Identification of a cDNA from the Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungus Glomus intraradices that is Expressed During Mycorrhizal Symbiosis and Up-Regulated by N Fertilization

A cDNA library was constructed with RNA from Glomus intraradices-colonized lettuce roots and used for differential screening.This allowed the identification of a cDNA (Gi-1) that was expressed only in mycorrhizal roots and was of read more fungal origin.The function of the gene product is unknown, because Gi-1 contained a complete open reading fram

Comparative Effectiveness of Enhanced Patient Instructions for Bowel Preparation Before Colonoscopy: Network Meta-analysis of 23 Randomized Controlled Trials

BackgroundVarious enhanced patient instructions (EPIs) have been used for bowel preparation (BP) and our previous meta-analysis also demonstrated the efficacy of EPIs in increasing the colonic polyp and adenoma detection rates; however, the optimal method for adequate BP has not yet been developed.ObjectiveWe performed a network meta-analysis to de
