RECALIBRATED TREE OF LEAF BEETLES (CHRYSOMELIDAE) INDICATES INDEPENDENT DIVERSIFICATION OF ANGIOSPERMS AND THEIR INSECT HERBIVORES.

Recalibrated tree of leaf beetles (Chrysomelidae) indicates independent diversification of angiosperms and their insect herbivores.

The great diversity of the "Phytophaga" (weevils, longhorn beetles and leaf beetles) has been attributed to their co-radiation with the angiosperms based on matching age estimates for both groups, but phylogenetic information and molecular clock calibrations remain insufficient for this conclusion.A phylogenetic analysis of the leaf beetles (Chryso

Pharmacogenetics of new classes of antidiabetic drugs

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) has a continuously rising prevalence worldwide.Pharmacogenetics has been recognized as a promising concept for pharmacological treatment of T2D, as antidiabetic drugs are not equally effective and safe for all patients, and the costs of Astragalus Root diabetes treatment are increasing.The latest published guidelines on T2D tr
