The drought-tolerant grass Brachypodium distachyon is an emerging model species for temperate grasses and cereal crops. To explore the usefulness of this species for drought studies, a reproducible in vivo drought assay was developed. Spontaneous soil drying led to a 45% reduction in leaf size, and this was mostly due to a decrease in cell expansion, whereas cell division remained largely unaffected by drought. To investigate the molecular basis of the observed leaf growth reduction, the third Brachypodium leaf was dissected in three zones, namely proliferation, expan- sion, and mature zones, and subjected to transcriptome analysis, based on a whole-genome tiling array. This approach allowed us to highlight that transcriptome profiles of different developmental leaf zones respond differently to drought. Several genes and functional processes involved in drought tolerance were identified. The transcriptome data suggest an increased energy availability in the proliferation zones, along with an up-regulation of sterol synthesis that may influ-ence membrane fluidity. This information may be used to improve the tolerance of temperate cereals to drought, which is undoubtedly one of the major environmental challenges faced by agriculture today and in the near future.

Plant responses to drought are regulated by complex genetic and epigenetic networks leading to rapid reprogramming of plant growth, miRNAs have been widely indicated as key players in the regulation of growth and development. The role of miRNAs in drought response was investigated in young leaves of Brachypodium dis- tachyon, a drought-tolerant monocot model species. Adopting an in vivo drought assay, shown to cause a dramatic reduction in leaf size, mostly due to reduced cell expansion, small RNA libraries were produced from proliferating and expanding leaf cells. Next-generation sequencing data were analyzed using an in-house bioinformatics pipeline allowing the identification of 66 annotated miRNA genes and 122 new high confidence predictions greatly expand- ing the number of known Brachypodium miRNAs. In addition, we identified four TAS3 loci and a large number of siRNA-producing loci that show characteristics suggesting that they may represent young miRNA genes. Most miR- NAs showed a high expression level, consistent with their involvement in early leaf development and cell identity. Proliferating and expanding leaf cells respond differently to drought treatment and differential expression analyses suggest novel evidence for an miRNA regulatory network controlling cell division in both normal and stressed condi-tions and demonstrate that drought trigger a genetic reprogramming of leaf growth in which miRNAs are deeply involved.

The paper develops a view on the history and future of working capital programs and focuses on the state of the art in four remarkable years： 1900, 1930, 1960, and 1990. In these years, an operations approach, an accounting approach, an economic approach, and a capital market approach, respectively, were prevalent. The paper shows that all of the approaches have their merits for today＇s working capital management （WCM） programs and discusses useful working capital program indicators, taking into account the cash conversion cycle （CCC） and its delineation into accounts receivables （A/R）, inventory, and accounts payables （A/P） periods. This enables the author to take step ahead to the magic year 2020. Finally, the paper discusses briefly an academic development agenda.

Before being dispersed in the environment, mature seeds need to be dehydrated. The survival of seeds after dispersal depends on their low hydration in combination with high desiccation tolerance. These characteristics are estab- lished during seed maturation. Some key seed maturation genes have been reported to be regulated by alternative splicing （AS）. However, so far AS was described only for single genes and a comprehensive analysis of AS during seed maturation has been lacking. We investigated gene expression and AS during Arabidopsis thaliana seed development at a global level, before and after desiccation. Bioinformatics tools were developed to identify differentially spliced regions within genes. Our data suggest the importance and shows the peculiar features of AS during seed desiccation. We identified AS in 347o of genes that are expressed at both timepoints before and after desiccation. Most of these AS transcript variants had not been found before in other tissues. Among the AS genes some seed master regulators could be found. Interestingly, 6% of all expressed transcripts were not transcriptionally regulated during desiccation, but only modified by AS. We propose that AS should be more routinely taken into account in the analysis of transcriptomic data to prevent overlooking potentially important regulators.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common cause of infertility, requiring antioestrogen and, possibly, gonadotropin treatment for the induction of ovulation. However, patients suffering from this disease need long-term treatment since PCOS is associated with an increased risk of metabolic syndrome, hyperinsulinemia, oxidative stress, inflammation, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Allopathic treatment includes the continuous use of oral contraceptives, preferentially with complementary anti-androgen activity, and metformin. However, these treatments only partially correct all aspects of the disease, while carrying potential adverse effects per se. Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) offers opportunities for treatment through the use of nutraceuticals containing plant extracts, minerals, and vitamins with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and adaptogen capacity, as well as for correcting insulin resistance. Here we justify the formulation of the nutraceutical QALY® (Jona Pharma, Elversele, Belgium) that is composed of Ubiquinone Q10, the vitamins B9 and B12, the salts of zinc and selenium, the biomass of Haematococcus pluvialis, and the extracts of Mediterranean pine bark and of Rhodiola rosea. This can be complemented by phytotherapy with the extract of Momordica charantia plus alfa lipoic acid (Momordica plus®).
