A field study was conducted (2021–2022) that evaluated the effects of deficit irrigation (DI) strategies [60% and 80% of crop evapotranspiration (ETc)] and plant growth regulators [PGRs; salicylic acid (SA) and naphthalene acetic acid (NAA)] on fruit yield, water use efficiency (WUE) and physiological responses of pomegranate grown in shallow basaltic soils. Irrigation at 80% ETc combined with SA and NAA significantly increase...

Summary C3G (RAPGEF1), engaged in multiple signaling pathways, is essential for the early development of the mouse. In this study, we have examined its role in mouse embryonic stem cell self-renewal and differentiation. C3G null cells generated by CRISPR mediated knock-in of a targeting vector exhibited enhanced clonogenicity and long-term self-renewal. They did not differentiate in response to LIF withdrawal when compared to...
