The extreme sensitivity of the microsporogenesis process to moderately high or low temperatures is a major hindrance for tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) sexual reproduction and hence year-round cropping. Consequently, breeding parthenocarpy, namely, fertilization-independent fruit set, considered valuable goal especially maintaining sustainable agriculture in face global warming. A mutant capable setting high-quality seedless (parthenocarpic) was found following screen EMS-mutagenized...
This study investigated which adhesins of Pseudomonas aeruginosa interact with the glycolipid asialo GM1, using solid-phase binding and thin-layer chromatography assays. Radioiodinated pili flagella contaminated lipopolysaccharide (LPS) bound to glycolipid. When LPS was reduced acceptable levels in pilus flagellum samples, only specifically Commercial, radiolabeled as well whole bacteria strain ATCC 19660 also GM1. Binding specific, competitive, saturable. Organ cultures mouse eyes scanning...
Abstract Tomato fruit ripening is a complex metabolic process regulated by genetical hierarchy. A subset of this also modulated light signalling, as mutants encoding negative regulators phytochrome signal transduction show higher accumulation carotenoids. I n tomato, phytochromes are encoded multi‐gene family, namely PHYA , PHYB 1 2 PHYE and PHYF ; however, their contribution to development has not been examined. Using single phyA phyB1 phyB2 multiple phyAB1 phyB1B2 phyAB1B2 we compared the...
Summary miR160 adjusts auxin‐mediated development by post‐transcriptional regulation of the auxin response factors ARF 10 / 16 17 . In tomato, knockdown (sly‐miR160) suggested that it is required for auxin‐driven leaf blade outgrowth, but whether additional developmental events are adjusted sly‐miR160 not clear. Here, Sl MIR 160 genes and its s targets were edited CRISPR /Cas9 resulting in isolation loss‐of‐function mutants. addition, hypomorphic mutants accumulate variable reduced levels...
Nitric oxide (NO) plays a pivotal role in growth and disease resistance plants. It also acts as secondary messenger signaling pathways for several plant hormones. Despite its clear regulating development, fruit development is not known. In an earlier study, we described short root (shr) mutant of tomato, whose phenotype results from hyperaccumulation NO. The molecular mapping localized shr locus 2.5 Mb region chromosome 9. showed sluggish growth, with smaller leaves, flowers was less fertile...
Abstract An open prospective multicentre clinical trial was conducted in patients suffering from various ophthalmic disorders namely, conjunctivitis, conjunctival xerosis (dry eye), acute dacryocystitis, degenerative conditions (pterygium or pinguecula) and postoperative cataract with a herbal eye drop preparation (Ophthacare ® ) containing basic principles of different herbs which have been conventionally used the Ayurvedic system medicine since time immemorial. These include Carum...
Domestication of tomato has resulted in large diversity fruit phenotypes. An intensive phenotyping 127 accessions from 20 countries revealed extensive morphological traits. The traits clustered the into nine classes and identified certain promising lines having desirable pertaining to total soluble salts (TSS), carotenoids, ripening index, weight shape. Factor analysis morphometric data Tomato Analyzer showed that shape is a complex trait shared by several factors. 100% variance between...
Plant MICRORNA164 (miR164) plays diverse regulatory functions by post-transcriptional repression of certain NAM/ATAF/CUC-domain transcription factors. However, the involvement miR164 in fleshy fruit development and ripening remains poorly understood. Here, de novo prediction tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) MIR164 genes identified four (SlMIR164a-d), which SlMIR164d has an atypically long pre-miRNA. The roles expressed SlMIR164a, b, d were studied analysis their Clustered Regularly Interspaced...
Purpose: To study the effect of Ocimum sanctum (OS) on selenite-induced morphological and biochemical changes in isolated rat lenses as well cataract incidence pups. Methods: Transparent were divided into normal, selenite-only, four treated groups. Selenite-only group subjected to oxidative stress vitro by incorporating sodium selenite (100 μ M) culture medium. The OS (70, 140, 280, 560 g/ml) was studied levels reduced glutathione (GSH) thiobarbituric acid reacting substances (TBARS)...
The present study was undertaken to investigate the role of hypothalamic tripeptide l-prolyl-l-leucyl-glycinamide (PLG) and its conformationally constrained analog 3(<i>R</i>)-[(2(<i>S</i>)-pyrrolidinylcarbonyl)amino]-2-oxo-1-pyrrolidineacetamide (PAOPA) in modulating agonist binding human dopamine (DA) receptor subtypes using neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells stably transfected with respective cDNAs. Both PLG PAOPA enhanced [<sup>3</sup>H]<i>N</i>-propylnorapomorphine (NPA)...
MicroRNA172 (miR172) functions as a central regulator of flowering time and flower development by post-transcriptional repression APETALA2-LIKE transcription factors. In the model crop Solanum lycopersicum (tomato), miR172 family is still poorly annotated information about specific members lacking. Here, de-novo prediction tomato coding loci identified seven genes (SlMIR172a-g), that code for four unique species (sly-miR172). During reproductive development, sly-miR172s are differentially...
γ-Lactam peptidomimetic 2 of Pro-Leu-Gly-NH2 (PLG) was substituted at the 3-position with isobutyl, butyl, and benzyl moieties to give PLG peptidomimetics 3−5, respectively. These compounds were synthesized test hypothesis that attaching a hydrophobic moiety lactam ring mimic isobutyl side chain leucyl residue would increase dopamine receptor modulating activity such peptidomimetics. tested for their ability enhance binding [3H]-N-propylnorapomorphine receptors isolated from bovine striatal...
