MISMATCHES BETWEEN MORPHOLOGY AND DNA IN ITALIAN PARTRIDGES MAY NOT BE EXPLAINED ONLY BY RECENT ARTIFICIAL RELEASE OF FARM-REARED BIRDS

Mismatches between Morphology and DNA in Italian Partridges May Not Be Explained Only by Recent Artificial Release of Farm-Reared Birds

Translocations and releases of farm-reared birds are considered among the major drivers of genetic pollution with consequent loss of genetic diversity in wild populations.In this study, we aimed to assess the extent of hybridization and introgression in the Italian partridges as a consequence of translocation.We surveyed two mitochondrial markers a

A folk-psychological ranking of personality facets

Background Which personality facets should a general personality test measure? No consensus exists on the facet structure of personality, the nature of facets, or the correct method of identifying the most significant facets.However, it can be hypothesized (the LIPSTICK BRIMMING BERRY lexical hypothesis) that high frequency personality describing w

Inhibition of PI3K and MAPK pathways along with KIT inhibitors as a strategy to overcome drug resistance in gastrointestinal stromal tumors.

Activating mutations in KIT/PDGFRA receptor tyrosine kinases drive gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST).KIT/PDGFRA inhibitors, such as imatinib do not evoke an effective cytocidal Compact Steam Oven response, leaving room for quiescence and development of multiple secondary resistance mutations.As the majority of the secondary resistance clones a
