MODELING RICE METABOLISM: FROM ELUCIDATING ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS ON CELLULAR PHENOTYPE TO GUIDING CROP IMPROVEMENT

Modeling rice metabolism: from elucidating environmental effects on cellular phenotype to guiding crop improvement

Crop productivity is severely limited by various biotic and abiotic stresses.Thus, it is highly needed to understand the underlying mechanisms of environmental stress response and tolerance in plants, which could be addressed by systems biology approach.To this end, high-throughput omics profiling and in silico modeling can be considered to explore

Case report: Three adult brothers with cystic fibrosis (delF508-delF508) maintain unusually preserved clinical profile in the absence of standard CF care

We present three cases in this report.Three adult brothers, homozygous for the delF508 cystic fibrosis mutation, have maintained an unusually preserved clinical condition even though they did not attend a CF Clinic during their childhood, do not attend a CF Clinic now, and do not follow standard CF care guidelines.The brothers use an alternative CF
