1. High grain quality accessions within a maize drought tolerant core collection
Maize (Zea mays L.) landraces are an important source of genes for improving commercial germplasm. Today, drought tolerance and grain quality are major challenges in maize cultivation due to climatic changes and population growth. The Maize Research Institute genebank has a drought tolerant collection, which includes 13 landraces (from the former Yugoslavia)

2. Fé e saber em Habermas: a reserva semântica da religião na sociedade secularizada
Habermas considers religion as an important issue in contemporary semantics. We are living in a post metaphysical period and the proposal of a universal autonomy of religion does not have any support anymore. At the initial moment we work in the evolution of Habermas thought till reaching to consider a philosophy of religion. In the second moment, we explore

3. Abiotrophia Species as a Cause of Endophthalmitis Following Cataract Extraction
Microorganisms of the genus Abiotrophia, members of the oral flora, are known as important causes of bacterial endocarditis. In this study, we report two individual cases of acute vitreous infection caused by Abiotrophia adiacens and Abiotrophia defectiva approximately a week after cataract extraction. Abiotrophia isolates were recovered by cultivation of vi

4. Opaque-2 is a transcriptional activator that recognizes a specific target site in 22-kD zein genes.
opaque-2 (o2) is a regulatory locus in maize that plays an essential role in controlling the expression of genes encoding the 22-kD zein proteins. Through DNase I footprinting and DNA binding analyses, we have identified the binding site for the O2 protein (O2) in the promoter of 22-kD zein genes. The sequence in the 22-kD zein gene promoter that is recogniz

5. Gap junctional coupling in lenses lacking α3 connexin
Fiber cells of the lens are interconnected by an extensive network of gap junctions containing α3 (Cx46) and α8 (Cx50) connexins. A specific role for these connexins in lens homeostasis is not known. To determine the contribution of these connexins to lens function, we used impedance techniques to study cell-to-cell coupling in lenses from homozygous α3 k
