Gene duplication and paleopolyploidy in soybean and the implications for whole genome sequencing [PDF]
Background Soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr., is a well documented paleopolyploid. What remains relatively under characterized is the level of sequence identity in retained homeologous regions of the genome.

Identification of Conserved Aquilegia Coerulea MicroRNAs and Their Targets [PDF]
Aquilegia is an emerging model organism that is phylogenetically intermediate between the core eudicot and monocot models, Arabidopsis and Oryza. In this study, we have used a comparative genomics approach to identify 45 Aquilegia microRNAs that comprise

Transfructosylation of the β-fructofuranosidase I from Arthrobacter sp. K-l was investigated. This enzyme catalyzed both transfructosylation and hydrolytic action, when it was incubated with sucrose alone. But in the presence of a suitable acceptor such as D-xylose and lactose, the enzyme catalyzed mostly transfructosylation and transferred the ...

From root to fruit: RNA-Seq analysis shows that arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis may affect tomato fruit metabolism [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) establishes a beneficial symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. The formation of the mycorrhizal association in the roots leads to plant-wide modulation of gene expression.

The cold responsive mechanism of the paper mulberry: decreased photosynthesis capacity and increased starch accumulation [PDF]
Representative gel images of proteins from the control and treatment. 2-DE was performed using 800 μg of total protein and 11 cm immobilized dry strips with linear pH gradients from 4 to 7. Gels were stained with CBB R-250.

Xylooligosaccharides Enhance Lettuce Root Morphogenesis and Growth Dynamics
Enhancing root development is pivotal for boosting crop yield and augmenting stress resilience. In this study, we explored the regulatory effects of xylooligosaccharides (XOSs) on lettuce root growth, comparing their impact with that of indole-3-butyric ...

Genome-wide transcriptome study in wheat identified candidate genes related to processing quality, majority of them showing interaction (quality x development) and having temporal and spatial distributions [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The cultivated bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) possesses unique flour quality, which can be processed into many end-use food products such as bread, pasta, chapatti (unleavened flat bread), biscuit, etc. The present wheat varieties require

Genome-scale analyses of health-promoting bacteria: probiogenomics [PDF]
The human body is colonized by an enormous population of bacteria (microbiota) that provides the host with coding capacity and metabolic activities. Among the human gut microbiota are health-promoting indigenous species (probiotic bacteria) that are ...

RhVI1 is a membrane-anchored vacuolar invertase highly expressed in Rosa hybrida L. petals [PDF]
Invertases are a widespread group of enzymes that catalyse the conversion of sucrose into fructose and glucose. Plants invertases and their substrates are essential factors that play an active role in primary metabolism and in cellular differentiation ...
