Ethical Challenges of Germline Genetic Enhancement. [PDF]

Front Genet, 2019
The new reproductive technologies have opened the door to different processes of germline genetic enhancement by which the characteristics of an individual according to the interests of the agents involved could be selected during its gestation. Although the initiative is apparently oriented towards developing individuals that would excel in society ...

Transcriptomics Analysis of Heat Stress-Induced Genes in Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) Seedlings

Horticulturae, 2021
Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) is one of the most economically important crops worldwide. Heat stress (HS) can significantly reduce pepper yield and quality.

Genetic enhancers [PDF]

WormBook, 2005
A genetic enhancer is a mutation in one gene that intensifies the phenotype caused by a mutation in another gene. The phenotype of the double mutant is much stronger than the summation of the single mutant phenotypes. The isolation of enhancers can lead to the identification of interacting genes, including genes that act redundantly with respect to ...

Transcriptome profiling of Capsicum annuum using Illumina- and PacBio SMRT-based RNA-Seq for in-depth understanding of genes involved in trichome formation

Scientific Reports, 2021
Trichomes, specialized epidermal cells located in aerial parts of plants, play indispensable roles in resisting abiotic and biotic stresses. However, the regulatory genes essential for multicellular trichrome development in Capsicum annuum L.

Proteomic Exploration of Porcine Oocytes During Meiotic Maturation in vitro Using an Accurate TMT-Based Quantitative Approach

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
The dynamic changes in protein expression are well known to be required for oocyte meiotic maturation. Although proteomic analysis has been performed in porcine oocytes during in vitro maturation, there is still no full data because of the technical ...

Community structure of fungal pathogens causing spikelet rot disease of naked oat from different ecological regions of China

Scientific Reports, 2021
Spikelet rot disease (SRD) is an emerging disease of the grain surface of naked oat in China that affects both grain yield and quality. The typical symptom is discoloration from the black structures of the causal fungi.

Identification of the Brassica Campestris ssp. Chinensis BcHY5 Gene Important for Hypocotyl Length

Agronomy, 2022
The primary domain/leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor, Elongated Hypocotyl (HY5), is crucial for the photomorphogenesis of seedlings. Here, we identified BcHY5 as a regulator of hypocotyl length from the non-heading Chinese cabbage (NHCC) variety

BcWRKY22 Activates BcCAT2 to Enhance Catalase (CAT) Activity and Reduce Hydrogen Peroxide (H₂O₂) Accumulation, Promoting Thermotolerance in Non-Heading Chinese Cabbage (Brassica campestris ssp. chinensis)

Antioxidants, 2023
WRKY transcription factors (TFs) participate in plant defense mechanisms against biological and abiotic stresses. However, their regulatory role in heat resistance is still unclear in non-heading Chinese cabbage.
