Validation of a novel associative transcriptomics pipeline in Brassica oleracea: identifying candidates for vernalisation response

BMC Genomics, 2021
Background Associative transcriptomics has been used extensively in Brassica napus to enable the rapid identification of markers correlated with traits of interest.

Orientation of biological cells using plane-polarized Gaussian beam optical tweezers [PDF]

Journal of Modern Optics 50(10), 1581-1590 (2003), 2003
Optical tweezers are widely used for the manipulation of cells and their internal structures. However, the degree of manipulation possible is limited by poor control over the orientation of trapped cells. We show that it is possible to controllably align or rotate disc shaped cells - chloroplasts of Spinacia oleracea - in a plane polarised Gaussian ...

Biochemical characterization of digestive proteases of Pieris brassicae (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) feeding on cruciferous hosts [PDF]

نامه انجمن حشره‌شناسی ایران, 2017
Pieris brassicae is one of the most serious pests of cultivated crucifers in the world. The present experiment is intended to determine the proteolytic digestion of fifth instar larvae and the effects of four cruciferous hosts to P. brassicae nutritional

The effect of LED light quality on the carotenoid metabolism and related gene expression in the genus Brassica

BMC Plant Biology, 2023
Background New vegetable production systems, such as vertical farming, but also well-established in-door production methods led to the implementation of light emitting diodes (LEDs).

Comprehensive analyses of the annexin (ANN) gene family in Brassica rapa, Brassica oleracea and Brassica napus reveals their roles in stress response

Scientific Reports, 2020
Annexins (ANN) are a multigene, evolutionarily conserved family of calcium-dependent and phospholipid-binding proteins that play important roles in plant development and stress resistance.

Genome Triplication Leads to Transcriptional Divergence of FLOWERING LOCUS C Genes During Vernalization in the Genus Brassica

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The genus Brassica includes oil crops, vegetables, condiments, fodder crops, and ornamental plants. Brassica species underwent a whole genome triplication event after speciation between ancestral species of Brassica and closely related genera including ...

Genome-wide comparative analysis of 20 miniature inverted-repeat transposable element families in Brassica rapa and B. oleracea. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs) are ubiquitous, non-autonomous class II transposable elements. Here, we conducted genome-wide comparative analysis of 20 MITE families in B. rapa, B. oleracea, and Arabidopsis thaliana.

Large-scale gene expression alterations introduced by structural variation drive morphotype diversification in Brassica oleracea

Nature Genetics
Brassica oleracea, globally cultivated for its vegetable crops, consists of very diverse morphotypes, characterized by specialized enlarged organs as harvested products. This makes B. oleracea an ideal model for studying rapid evolution and domestication.

A Study on the Wetting Properties of Broccoli Leaf Surfaces and their Time Dependent Self-Healing After Mechanical Damage [PDF]

, 2019
Plants are protected from the elements by a complex hierarchical epicuticular wax layer which has inspired the creation of super-hydrophobic and self-cleaning surfaces. Although many studies have been conducted on different plant wax systems to determine the mechanisms of water repulsion hardly any have studied the recovery of the epicuticular wax ...

Conversion of cDNA differential display results (DDRT-PCR) into quantitative transcription profiles [PDF]

BMC Genomics 6/51 (2005) 1-12, 2014
Background: Gene expression studies on non-model organisms require open-end strategies for transcription profiling. Gel-based analysis of cDNA fragments allows to detect alterations in gene expression for genes which have neither been sequenced yet nor are available in cDNA libraries. Commonly used protocols are cDNA Differential Display (DDRT-PCR) and
