The genetic variability of the duration leaf senescence during grain filling has been shown to affect both carbon and nitrogen acquisition.In particular, maintaining green leaves possibly leads increased yield, but its associated effect on protein concentration not studied.The aim this study was dissect factors contributing correlations observed at phenotypic level between filling, concentration, yield in winter wheat.With view, an analysis quantitative trait locus (QTL) co-locations for...
The typically intense carotenoid accumulation in cultivated orange-rooted carrots (Daucus carota) is determined by a high protein abundance of the rate-limiting enzyme for biosynthesis, phytoene synthase (PSY), as compared with white-rooted cultivars. However, contrast to other accumulating systems, orange are characterized unusually levels α-carotene addition β-carotene. We found similarly increased leaves This has also been observed Arabidopsis thaliana lut5 mutant carrying defective...
Accumulated in large amounts carrot, carotenoids are an important product quality attribute and therefore a major breeding trait. However, the knowledge of carotenoid accumulation genetic control this root vegetable is still limited. In order to identify variants linked character, we performed association mapping study with candidate gene approach. We developed original unstructured population broad basis avoid pitfall false positive detection due stratification. genotyped 109 SNPs located...
Carotenoids are important secondary metabolites involved in plant growth and nutritional quality of vegetable crops. These pigments highly accumulated carrot root, but knowledge about the impact environmental factors on their accumulation is limited. The purpose this work was to investigate variations carotenoid leaves roots. In work, carrots were grown during two contrasting periods maximize bioclimatic differences. leaves, chlorophyll contents lower less favorable growing conditions,...
Gryllus bimaculatus were infected with an intracellular prokaryote, Rickettsiella grylli, then reared either at fixed temperatures or in a temperature gradient (22-36 degrees C) where they could select the preferred. Only 50% of insects 28 C less survived after 20 days, against 75% those 30 more and 90% gradient. Examination smears insect tissue showed that all (100%) between 23 29 had developed strong rickettsial infection. 20% signs Body crickets gradient, recorded using thin...
Background and Objectives BAFF APRIL stimulate the growth of multiple myeloma (MM) cells. share two receptors – TACI BCMA binds to a third receptor, BAFF-R. We previously reported that gene expression is bimodal in 18 human MM cell lines (HMCL), being either present or absent, unlike expressed on all HMCL. BAFF-R lacking. good indicator BAFF-binding receptor In primary cells, level correlates with characteristic phenotypic pattern: TACIhigh cells resemble bone marrow plasma TACIlow...
Background Carrot is a vegetable cultivated worldwide for the consumption of its root. Historical data indicate that root colour has been differentially selected over time and according to geographical areas. Root pigmentation depends on relative proportion different carotenoids white, yellow, orange red types but only internally purple one. The genetic control carotenoid content might be partially associated with biosynthetic genes. Carotenoid isomerase (CRTISO) emerged as regulatory step...
The genomes of Junonia coenia densonucleosis virus (JcDNV) and Galleria mellonella (GmDNV) were analysed by restriction endonuclease analysis Southern blot hybridization. A total 37 33 sites mapped on JcDNV GmDNV DNA, respectively. BglI, HaeII BstEII site-specific for BglII ClaI DNA. two had nearly identical maps several endonucleases hybridization using a genomic probe indicated extensive DNA sequence homologies spanning the entire length genomes. Symmetrical cleavage sites, mapping at...
Association mapping becomes one of the major genetic methods used to understand control complex traits. This method allows use natural populations with high resolution thanks ancestral recombinations. Resolution is given by linkage disequilibrium (LD) extend. But false positives can be detected when phenotypic traits are correlated underlying population stratification at non causal loci. Knowledge structure then a preliminary step for association studies. Here we investigated in cultivated...
