MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and other endogenous small RNAs act as sequence-specific regulators of the genome, transcriptome, proteome in eukaryotes. The interrogation RNA functions requires an effective, widely applicable method to specifically block function. Here, we report development a highly effective technology that targets specific miRNAs or interfering for destruction Arabidopsis thaliana. We show expression short tandem target mimic (STTM), which is composed two sequences mimicking sites,...
Early maturity is one of the most important and complex agronomic traits in upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L). To dissect genetic architecture this agronomically trait, a population consisting 355 germplasm accessions was genotyped using specific-locus amplified fragment sequencing (SLAF-seq) approach, which subset 185 lines representative diversity among phenotypically characterized for six early four environments. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) conducted generalized linear model...
Abstract Background Previous molecular genetic studies of physiology and pigmentation sheep skin have focused primarily on a limited number genes proteins. To identify additional that may play important roles in coat color regulation, Illumina sequencing technology was used to catalog global gene expression profiles with white versus black color. Results There were 90,006 74,533 unigenes assembled from the reads obtained skin, respectively. Genes encoding for ribosomal proteins keratin...
The abscisic acid (ABA)-responsive element binding factors (ABFs) play important regulatory roles in multiple abiotic stresses responses. However, information on the stress tolerance functions of ABF genes sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas [L.] Lam) remains limited. In present study, we isolated and functionally characterized IbABF4 gene, which encodes an stress-inducible basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor. Sequence analysis showed that protein contains a typical bZIP domain five...
Compared with white-fleshed sweetpotato (WFSP), purple-fleshed (PFSP) is a desirable resource for functional food development because of the abundant anthocyanin accumulation in its tuberous roots. Some studies have shown that expression regulation mediated by miRNA plays an important role biosynthesis plants. However, few miRNAs and their corresponding functions related to roots been known.In this study, small RNA (sRNA) degradome libraries from WFSP (Xushu-18) PFSP (Xuzishu-3) were...
Obesity is a global chronic disease epidemic that attributed to the abnormal accumulation of lipids in adipose tissue. Astaxanthin (AST) from Haematococcus pluvialis, natural carotenoid, exhibits antioxidant, anti-lipogenic, anti-diabetic and other potent effects. Herein, we evaluated effect AST illuminate its efficacy mechanisms high-fat diet-fed mice. supplementation not only significantly decreased body weight lipid droplet liver but also modulated function serum levels. Lipidomic...
Understanding the genetic basis of node first fruiting branch (NFFB) improves early-maturity cotton breeding. Here we report QTL mapping on 200 F 2 plants and derivative 2:3 2:4 populations by genotyping sequencing (GBS). BC 1 population was constructed backcrossing one line with maternal parent JF914 used for BSA-seq further mapping. A total 1,305,642 SNPs were developed between parents GBS, 2,907,790 detected BSA-seq. high-density map containing 11,488 spanning 4,202.12 cM in length. 13...
Gossypium hirsutum L., or upland cotton, is an important renewable resource for textile fiber. To enhance understanding of the genetic basis cotton earliness, we constructed intra-specific recombinant inbred line population (RIL) containing 137 lines, and performed linkage map construction quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping. Using restriction-site associated DNA sequencing, a composed 6,434 loci, including 6,295 single nucleotide polymorphisms 139 simple sequence repeat was developed...
Plant-specific GRAS transcription factors regulate various biological processes in plant growth, development and stress responses. However, this important gene family was not fully characterized pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), an economically vegetable crop. Here, a total of 50 CaGRAS members were identified genome renamed by their respective chromosomal distribution. Genomic organization revealed that most genes (84%) have no intron. Phylogenetic analysis divided into 10 subfamilies, with each...
Abstract Background Plant carotenoids are essential for human health, having wide uses in dietary supplements, food colorants, animal feed additives, and cosmetics. With the increasing demand natural carotenoids, plant have gained great interest both academic industry research worldwide. Orange-fleshed sweetpotato ( Ipomoea batatas ) enriched with is an ideal feedstock producing carotenoids. However, limited information available regarding molecular mechanism responsible carotenoid...
Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) is a genetically intricate hexaploid crop. The purple-fleshed variety, enriched with anthocyanin pigments, an outstanding source for creating high-value functional products. Previous research on biosynthesis has primarily focused the above-ground plant parts at transcriptional level. However, regulatory mechanisms underlying accumulation in underground tuberous roots of sweetpotato remain largely unexplored. This study aimed to elucidate...
Multiple copies of genes encoding the catalytic subunit (c) protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) are commonly found in plants. For some these genes, expression is up-regulated under water stress. The aim this study was to investigate and characterization TaPP2Ac-1 from Triticum aestivum , evaluate effects on Nicotiana benthamiana response cDNA isolated wheat by silico identification RT-PCR amplification. Transcript levels were examined responding deficit. Copy numbers genomes subcellular...
Plant-specific NAC proteins comprise one of the largest transcription factor families in plants and play important roles plant development stress response. Gossypium hirsutum L. is a major source fiber, but its growth productivity are limited by many biotic abiotic stresses. In this study, domain gene GhNAC79 was functionally characterized detail, according to information about cotton genome sequences, it located on scaffold42.1, containing three exons two introns. Promoter analysis...
Abstract Background Engineering triacylglycerol (TAG) accumulation in vegetative tissues of non-food crops has become a promising way to meet our increasing demand for plant oils, especially the renewable production biofuels. The most important target modified this regard is diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) enzyme responsible final rate-limiting step TAG biosynthesis. Cyperus esculentus unique largely accumulating oleic acid-enriched oil its underground tubers. We speculated that DGAT...
