The objective of this study was to determine if ultrasonographic changes in selected abdominal organs of acromegalic cats could be used to raise the index of suspicion for this condition. }, number={8}, journal={JOURNAL OF FELINE MEDICINE AND SURGERY}, author={Lourenco, Bianca N. and Randall, Elissa and Seiler, Gabriela and Lunn, Katharine F.}, year={2015}, month={Aug}, pages={698–703} }

Several systems were established. Internodal stem segments from vigorously growing greenhouse plants are the explants most amenable to transformation. For the most efficient system, approximately 40% of the stem segments infected with pBI121-containing Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 produced transgenic calli, as confirmed by beta-glucuronidase (GUS) staining. The regeneration efficiency of independent transgenic plants was approximately 13%, as revealed by genomic Southern analysis. Some transgenic plants were produced in as little as 5 months after co-cultivation. This system may help to facilitate studies of gene functions in tree growth and development at a genome level.}, number={11}, journal={PLANT AND CELL PHYSIOLOGY}, author={Song, Jingyuan and Lu, Shanfa and Chen, Zenn-Zong and Lourenco, Rodrigo and Chiang, Vincent L.}, year={2006}, month={Nov}, pages={1582–1589} }
