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

A fast, efficient and high-throughput procedure involving laser microdissection and RT droplet digital PCR for tissue-specific expression profiling of rice roots [PDF]
Background In rice, the cortex and outer tissues play a key role in submergence tolerance. The cortex differentiates into aerenchyma, which are air-containing cavities that allow the flow of oxygen from shoots to roots, whereas exodermis suberification ...

Optimized Method for the Identification of Candidate Genes and Molecular Maker Development Related to Drought Tolerance in Oil Palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) [PDF]
Drought is a major constraint in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) production. As oil palm breeding takes a long time, molecular markers of genes related to drought tolerance characteristics were developed for effective selection.

Cloning of putative ureG genes from Glomus intraradices and urease activities in tobacco arbuscular mycorrhizal roots Clonagem de genes ureG putativos de Glomus intraradices e atividades de urease em raízes micorrízicas arbusculares de tabaco [PDF]
Even though the major benefit of arbuscular mycorrhizae is the increased uptake of phosphate from the soil solution and translocation to the plant, changes in the activity of enzymes involved in nitrogen (N) metabolism have been detected in mycorrhizal ...

In vitro fitness of SARS-CoV-2 variants as assessed by competition experiments followed by ddRT-PCR and whole genome sequencing. [PDF]
To develop a new method for reliable and rapid determination of the fitness of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern.Competition experiments between two SARS-CoV-2 variants were performed in cells of the upper (nasal human airway epithelium) and lower (Calu-3 cells) respiratory tracts followed by quantification of variant ratios by droplet digital reverse ...

Application of a ddRT-PCR to quantify seasonal influenza virus for viral isolation
Viral isolation in cell cultures has been regarded for decades as the “gold standard” for the laboratory diagnosis of influenza viral infections. Not all viral strains could be isolated from clinical samples.

DDRT-PCR approaches applied for preeminent results in the isolation of DETs from fish brain tissues [PDF]
Differential Display (DD) is a technique widely used in studies of differential expression. Most of these analyses, especially those involving fish species, are restricted to species from North America and Europe or to commercial species, as salmonids ...
