Case control studies of nonagenarians and centenarians provide evidence that long‐lived individuals do not
differ in the rate of disease associated variants compared to population controls. These results suggest that an enrichment
of novel protective variants, rather than a lack of disease associated variants, determine the genetic predisposition to
exceptionally...

Porous silicon prepared by low-cost and scalable magnesiothermic reactions is a promising anode material for Li-ion batteries; yet, retaining good cycling stability for such materials in electrodes of practical loading remains a challenge. Here, we engineered the nanoporous silicon from a modified magnesiothermic reaction by controlled surface oxidization forming a...

Clostridium perfringens type A isolates producing enterotoxin (CPE) are an
important cause of both food poisoning (FP) and non food borne gastrointestinal
diseases (NFBGID) in both humans and animals. C. perfringens type A food
poisoning is caused by isolates carrying the CPE encoding gene (cpe) on the
chromosome while the...
Quince (Cydonia oblonga Mill.) is widely used as a dwarfing rootstock for pear
{Pyrus communis L.). The disadvantage of this rootstock is its inefficient uptake of Fe,
resulting in leaf chlorosis. Application of tissue culture and gene transfer techniques may
lead to production of quince clones with improved Fe efficiency....
The recent focus on transition from school to working
life has created a growing concern in Oregon about teachers
with elementary certification as their initial certification
who earn a special education certificate and teach students
with disabilities in secondary settings. Thus, the purpose
of this study was to investigate the...
