Abstract Flow control is the attempt to favorably modify a flow field’s characteristics compared how would have developed naturally along surface. Natural flyers and swimmers exploit maintain maneuverability efficiency under different flight environmental conditions. Here, we review strategies in birds, insects, aquatic animals, as well engineered systems inspired by them. We focus mainly on passive local devices which utility for application small uncrewed aerial vehicles (sUAVs) with...

The objective of this study was to reveal the genetic variation in agricultural traits, phytochemicals, and antioxidant activity 172 Korean black landraces (KBSLs) establish relationship among them. evaluation three traits (days 50% flowering, maturity, 100-seed weight), six phytochemicals (delphinidin-3-glucoside, cyaniding-3-glucoside,...

CT83, a cancer-testis antigen, has emerged as potential biomarker and therapeutic target in various cancers. This study explores its expression role cervical adenocarcinoma progression prognosis. CT83 was analyzed cancer cell lines using quantitative PCR Western blotting. Functional assays demonstrated that overexpression (OE) promotes proliferation, migration, invasion, epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) cells while also upregulating PD-L1 expression. Conversely, knockdown reduced...

Amaranthus species are widely used as grain and leaf vegetables around the world potential dietary sources of antioxidants phenolic compounds. In this study, we examined variation in total flavonoid contents, polyphenol antioxidant activities among 120 accessions nine species. The activity DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) amaranth ranged from 1.1 (A. tricolor) to 75.2 tricolor mg ascorbic acid equivalents (AAE)/g 2018, 8.5 68.8 dubius) AAE/g 2019. ABTS (2,2′-azinobis...

Ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer), commonly known as Korean or Asian ginseng, is a perennial herb native to Korea and China. There has been limited research effort analyze the genetic diversity population structure of germplasm because its growth habits. In present study, conserved in National Agrobiodiversity Center (NAC) South were analyzed provide basic data for future preservation breeding resources. Seventeen simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers used assess 1109 accessions. Among...

Wheat (Triticum spp.) has been an important staple food crop for mankind since the beginning of agriculture. The genus Triticum L. is composed diploid, tetraploid, and hexaploid species, majority which have not yet discriminated clearly, hence their phylogeny classification remain unresolved. Genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) easy affordable method that allows us to generate genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. In this study, we used GBS obtain SNPs covering all seven...

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is an important staple food and economic crop in many countries. It of critical importance to understand the genetic diversity population structure for effective collection, conservation, utilization potato germplasm. Thus, objective present study was investigate germplasm conserved National Agrobiodiversity Center (NAC) South Korea provide basic data future preservation breeding resources. A total 24 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were used assess 482...

Ionizing radiation ( IR ) affects gene expression from plant genomes. To monitor the genome‐wide transcriptional changes induced by three types of , we used rice Affymetrix GeneChip microarray to identify genes that are up‐ or down‐regulated gamma rays GAs ), cosmic CRs and ion beams IBs ). The overall patterns in seedlings generated seeds exposed were similar but differed for exposure. Expression profiles involved metabolic pathways cellular response identified using MapMan analysis. This...

A high-salt environment represents environmental stress for most plants. Those that can grow and thrive in such an must have membrane transport systems respond effectively. Plant roots absorb Na+ from the soil, plant maintain homeostasis to survive salt stress. major mechanism by which salt-tolerant plants adapt is through modulation of ion genes. We subjected a population rice mutagenesis, identified lines with both single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) genes altered responses Primers...

Recently, within the Fabaceae family, Vicia genus has been recognized for its vital role in sustainable agriculture. species are economically important grain and forage crops. However, presence of complex morphological characteristics makes identification recognition native difficult. In this study, possibility using DNA barcoding regions (ITS2, matK, rbcL) to distinguish among 19 taxa (59 accessions) found South Korea was evaluated. The sequence alignment analysis revealed considerable...

Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is an economically important horticultural crop with abundant morphological and genetic variability. Complex variations exist even among melon varieties remain unclear to date. Therefore, unraveling the variability three different varieties, muskmelon (C. subsp. melo), makuwa L. var. makuwa), cantaloupes cantalupensis), could provide a basis for evolutionary research. In this study, we attempted systematic approach genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS)-derived single...

Watermelon is an economically important vegetable fruit worldwide. The objective of this study was to conduct a genetic diversity 68 watermelon accessions using single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Genotyping by sequencing (GBS) used discover SNPs and assess population structure STRUCTURE discriminant analysis principal components (DAPC) in accessions. Two groups watermelons were used: 1) highly utilized 41 at the National Agrobiodiversity Center (NAC) Rural Development Administration...

Little millet, Panicum sumatrense Roth ex Roem. & Schult., is an important cultivated species under the tribe Paniceae, sub-family Panicoideae and family Poaceae. In this study, for first time we sequenced complete chloroplast (cp) genome of P. to investigate their phylogenetic relationship in The cp sequence 139,384 bp length with 38.6% overall GC content exhibits a typical quadripartite structure comprising one pair inverted repeats (22,723 bp) separated by small single-copy region (12,583...

Mutation breeding techniques have been used to induce new genetic variations and improve agronomic traits in soybean. In Korea, the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) has unique radiation facilities plant mutations conducting soybean mutation programmes since mid-1960s. Until now, KAERI developed five mutant cultivars exhibiting early maturity, high yield seed-coat colour change. this paper, we review these terms of how successfully characteristics through programmes. A number...
