integrated crop solutions – the combination of high value seeds and chemical and biological crop protection

Bavi Crops or PS Targeting in agriculture ...as BOD Dr Mackey knows the relevance and maybe she should begin to seek answers from the BOD in asking if the PS Targeting IP is being fully advanced to maximize shareholder value

Avid Bioservices constructed a business plan for the company which includes milestones / royalties etc etc etc from Oncologie and from UTSWM ?? so the questions must be considered as to pulling the IP away from Oncologie due to not advancing the IP per contracted

Biomarkers are key

Why has there been no response from the BOD ?

How plants perceive salt

High salt levels in the soil harm plant growth and limit crop yields. A salt-binding membrane lipid has been identified as being essential for salt perception and for triggering calcium signals that lead to salt tolerance.

There is evidence in plants that another type of membrane lipid called phosphatidylserine can also affect the formation of microdomains that mediate the regulation of GTPases, Ca2+ or ROS signalling13. It has been reported14 that phosphatidylserine can regulate GTPase-mediated signalling in plants and enable the formation of hormone-induced (rather than salt-stress mediated) clustering of GTPases in lipid membranes. Moreover, GIPCs can contribute to the generation of other signalling events in plants. For example, they act as receptors for specific toxins that cause plant disease, and plants with altered GIPC composition are more resistant to such toxins than are plants with a normal GIPC composition15. These observations, together with those reported by Jiang and colleagues, indicate that GIPCs fulfil versatile sensing and signalling functions in plants. This work also points to a crucial role for membrane-lipid composition in organizing functionally important signalling domains for many key processes in plants.
