This study was undertaken to develop a numerical process that can be used as a quality criterion to determine the technological value of the Egyptian cotton varieties, which in turn would denote the end-use of their fibers. However the material used in the st…

We report here a damping-off disease occurring at the seedling stage, resulting in severe loss of the seedling stands caused by an important soil-borne fungal pathogen, Fusarium oxysporum. Endophyte-infected plants appear to be more resistant to the damping-o…

Here, we analyzed whether the microRNA (miRNA) expression levels differ between maize inbred lines B73 and Mo17 and their reciprocal hybrids under salt and drought stress. We found that miR156, miR164, miR166, miR168, miR171 and miR319 are differentially expr…
