Protection against gram-negative bacteremia and endotoxemia with human monoclonal IgM antibodies.

abstract：:Flowering plants often prevent selfing through mechanisms of self-incompatibility (S.I.). The loss of S.I. has occurred many times independently, because it provides short-term advantages in situations where pollinators or mates are rare. The genus Capsella, which is closely related to Arabidopsis, contains a pair of ...
