PROTOCOL FOR A MIXED METHODS PROCESS EVALUATION OF A HYBRID IMPLEMENTATION-EFFECTIVENESS TRIAL OF A SCALED-UP WHOLE-SCHOOL PHYSICAL ACTIVITY PROGRAM FOR ADOLESCENTS: PHYSICAL ACTIVITY 4 EVERYONE (PA4E1)

Protocol for a mixed methods process evaluation of a hybrid implementation-effectiveness trial of a scaled-up whole-school physical activity program for adolescents: Physical Activity 4 Everyone (PA4E1)

Abstract Background Physical Activity 4 Everyone (PA4E1) is a physical activity program for secondary schools located in low-socioeconomic areas.Over a 24-month period, schools in the program arm of a cluster randomised controlled trial (n = up to 38 schools) will receive a multi-component implementation support strategy to embed the seven school p

Genome-wide characterization and expression analysis of the CINNAMYL ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASE gene family in Triticum aestivum

Abstract Background CINNAMYL ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASE (CAD) catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of cinnamaldehydes into cinnamyl alcohols and is a key enzyme found at the final step of the monolignol pathway.Cinnamyl alcohols and their conjugates are subsequently polymerized in the secondary cell wall to form lignin.CAD genes are typically encoded
