The only cultivar expressing consistent high levels of grain yield under S. asiatica infested conditions was CG14 (Table 4).
Based on rice grain weights obtained under S. asiatica infested conditions, and using the hierarchical cluster analysis and evaluation measures outlined above, cultivars were clustered in three groups (Fig. 3A C).
In case of aphids at both the events, namely, A2 and A24, the four induced contigs that were selected and represented both the events showed higher expression in the aphid-infested condition as compared with the non-infested control; however the range of expression varied from 1.5 to 2 fold.
Despite many complaints of abuse and rat-infested conditions in their home, the state acted to remove the children only after the couple beat one to death in 2000.
Most of all, though, we learned about the human horrors of the war, particularly on the Western front, where, for four terrible years, two vast armies engaged in trench warfare, living in awful, muddy, rat-infested conditions, trying to kill each other with machine guns, rifles, artillery, and poison gas.
The men at the front had to struggle with supply problems; the shortage of food and disease was rife in the damp, rat-infested conditions.
Yields obtained under Striga-infested conditions in the field show a high variability among cultivars, years and Striga species.
Here we investigated (1) whether resistance exhibited under controlled conditions would express under representative Striga-infested field conditions, and (2) whether NERICA cultivars would achieve relatively good grain yields under Striga-infested conditions.
For example, the chinch bug resistant cultivar 'Prestige' had higher peroxidase activity under both uninfested and chinch bug-infested conditions compared to the susceptible '378' [ 36].
This facilitated clustering of the cultivars in statistically distinct groups, based on Striga field resistance and rice grain yield under Striga-infested conditions.
