The advent of fluorescence-based quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) has revolutionized the quantification gene expression analysis in many fields, including life sciences, agriculture, forensic science, molecular diagnostics, and medicine. While SYBR Green-based qPCR is most commonly-used platform due to its inexpensive nature robust chemistry, quantifying genes with low abundance or RNA samples extracted from highly restricted limited sources can be challenging because detection sensitivity...

Here, we report first comprehensive survey LEA gene family “Chinese Spring” wheat ( Triticum aestivum ). A total 179 TaLEA genes were identified T . classified into eight groups. All harbored conserved motif had few introns. belonging same group exhibited similar structures chromosomal locations. Our...
Abstract Seed germination and photoautotrophic establishment are controlled by the antagonistic activity of phytohormones gibberellins (GAs) abscisic acid (ABA). Here we show that Arabidopsis thaliana GAS2 (Gain Function in ABA-modulated Germination 2), a protein belonging to Fe-dependent 2-oxoglutarate dioxygenase superfamily, catalyzes stereospecific hydration GA 12 produce 16, 17-dihydro-16α-ol (DHGA ). We DHGA , C 20 -GA has an atypical structure compared known active GAs but can bind...
Auxin signalling plays an essential role in regulating plant development. response factors (ARFs), which are critical components of auxin signalling, modulate the expression early auxin-responsive genes by binding to factor elements (AuxREs). However, there has been no comprehensive characterization this gene family cotton. Here, we identified 56 GhARF assembled Gossypium hirsutum genome. This was divided into 17 subfamilies, and 44 members them were distributed across 21 chromosomes. GhARF6...
Abstract Background As functional proteins, dehydrins are found in many maturing seeds and vegetable tissues under adverse environmental conditions. However, the regulation of dehydrin expression remains unclear. Results In this study, a novel drought stress-related bHLH transcription factor, TabHLH49, was isolated from wheat cDNA library treated with cold stress by using yeast one-hybrid system. TabHLH49 protein possesses typical conserved domain is Myc-type factor. detected nucleus tobacco...
This study was conducted to determine the antifungal activity of metabolites from Streptomyces sp. 3-10, and purify identify metabolites. Meanwhile, taxonomic status strain 3-10 re-evaluated. The cultural filtrates in potato dextrose broth were extracted with ethyl acetate. resulting crude extract at 1 5 μg/ml inhibited growth 22 species 18 genera plant pathogenic fungi Oomycetes, accounting for 92% total 24 tested species, suggesting that it has a wide spectrum. Two compounds purified...
Summary RNA editing is a post‐transcriptional maturation process affecting organelle transcripts in land plants. However, the molecular functions and physiological roles of are still poorly understood. Using high‐throughput sequencing, we identified 692 sites Gossypium hirsutum mitochondrial genome. A total 422 were found coding regions all edits cytidine (C) to uridine (U) conversions. Comparative analysis showed that two Ghatp1 , C1292 C1415, had prominent difference efficiency between...
The gene encoding 9-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase 3 (
The C-repeat binding factor (CBF)/dehydration-responsive element (DREB1) belongs to a subfamily of the AP2/ERF (APETALA2/ethylene-responsive factor) superfamily, which can regulate many physiological and biochemical processes in plants, such as plant growth development, hormone signal transduction response abiotic stress. Although CBF/DREB1 family has been identified studies alfalfa are insufficient. In this study, 25 MsCBF genes were genome ("Zhongmu No. 4"). These distributed on...
Abstract Double-strand breaks (DSB) initiate meiotic recombination in a variety of organisms. Here we present genetic evidence that the mei-P22 gene is required for induction DSBs during prophase Drosophila females. Strong mutations eliminate crossing over and suppress sterility DSB repair-defective mutants. Interestingly, mutants can be restored to almost 50% wild-type by X irradiation. In addition, an antibody-based assay was used demonstrate are not formed This array phenotypes identical...
Abstract Aims/Introduction Diabetic hearts are more vulnerable to ischemia‐reperfusion injury (I/RI). The activation of nucleotide‐binding oligomerization domain‐like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome can mediate the inflammatory process, and hence might contribute myocardial I/RI. Activation autophagy eliminate excess reactive oxygen species alleviate I/RI in diabetes. present study aimed investigate whether diabetic through inhibition NLRP3 activation. Materials Methods A dose 65...
Zinc finger-homeodomain transcriptional factors (ZF-HDs), a kind of plant-specific transcription factor, play important roles in plant growth, development and various stress responses. In this study, the genome-wide analysis ZF-HD gene family was performed wheat. A total 37 TaZF-HD genes were identified T. aestivum classified into six groups. The results synteny showed that replication events contributed to expansion family. paralogous pairs with similar chromosomal locations different...
Salinization seriously threatens the normal growth of maize, especially at seedling stage. Recent studies have demonstrated that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play vital roles in regulation plant stress resistance. Here, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) on survival rate 300 maize accessions under salt treatment. A total 5 trait-associated SNPs and 86 candidate genes were obtained by GWAS. We RNA sequencing for 28 transcriptome libraries derived from 2 lines with contrasting...
The distribution and content of auxin within plant tissues affect a variety important growth developmental processes. Polar transport (PAT), mainly mediated by influx efflux transporters, plays vital role in determining maxima gradients plants. carrier PIN-FORMED (PIN) family is one the major protein families involved PAT.
