We sequenced and compared the genomes of the Dothideomycete fungal plant pathogens
Cladosporium fulvum (Cfu) (syn. Passalora fulva) and Dothistroma septosporum (Dse) that …

Background Noise-induced hearing loss is a leading cause of occupational and recreational
injury and disease, and a major determinant of age-related hearing loss. No therapeutic …

Noise exposure that causes a temporary threshold shift but no permanent threshold shift
can cause degeneration of synaptic ribbons and afferent nerve fibers, with a corresponding …

Background: Human hearing is sensitive to sounds from as low as 20 Hz to as high as 20,000
Hz in normal ears. However, clinical tests of human hearing rarely include extended high-…

The intelligibility of speech stimuli recorded within the uterus of a pregnant sheep was determined
perceptually using a group of untrained judges. The intrauterine sound environment of …

The Cf-5 gene of tomato confers resistance to strains of the fungal pathogen Cladosporium
fulvum carrying the avirulence gene Avr5. Although Cf-5 has been cloned, Avr5 has …

Tomato leaf mold disease is caused by the biotrophic fungus Cladosporium fulvum. During
infection, C. fulvum produces extracellular small secreted protein (SSP) effectors that function …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between recreational
sound exposure and potentially undiagnosed or subclinical hearing loss by assessing sound …

In fungi, genes involved in the production of secondary metabolites are generally clustered
at one location. There are some exceptions, such as genes required for synthesis of …

This study examined potential prevention of music-induced temporary threshold shift (TTS)
in normal-hearing participants. A dietary supplement composed of β-carotene, vitamins C …
