Simple and efficient isolation of plant genomic DNA using magnetic ionic liquids

Plant Methods, 2022
Background Plant DNA isolation and purification is a time-consuming and laborious process relative to epithelial and viral DNA sample preparation due to the cell wall. The lysis of plant cells to free intracellular DNA normally requires high temperatures,

Stalk architecture, cell wall composition, and QTL underlying high stalk flexibility for improved lodging resistance in maize

BMC Plant Biology, 2020
Background Stalk fracture caused by strong wind can severely reduce yields in maize. Stalks with higher stiffness and flexibility will exhibit stronger lodging resistance. However, stalk flexibility is rarely studied in maize.

Barley haplotyping using biplex deoxyribozyme nanomachine

Sensors and Actuators Reports, 2022
Direct sequencing is the gold standard for genome haplotyping, while PCR is used for detection of limited number of genetic variations. However, these methods are not suitable for fast low-cost in-field testing of plant specimens.

Is Hyperdermium Congeneric with Ascopolyporus? Phylogenetic Relationships of Ascopolyporus spp. (Cordycipitaceae, Hypocreales) and a New Genus Neohyperdermium on Scale Insects in Thailand

Journal of Fungi, 2022
During surveys of insect pathogenic fungi (IPF) in Thailand, fungi associated with scale insects and plants were found to represent five new species of the genus Ascopolyporus in Cordycipitaceae. Their macroscopic features resembled both Hyperdermium and

The significance of cysteine synthesis for acclimation to high light conditions

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Situations of excess light intensity are known to result in the emergence of reactive oxygen species that originate from the electron transport chain in chloroplasts. The redox state of glutathione and its biosynthesis contribute importantly to the plant’

Ribosomal DNA heterochromatin in plants [PDF]

Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 2005
The aim of this review is to integrate earlier results and recent findings to present the current state-of-the-art vision concerning the dynamic behavior of the ribosomal DNA (rDNA) fraction in plants. The global organization and behavioral features of rDNA make it a most useful system to analyse the relationship between chromatin topology and gene ...

Comprehensive analysis of Arabidopsis expression level polymorphisms with simple inheritance

Molecular Systems Biology, 2009
In Arabidopsis thaliana, gene expression level polymorphisms (ELPs) between natural accessions that exhibit simple, single locus inheritance are promising quantitative trait locus (QTL) candidates to explain phenotypic variability.

A breakthrough in the efficiency of contact DNA insecticides: rapid high mortality rates in the sap-sucking insects Dynaspidiotus britannicus Comstock and Unaspis euonymi Newstead

Journal of Plant Protection Research, 2020
In this short communication describing experiments carried out on the larvae of two insects, Unaspis euonymi Comstock (feeding on Euonymus japonicus Thunb.) and Dynaspidiotus britannicus Newstead (feeding on Laurus nobilis L.), we evaluate for the ...

Differences in the Response to DNA Double-Strand Breaks between Rod Photoreceptors of Rodents, Pigs, and Humans

Cells, 2020
Genome editing (GE) represents a powerful approach to fight inherited blinding diseases in which the underlying mutations cause the degeneration of the light sensing photoreceptor cells of the retina.

Plant DNA Repair and Agrobacterium T−DNA Integration [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Agrobacterium species transfer DNA (T−DNA) to plant cells where it may integrate into plant chromosomes. The process of integration is thought to involve invasion and ligation of T-DNA, or its copying, into nicks or breaks in the host genome. Integrated T−DNA often contains, at its junctions with plant DNA, deletions of T−DNA or plant DNA, filler DNA ...
