance Genes of Tobacco and Tomato via Different Elicitor Active Sites

Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) is one of the most destructive viral pathogens of plants.Recently, a single dominant gene conferring complete resistance to TSWV (RTSW) was identified in Nicotina alata and introgressed into cultivated tobacco (N.tabacum).However, whether the TSWV carries an avirulence (Avr) factor directed against HERBATINT FF3 RTS
