To identify senescence‐associated genes (SAGs) in rice leaves, senescence was induced by transferring seedlings into darkness. Senescence up‐regulated cDNAs were obtained PCR‐based subtractive hybridization. Among 14 SAG clones characterized, 11 found to be associated with both dark‐induced and natural leaf senescence. Three only The possible physiological roles of these SAGs during are discussed.
<title>Abstract</title> <bold>Background:</bold> Asian cultivated rice is one of the most important crops in world. According to archaeological studies, carbonated grains Taiwan were quite small before 3,300 BP, but seeds from excavated sites became much larger later on. In current study, we explore seed size differences by using genome resequencing, followed allele mining several seed- and adaptation-related genes propose early movement, selection adaptation landraces. <bold>Results:</bold>...
Rice (Oryza sativa) is one of the world's most important crops. researchers make extensive use insertional mutants for study gene function. Approximately half a million flanking sequence tags from rice mutant libraries are publicly available. However, relationship between genotype and phenotype very weak. Transgenic plant assays have been used frequently complementation, overexpression or antisense analysis, but changes caused by callus growth, Agrobacterium incubation medium, virulence...
Genetic data for traditional Taiwanese (Formosan) agriculture is essential tracing the origins on East Asian mainland of Austronesian language family, whose homeland generally placed in Taiwan. Three main models Neolithic have been proposed: coastal north China (Shandong); central (Yangtze Valley), and south China. A combination linguistic agricultural evidence helps resolve this controversial issue. We report botanically informed fieldwork vocabulary Formosan aborigines, which converges...
Proteins abundant in seeds during the late stages of development, embryogenesis (LEA) proteins, are associated with desiccation tolerance. More than 100 group I LEA genes, also termed Em have been identified from plants, bacteria and animals. The wide distribution indicates functional importance these genes. In present study, we characterized a novel Em-like gene, OsLEA1a rice (Oryza sativa). encoded protein has an N-terminal sequence similar to that other plant proteins but lacks 20-mer...
Rice (Oryza sativa) is one of the most important crops in world. Several rice insertional mutant libraries are publicly available for systematic analysis gene functions. However, tagging efficiency these resources-the relationship between genotype and phenotype-is very low. We used whole-genome sequencing to analyze a T-DNA-tagged transformant from Taiwan Insertional Mutants (TRIM) resource. The phenomics records M0028590, TRIM lines, revealed three phenotypes-wild type, large grains,...
Abstract Background Cultivation of rice ( Oryza sativa ) started in Taiwan about 5000 years ago. Here we studied changes the population during this period by using archaeological, morphological, genetic and genomic strategies. We grain size carbonized from excavated sites. also revealed variations landraces collected indigenous villages that arrived southern China 400 Some modern varieties were used current study. Results The very early cultivated must have been temperate japonica type,...
Abstract Background The early-ripening rice races are important because they may escape droughts, avoid floods and reduce the growing period. Thus, could be cultivated for at least two cropping seasons each year in sub-tropical or tropical areas. According to Song Dynasty history, many accessions were brought China from Champa Kingdom, these lines drought-resistant non-photoperiod–sensitive. Here, we address impact of on production, which subtype belong to. Results We performed a...
