Islam et nationalisme en Asie centrale au début de la période soviétique (1924-1937). L'exemple de l'Ouzbékistan, à travers quelques sources littéraires by Stéphane A. Dudoignon

Molecular profiling and detection methods of microRNA in cancer research by Nurul-Syakima Ab Mutalib, Imilia Ismail, Hooi-Leng Ser

“…However, with more researchers dwelling into the world of these mysterious genetic codes, a group of non-protein coding RNA (ncRNA) known as microRNAs (miRNAs) is now being recognized to play important roles than they were thought to be. In truth, the first discovery of miRNA was in a simple organism -nematode (scientific name: Caenorhabditis elegans), whereby a mutant displayed aberrant morphological changes. …”

Honey Bee Tracheal Mite, Acarapis woodi (Rennie) (Arachnida: Acarina: Tarsonemidae) by Harold A. Denmark, Harvey L. Cromroy, Malcolm T. Stanford

“…It was later shown that the tracheal mite was not the cause of the "Isle of Wight" disease (Bailey 1964), and later reports (Bailey 1968, Morse 1978) indicate that A. woodi is not as serious a pest of honey bees as previously thought. In combination with other adverse conditions, however, heavy mite infestations may cause a reduction in bee activity. …”
