Polyketide synthases (PKSs) catalyze biosynthesis of a diverse family pharmaceutically important secondary metabolites. Bioinformatics analysis sequence and structural features PKS proteins plays crucial role in discovery new natural products by genome mining, as well design novel metabolites biosynthetic engineering. The availability the crystal structures various catalytic docking domains, mammalian fatty acid synthase module prompted us to develop SBSPKS software which consists three...

The APETALA2/ethylene-responsive element binding factor (AP2/ERF) family is one of the largest transcription (TF) families in plants that includes four major sub-families, namely AP2, DREB (dehydration responsive binding), ERF (ethylene factors) and RAV (Related to ABI3/VP). AP2/ERFs are known play significant roles various plant processes including growth development biotic abiotic stress responses. Considering this, a comprehensive genome-wide study was conducted foxtail millet (Setaria...

The availability of well-validated informative co-dominant microsatellite markers and saturated genetic linkage map has been limited in foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.). In view this, we conducted a genome-wide analysis identified 28 342 repeat-motifs spanning 405.3 Mb genome. trinucleotide repeats (∼48%) was prevalent when compared with dinucleotide (∼46%). Of the microsatellites, 21 294 (∼75%) primer pairs were successfully designed, total 15 573 physically mapped on 9 chromosomes...

The NAC proteins represent a major plant-specific transcription factor family that has established enormously diverse roles in various plant processes. Aided by the availability of complete genomes, several members this have been identified Arabidopsis, rice, soybean and poplar. However, no comprehensive investigation presented for recently sequenced, naturally stress tolerant crop, Setaria italica (foxtail millet) is famed as model crop bioenergy research. In study, we 147 putative...

Foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.) is a tractable experimental model crop for studying functional genomics of millets and bioenergy grasses. But the limited availability genomic resources, particularly expressed sequence-based genic markers significantly impeding its genetic improvement. Considering this, we attempted to develop EST-derived-SSR (eSSR) utilize them in germplasm characterization, cross-genera transferability silico comparative mapping. From 66,027 foxtail EST sequences 24,828...

Abstract Background Adaptations to different habitats across the globe and consequent genetic variation within rice have resulted in more than 120,000 diverse accessions including landraces, which are vital resources for agronomic quality traits. In India landraces of states West Bengal, Assam, Mizoram, Manipur Nagaland worthy candidates assessment. Keeping above view, present study was conducted with aim (i) calculate distances among 83 collected from these along 8 check (total 91...

Generating genomic resources in terms of molecular markers is imperative breeding for crop improvement. Though development and application microsatellite large-scale was reported the model foxtail millet, no such study conducted intron-length polymorphic (ILP) markers. Considering this, we developed 5123 ILP markers, which 4049 were physically mapped onto 9 chromosomes millet. BLAST analysis expressed sequence tags (ESTs) suggested function ∼71.5% ESTs grouped them into 5 different...
