Suppression of microRNA159 impacts multiple agronomic traits in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

BMC Plant Biology, 2017
Background microRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators in plant growth and development. miR159 is a conserved miRNA among different plant species and has various functions in plants. Studies on miR159 are mostly done on model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana.

Genome-Wide Association Study Discovered Favorable Single Nucleotide Poly Morphisms and Candidate Genes Associated with Ramie (Boehmeria Nivea L.) Colloidal Matters

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2023
Ramie (Boehmeria nivea L.) bast fiber is one of the most ancient natural fibers, which is used for textile only after degumming. Hemicellulose, pectin, and hydrotrope are the main colloidal matters in ramie fiber, which are removed when degumming ...

Improving saccharification of ramie stalks by synergistic effect of in-house cellulolytic enzymes consortium

AMB Express, 2022
The high cost of cellulase is one of the main obstacles hindering the large-scale biorefining of lignocellulosic biomass. Therefore, developing efficient method for preparation of cellulase is promising.

L‐aspartate oxidase provides new insights into fumarate reduction in anaerobic darkness in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.

Genome-wide association study of Northern corn leaf blight (NCLB) resistance using temperate and subtropical maize recombinant inbred lines

BMC Genomics
Background Northern corn leaf blight (NCLB) is a foliar disease in maize caused by the fungus Setosphaeria turcica, which severely impacts maize production. Genetic studies can help mitigate the effects of NCLB by developing maize resistant varieties and
