Abstract In rice (Oryza sativa), the presence of a dominant Badh2 allele encoding betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH2) inhibits synthesis 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2AP), potent flavor component in fragrance. By contrast, its two recessive alleles, badh2-E2 and badh2-E7, induce 2AP formation. was found to be transcribed all tissues tested except for roots, transcript detected at higher abundance young, healthy leaves than other tissues. Multiple lengths were detected, complete, full-length much...
Hybrid sterility is a major form of postzygotic reproductive isolation. Although isolation has been key issue in evolutionary biology for many decades wide range organisms, only very recently few genes were identified. The Asian cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) divided into two subspecies, indica and japonica. Hybrids between japonica varieties are usually highly sterile. A special group germplasm, referred to as wide-compatibility varieties, able produce fertile hybrids when crossed both...
Agrobacterium -mediated transformation is an essential tool for functional genomics studies and crop improvements. Recently developed ternary vector systems, which consist of a T-DNA compatible virulence ( vir ) gene helper plasmid (ternary helper), demonstrated that including additional into disarmed strains significantly improves delivery efficiency, enhancing plant transformation. Here, we report the development new thymidine auxotrophic to boost efficiency. Auxotrophic are useful in...
As a popular tool for gene function characterization and therapy, RNA interference (RNAi)-based silencing has been increasingly explored potential applications to control invasive species. At least two major hurdles exist when applying this approach plants: (1) the design screening of species- gene-specific biomacromolecules (i.e., gene-silencing agents or GSAs) made DNA, RNA, peptides that can suppress expression target genes efficiently, (2) delivery vehicle needed penetrate plant cell...
The MYB transcription factor (TF) superfamily, one of the largest gene superfamilies, regulates a variety physiological processes in plants. Although many superfamily genes have been identified plants, TFs Chinese jujube ( Ziziphus jujuba Mill.) not fully and characterized. Additionally, functions these remain unclear. In total, we 171 divided them into five subfamilies containing 99 R2R3-MYB subfamily, 58 MYB-related four R1R2R3-MYB 4R-MYB nine atypical subfamily. were 35 groups, C1–C35,...
Efficient genetic transformation is a prerequisite for rapid gene functional analyses and crop trait improvements. We recently demonstrated that new T-DNA binary vectors with NptII/G418 selection compatible helper plasmid can efficiently transform maize inbred B104 using our Agrobacterium-mediated method. In this work, we implemented the non-integrating Wuschel2 (Wus2) vector method tested its potential recalcitrant B73 editing. The Wus2 (NIW) vector-assisted uses two Agrobacterium strains:...
Understanding the response of mechanisms driving ecosystem services (ESs) to socioecological factors is imperative for regional sustainable management. However, previous studies ESs have focused more on degree and direction (positive negative) effects ES supply or supply–demand balance, while their nonlinear processes not been fully considered. In this study, a theoretical framework was developed through integrating land use/land cover data demand matrices with random forest models assess...
Tumor-specific antigens (TSAs) are crucial for tumor-specific immune response that reduces tumor burden and thus serve as important targets immunotherapy. Identification of novel TSAs can provide new strategies immunotherapies. In this study, we demonstrated the upstream open reading frame (uORF) RNF10 encodes an antigenic peptide (RNF10 uPeptide), capable eliciting a T cell-mediated anti-tumor response. We initially immunogenicity uPeptide in CT26 mouse model, by showing its epitope was...
Abstract The S5 locus regulates spikelet fertility of indica/japonica hybrid rice (Oryza sativa). There are three alleles at the locus, including an indica allele (S5i), a japonica (S5j), and wide-compatibility (S5n). This study analyzed molecular basis for S5-dependent reproductive isolation compatibility hybrids. Three were expressed extremely low levels, only in ovary. S5n was more similar to S5i both RNA protein expression profiles. not essential embryo sac development, although...
Sugarcane Mosaic Virus (SCMV) causes one of the most severe virus diseases in maize worldwide, resulting reduced grain and forage yield susceptible cultivars. In this study, two association panels consisting 94 inbred lines each, from China U.S., were characterized for resistance to isolates: SCMV-Seehausen SCMV-BJ. The population structure both was analyzed using 3072 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. Chinese U.S. panel subdivided into sub-populations, latter comprised Stiff...
The US Army is replacing traditional munitions with insensitive resistant to accidental detonation. Although the parent munition compound nitroguanidine (NQ) generally not acutely toxic at concentrations >1000 mg/L in aquatic exposures, products formed by intensive ultraviolet (UV) degradation resulted multiple-order of magnitude increases toxicity. A methylated congener NQ, 1-methyl-3-nitroguanidine (MeNQ), also being assessed for potential use explosive formulations; therefore, present...
Modern maize exhibits a significantly different phenotype than its wild progenitor teosinte despite many genetic similarities. Of the subspecies of Zea mays identified as teosinte, ssp. parviglumis is most closely related to domesticated maize. Understanding genes and their regulations can provide great insights into domestication process facilitate breeding for future crop improvement. However, protocol transformation, which essential gene functional analyses, not available in teosinte. In...
Translation initiation sites (TISs) of genes are the key points protein synthesis. Exact recognition TISs in eukaryotic is one most important tasks gene-finding algorithms. However, task has not been satisfactorily fulfilled up to present. Here, we propose a cooperatively scanning model for recognizing and first exons on basis structural characteristics multi-exon genes.The was employed scan 3' splicing genes, 132 mammalian gene sequences identified evaluate model. Accuracy exactly found...
With 2 tables Abstract Foxtail mosaic virus (FoMV) has been reported to have a broad range of hosts, including millet, sorghum, barley, and maize. FoMV‐H93, new strain FoMV which was isolated from sorghum in 1993, used inoculate the Intermated B73 × Mo17 (IBM) syn4 population for quantitative trait loci/locus (QTL) analysis. The parents IBM population, Mo17, are susceptible resistant, respectively, this isolate. A panel 94 recombinant inbred lines as mapping our study. Eight different QTL...
