Fusarium verticillioides is a fungal pathogen, resulting in devastating diseases cereals, especially maize (Zea mays) and causing massive economic losses agriculture. F. infections the field are managed by chemical fungicides, mainly azoles which target cytochrome P450 lanosterol C-14α-demethylase (CYP51). Alternative to fungicide, this study evaluated potential of agroinfection-mediated Virus Induced Gene Silencing (VIGS) approach controlling pathogenicity, based on naturally occurring RNA...
Background Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important crops worldwide and its production faces pressing challenges, solution which demands genome information. However, large, highly repetitive hexaploid has been considered intractable to standard sequencing approaches. Therefore International Wheat Genome Sequencing Consortium (IWGSC) proposes map sequence on a chromosome-by-chromosome basis. Methodology/Principal Findings We have constructed physical long arm bread...
Geographical variation in soluble sugar concentrations seeds from oriental beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) trees of different origins Turkey was determined using high performance liquid chromatography. The results demonstrated that the most significant sugars, order importance, were sucrose, glucose, and fructose. All free sugars varied significantly (P < 0.05) within among populations. In general, both total levels tended to be higher northern populations compared southern ones. Cluster...
Ilıman iklim tahıllarından olan mısır ( Zea mays L.) bitkisi, üşüme stresine oldukça duyarlıdır ve optimum büyüme yüksek verim için nispeten sıcaklığa ihtiyaç duyar. Üşüme stresi, işlevlerini sekteye uğratmakla birlikte hücrenin redoks homeostazisini bozarak oksidatif strese yol açar. Bu sırada açığa çıkan reaktif oksijen türleri (ROS)'in ise düşük miktarlarda büyümeyi teşvik ettikleri de bilinmektedir. Buradan yola çıkarak, bu çalışmada, fidelerinin karşı yaprak cevabının oluşumunda sinyal...
Bitki biyoteknolojisi, modern genetik mühendisliği araçlarını kullanarak bitkilerin istenilen karakterlerinin iyileştirilmesini amaçlar. Son yıllarda, protein kodlamayan küçük RNA’lardan olan mikroRNA (miRNA) genlerinin yer aldığı, doğal gen ifadesini düzenleyici mekanizma RNA interferans (RNAi), bitki geliştirilmesinde faydalı bir araç olarak önem kazanmıştır. miRNA’ların, hemen bütün biyolojik ve metabolik işlevde anahtar role sahip oldukları ortaya konulmuştur. Hücresel yolakların miRNA...
Amaç:Çalışmamızda, fare mide fundus dokusunda L-sistein/ hidrojen sülfür (H2S) yolağının potasyum klorür (KCl) kasılma yanıtları üzerindeki etkisi ve bu etkide nitrik oksid (NO) siklooksijenaz (COX) yolaklarının olası katkılarının araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Gereç Yöntem:İzole şeritlerinde, kümülatif KCl (10-80 mM) ile oluşturulup, L-sistein (10 mM)’in incelendi. Ayrıca, H2S’in endojen olarak sentezine aracılık eden sistatyon beta-sentaz (CBS) enzim inhibitörü aminooksiasetik asid (AOAA; 1...
Maize (Zea mays L.) is a tropical crop and chilling temperatures (below 15 ºC) cause growth retardation yield losses. The development of chilling-tolerant maize varieties main goal plant breeders in order to produce under cool climates. Hybrids are more vigorous then their parents, including being tolerant diverse stresses. However, stress screening an obstacle. This study aims evaluate tolerance Turkish hybrids determine suitable indicators for selection the most hybrid. Nine were subjected...
