Temperature-stratified screening of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genetic resource collections reveals very limited reproductive chilling tolerance compared to its annual wild relatives
(2012)
Low reproductive chilling tolerance in chickpea impairs ovule fertilization, delaying pod set, exposing the crop to terminal drought throughout much of its distribution range. Despite this realization, little progress has ...
Systematics and Taxonomic Keys for the Marine Green Algal Family Monostromataceae
(Nova Science Publishers, 2012)
Marine green algal family Monostromataceae consists of single cell-layered green seaweeds distributed throughout the world, yet identification of it being one of the most challenging. Monostromatic green seaweeds are all ...
Cancer phylogenetics: Computational modeling of tumor evolution
(Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2012)
The field of phylogenetics is one of the core areas of Bioinformatics which deals with computational methods to infer evolutionary heritage of organisms and genes. While phylogenetics has been extensively utilized in ...
Chromosomal location of non-hypersensitive leaf rust resistance genes in bread wheat cultivar PBW65 using microsatellite markers
(2012)
Microsatellite or simple sequence repeat (SSRs) markers have been powerful tool for genetic mapping in wheat. Indian bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar PBW65 has shown significant level of resistance to most ...

To study the effect of insulin on advanced androgen-indpendent prostate cancer (pc-3) cells
(Central University of Punjab, 2012)
Prostate cancer is one of the major causes of mortality in males over the age of fifty all over the world. Many factors including genetics and diet have been associated with the development of prostate cancer. Hyperinsulinemia ...
MicroRNA target prediction and comparative micromics; Study different cancers- special focus on breast cancer metastasis
(Central University of Punjab, 2012)
Cancer or carcinoma is uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. The transition of normal cell to cancerous cell is very complicated process and the cause of transition varies with situation. Metastasis is the main cause of ...
Phytogenetic analysis of bacterial diversity of heavy metal affected
(Central University of Punjab, 2012)
The soil of Bathinda region is affected by heavy metals due to anthropogenic activity, industrial effluent and fly ash. Three soil samples in triplicate were collected from three different places of Bathinda region, abandoned ...
Histopathological staging in putative prostate cancer tissues and reviewing litearture of correlation between prostate specific antigen levels and prostate cancer inci. 2012.
(Central University of Punjab, 2012)
Prostate cancer (PCa) remains the most significant cause of cancer specific mortality in elderly men. Asymptomatic behavior, non-modifiable risk factors and metastatic nature is the main problem of PCa. It remains clinically ...
Effect of metform on insuln mediated proliferation of lung cancer cell lines
(Central University of Punjab, 2012)
Background: The incidence of cancer in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients is a matter of concern. Lung cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and leading cause of death in males. Smoking is the main risk factor contributing ...
