Callose plays an important role in pollen development flowering plants. In rice, 10 genes encoding putative callose synthases have been identified; however, none of them has functionally characterized. this study, a rice Glucan Synthase-Like 5 ( GSL5 ) knock-out mutant was isolated that exhibited severe reduction fertility. Pollen viability tests indicated the abnormal while embryo sac normal. Further, -RNA interference transgenic plants phenocopied gsl5 mutant. The RNA expression found to...
Summary Objectives To describe the spatiotemporal diffusion of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic in mainland China, and to analyse spatial pattern SARS transmission from Beijing epicentre its neighbouring areas. Methods Probable cases occurring between November 2002 May 2003 China were compiled different sources geo‐coded into a geographical information database based on onset location. Spatial analyses including kernel density estimation, statistical tracking performed...
To document and verify the number of cases severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) during 2002-2003 epidemic in mainland China.
Rice is a facultative short-day plant (SDP), and the regulatory pathways for flowering time are conserved, but functionally modified, in Arabidopsis rice. Heading date 1 (Hd1), an ortholog of CONSTANS (CO), key regulator that suppresses under long-day conditions (LDs), promotes (SDs) by influencing expression florigen gene 3a (Hd3a). Another regulator, Early heading (Ehd1), evolutionarily unique with no orthologs Arabidopsis, which acts as activator both SD LD promoting rice genes Hd3a RICE...
Root development and function have central roles in plant adaptation to the environment. The modification of root traits has additionally been a major driver crop performance since green revolution; however, molecular underpinnings regulatory programmes defining response environmental stress remain largely unknown. Single-cell reconstruction gene provides an important tool understand cellular phenotypic variation complex tissues their endogenous stimuli. While single-cell transcriptomes...
Summary Organ size is a major agronomic trait that determines grain yield and biomass production in crops. However, the molecular mechanisms controlling organ size, especially legumes, are poorly understood. Using forward genetic approaches Tnt1 insertion mutant population of model legume Medicago truncatula , we identified SMALL LEAF AND BUSHY1 ( SLB1 ), which required for control lateral branching. Loss function led to reduced leaf flower but increased branch formation M. . encodes an...
SUMMARY The worldwide spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) raised questions about the risk importation such infection, in particular by air travel. Entry screening was implemented some countries although poor evidence on its effectiveness is reported. We developed a model to estimate number imported SARS cases between regions, using 2003 epidemic data apply this for two scenarios: from Beijing Frankfurt and Hong Kong London. back-calculated individuals’ time infection built...
Summary We tracked the effective reproductive number ( R t ) over time to assess impact of important public health control measures in five most SARS‐affected geographic areas mainland China. As soon as Chinese authorities gained full all activities combat SARS, decreased dramatically and consistently below one. Many that seriously affected life were implemented afterwards, i.e., when epidemic was already dying down.
1,225 healthy day-old avian broiler chicks were used to investigate the effects of activated charcoal (AC, made from willow tree), hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicates (HSCAS) and esterified glucomannan (EGM) supplementation on performance, blood profiles meat characteristics when less moldy or corn was included formulate seven isocaloric isonitrogenous diets: Positive Control (less diet, PC), PC+2% AC, Negative (moldy corn, NC), NC+0.05%EGM, NC+0.1% EGM, NC+0.5% HSCAS NC+1% AC.PC+2% AC...
Summary Objective To quantify the transmissibility of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in hospitals mainland China and to assess effectiveness control measures. Methods We report key epidemiological details three major hospital outbreaks SARS China, estimate evolution effective reproduction number each during course outbreaks. Results The successive infected 41, 99 91 people whom 37%, 60% 70% were staff. These cases resulted 33 deaths, five which occurred In a multivariate logistic...
Abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, and low temperature cause–losses in rice production worldwide. The emergence of transgenic technology has enabled improvements the drought resistance plants helped avert crop damage due to stress. Selectable marker genes conferring antibiotics or herbicides have been widely used identify genetically modified plants. However, use markers limited public acceptance organisms. Marker-free materials (i.e., those containing a single foreign gene) may be...
Plant leaves exhibit differentiated patterns of photosynthesis rates under diurnal light regulation. Maize show a single-peak pattern without photoinhibition at midday when the intensity is maximized. This mechanism contributes to highly efficient in maize leaves. To understand molecular basis this process, an isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ)-based proteomics analysis was performed reveal dynamic proteins related photosynthetic reactions. Steady, double-peak...
Abstract The amino acids in Tibetan medicine herb Meconopsis quintuplinervia from sixteen different populations on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) with derivative reagent 10-ethyl acridine-2-sulfonyl chloride (EASC). Among all acids, phenylalanine was most abundant, followed glycine, tryptophan, and lysine. These results suggest that use of EASC provided a fast sensitive method for acid detection concentrations...
Abstract Flightin is a protein in flight muscles and crucial for the capacity. also has been proposed as with deep ancestry functions outside of muscles. However, functional molecular characterization flightin achieved so far mainly Drosophila . Here, we cloned ( Bd‐flightin ) gene tested its expression function Bactrocera dorsalis , an important migratory pest. Phylogenetic analysis based on orthologs revealed that divergence consistent taxonomic classification insects. Motif indicated...
