The genus Oryza is a model system for the study of molecular evolution over time scales ranging from few thousand to 15 million years. Using 13 reference genomes spanning species tree, we show that despite large-scale chromosomal rearrangements rapid diversification mirrored by lineage-specific emergence and turnover many novel elements, including transposons, potential new coding noncoding genes. Our resolves controversial areas phylogeny, showing complex history introgression among...
The iPlant Collaborative (iPlant) is a United States National Science Foundation (NSF) funded project that aims to create an innovative, comprehensive, and foundational cyberinfrastructure in support of plant biology research (PSCIC, 2006). developing uniquely enables scientists throughout the diverse fields comprise address Grand Challenges new ways, stimulate facilitate cross-disciplinary research, promote computer science interactions, train next generation on use education. Meeting...
Abstract We have analyzed gene regulation of the Lhc supergene family in poplar (Populus spp.) and Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) using digital expression profiling. Multivariate analysis tissue-specific, environmental, developmental patterns was employed to characterize four rarely expressed genes, Lhca5, Lhca6, Lhcb7, Lhcb4.3. Those genes high levels under different conditions tissues than abundantly Lhca1 4 Lhcb1 6 that code for 10 major types higher plant light-harvesting proteins....
Nuclear genomes are exposed to a continuous influx of DNA from mitochondria and plastids. We have characterized the structure ∼750 kb organelle DNA, distributed among 13 loci, in nuclear Arabidopsis rice. These segments large migrated nucleus quite recently, allowing us reconstruct their evolution. Two general types insertions coexist; one is by long sequence stretches that colinear with other type consists mosaics often derived both plastids mitochondria. The levels divergence two exclude...
Salicylic acid (SA) is a small phenolic molecule with hormonal properties, and an essential component of the immune response. SA exerts its functions by interacting protein targets; however, specific cellular components modulated critical for signal transduction are largely unknown. To uncover activities targeted SA, we probed Arabidopsis microarrays functional analog SA. We demonstrate that thimet oligopeptidases (TOPs) constitute class SA-binding enzymes. Biochemical evidence demonstrated...
A report on research that explicates three models of pedagogical practice underpin and characterize inquiry instruction in a course-based experience.
To date, variation in nectar chemistry of flowering plants has not been studied detail. Such exerts considerable influence on pollinator–plant interactions, as well flower traits that play important roles the selection a plant for visitation by specific pollinators. Over past 60 years Aquilegia genus used key model speciation studies. In this study, we defined metabolomic profiles samples two species, A. Canadensis and pubescens. We identified total 75 metabolites were classified into six...
To decipher the transcriptomic regulation of on-tree fruit maturation in pear cv. 'Abate Fetel', a RNA-seq transcription analysis identified 8939 genes differentially expressed across four harvesting stages. These were grouped into 11 SOTA clusters based on their transcriptional pattern, which three included upregulated while other represented by downregulated genes. Fruit ripening was furthermore investigated after 1 month postharvest cold storage. The most important variation firmness,...
Abstract Speciation can be described as a reduction, and the eventual cessation, in ability to interbreed. Thus, determining how gene flow differs within between nascent species illuminate relative stage taxa have attained speciation process. Aquilegia formosa A. pubescens are fully intercompatible, yet occur different habitats flowers specialized for pollination by hummingbirds hawkmoths, respectively. Using 79 SNP loci, we genotyped nearly 1000 individuals from populations of both close...
The iPlant Collaborative is a 5-year, National Science Foundation-funded effort to develop cyberinfrastructure address series of grand challenges in plant science. second these the Genotype-to-Phenotype project, which seeks provide tools, form web-based Discovery Environment, for understanding developmental process from DNA full-grown plant. Addressing this challenge requires integration multiple data types that may be stored formats, with varying levels standardization. Providing...
Background and objectives: Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) offers patients the possibility of having a healthy baby free chromosomal or disorders. The present study focuses on application PGT for located in Northern Greece, investigating their clinical outcomes, motives, overall physical emotional experience during treatment, association with socioeconomic background. Materials Methods: Couples who underwent monogenic condition (PGT-M, n = 19 cycles) aneuploidy (PGT-A, 22 participated...
Background: While the clinical application of SII-ONCO-Bacillus Calmette–Guerin (BCG) for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is well established in Greece, there a lack real-world data on its effectiveness and safety. This retrospective, observational, multicenter, chart-review study aims to provide real-life safety SII-ONCO-BCG patients with intermediate- high-risk NMIBC. Methods: From January 2016 December 2023, medical records from six hospital centers were reviewed adult...
The Tubby-like proteins (TLPs) gene family is a group of transcription factors found in both animals and plants. In this study, we identified twelve B. distachyon TLPs, divided into six groups based on conserved domains evolutionary relationships. We predicted cis-regulatory elements involved light, hormone, biotic abiotic stresses. expression patterns response to light hormones revealed that BdTLP3, 4, 7, 14 are responses, BdTLP1 ABA responses. Furthermore, BdTLP2, 9, 13 expressed...
Abstract Cloud Computing refers to distributed computing platforms that use virtualization software provide easy access physical infrastructure and data storage, typically administered through a Web interface. Cloud‐based provides powerful servers, with specific virtual hardware configurations, while eliminating the initial capital cost of expensive computers reducing ongoing operating costs system administration, maintenance contracts, power consumption, cooling. This eliminates significant...
There is a lot of disparity in the distribution underrepresented minorities STEM fields. Several factors have been attributed to this disparity, including race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic background, and sense not belonging. The goal study was examine student perception STEM, feeling belongingness, importance research their future career goals before after taking courses participating data science workshops seminars. results show that although students understand experience, most cases...
