Abscisic acid (ABA)-driven stomatal regulation reportedly evolved after the divergence of ferns, during early evolution seed plants approximately 360 million years ago. This hypothesis is based on observation that stomata certain fern species are unresponsive to ABA, but exhibit passive hydraulic control. However, ABA-induced closure was detected in some mosses and lycophytes. Here, we observed a number ABA signaling membrane transporter protein families diversified over evolutionary history...
Ferns appear in the fossil record some 200 Myr before angiosperms. However, as angiosperm-dominated forest canopies emerged Cretaceous period there was an explosive diversification of modern (leptosporangiate) ferns, which thrived low, blue-enhanced light beneath angiosperm canopies. A mechanistic explanation for this transformative event ferns has remained elusive. We used physiological assays, transcriptome analysis and evolutionary bioinformatics to investigate a potential connection...
The presence of genetically modified (GM) protein in the endosperm is important information for public when considering biological safety transgenic rice. To limit expression GM proteins to rice green tissues, we developed a Cre-lox gene switch using two cassettes named KEY and LOCK. contains nuclear-localized Cre recombinase driven by green-tissue-specific promoter rbcS. LOCK Nos terminator (NosT), which used block interest (GOI), bounded loxP sites. When are pyramided into hybrid rice,...
In bright beer, haze formation is a serious quality problem, which reduces beer storage and shelf life. this study, haze-active proteins, alcohol chill ability, α-amylase activity, the contents of total polyphenol, protein its fractions amino acids were analysed using 23 barley accessions to investigate relationship between components in malt character beer. The results showed that there largely genotypic variations for all examined traits among accessions. However, was no significant...
The nematode
Limit dextrinase inhibitor (LDI) inhibits starch degradation in barley grains during malting because it binds with limit (LD). There is a wide genetic variation LDI synthesis and inactivation grain development germination. However, the control of activity remains little understood. In this study, association analysis was performed on 162 Tibetan wild accessions by using activity, 835 Diversity Arrays Technology (DArT) markers single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) gene HvLDI encoding LDI....
In bright beer, haze formation is a serious quality problem, degrading beer and reducing its shelf life. The of barley (Hordeum vulgare L) malt, as the main raw material for brewing, largely affects colloidal stability beer. this study, genetic mechanism factors affecting in was studied. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis alcohol chill (ACH) carried out using Franklin/Yerong double haploid (DH) population. One QTL, named qACH, detected ACH, it located on position about 108 cM chromosome...
In order to create novel germplasm resources for breeding heat tolerant variety, we transferred a dominant allele OsHTAS, previously characterized and cloned from high-temperature local variety HT54, which was collected the rice production area of southern China, into high- temperature sensitive intermediate line HT13 through six rounds successive backcross by using marker-assisted selection. The molecular analysis showed that recovery genetic background resultant near isogenic (NIL), MHT13,...
Phosphite (PHI) has been used in the management of Phytophthora diseases since 1970s.We assessed effect PHI on controlling incidence Xanthomonas oryzae pv.oryzae and Pyricularia grisea. As a result, application significantly inhibited diseases. To clarify molecular mechanism underlying this, transcriptome study was employed. In total, 2064 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified between control treatment. The key DEGs could be classified into phenylpropanoid biosynthesis...
Protein aggregation of α-synuclein (αS) is a genetic and neuropathological hallmark Parkinson's disease (PD). Studies in the model nematode Caenorhabditis elegans suggested that variation αS depends on background. However, which genes modifiers underlie individual differences pathology remains unknown. To study genotypic-phenotypic relationship aggregation, we constructed Recombinant Inbred Line (RIL) panel derived from cross between genetically divergent strains C. NL5901 SCH4856, both...
Forage production and quality of five tropical grass accessions (Guimu-1 hybrid elephant (PG1), Mulato II (M II), Ubon paspalum (PU), (PH) Reyan 11 (PR11)) two legume (Reyan 5 stylo (SR5) (SU)) were evaluated in a field experiment subtropical area with hot summers cold winters Guangxi, China. Three forage stubble cover managements: no (CK), dry mass (MC) plastic (PC) applied at the end summer period to evaluate tolerance accession survival over winter. Photosynthesis measurements taken from...
Abstract Protein aggregation of α-synuclein (αS) is a genetic and neuropathological hallmark Parkinson’s disease (PD). Studies in the model nematode Caenorhabditis elegans suggested that variation αS depends on background. However, which genes modifiers underlie individual differences pathology remains unknown. To study genotypic-phenotypic relationship aggregation, we constructed Recombinant Inbred Line (RIL) panel derived from cross between genetically divergent strains C. NL5901 SCH4856,...
