UNVEILING THE COMPLEXITY OF JAPANESE METALLIC THREADS

Unveiling the Complexity of Japanese Metallic Threads

In the framework of an extensive survey campaign on a collection of Japanese samurai armors, metallic threads from different parts of the traditional equipment were studied by several analytical techniques.The collection of armors belongs to Museo delle Culture (Lugano, Switzerland) and it is composed of ten elements, which date back from the 15th

Flax rust infection transcriptomics reveals a transcriptional profile that may be indicative for rust Avr genes.

Secreted effectors of fungal pathogens are essential elements for disease development.However, lack of sequence conservation among identified effectors has long been a problem for predicting effector complements in fungi.Here we have explored the expression characteristics of avirulence (Avr) genes and candidate effectors of the flax rust fungus, M
