Astaxanthin Supplementation Improves the Subsequent Developmental Competence of Vitrified Porcine Zygotes

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Cryopreservation of embryos has been confirmed to cause oxidative stress as a factor responsible for impaired developmental competence. Currently, astaxanthin (Ax) raises considerable interest as a strong exogenous antioxidant and for its potential in ...

Neoliberalising bioethics: Bias, enhancement and economistic ethics [PDF]

, 2008
In bioethics there is an ongoing debate about the ethical case for human enhancement through new biomedical technologies. In this debate there are both supporters and opponents of human enhancement technologies such as genetic improvements of cognitive ...

Proteomic Changes of Porcine Oocytes After Vitrification and Subsequent in vitro Maturation: A Tandem Mass Tag-Based Quantitative Analysis

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Cryopreservation of immature germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes is a promising strategy in pigs but still results in reduced oocyte quality due to inevitable cryodamages.

Discovery and characterization of differentially expressed soybean miRNAs and their targets during soybean mosaic virus infection unveils novel insight into Soybean-SMV interaction

BMC Genomics, 2022
Background Soybean mosaic virus (SMV) is one of the most devastating pathogens of soybean. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs (21–24 nucleotides) which are endogenously produced by the plant host as part of a general gene expression ...

Enhancement of the stability of genetic switches by overlapping upstream regulatory domains [PDF]

, 2003
We study genetic switches formed from pairs of mutually repressing operons. The switch stability is characterised by a well defined lifetime which grows sub-exponentially with the number of copies of the most-expressed transcription factor, in the regime

Functional Analysis of BcSNX3 in Regulating Resistance to Turnip Mosaic Virus (TuMV) by Autophagy in Pak-choi (Brassica campestris ssp. chinensis)

Agronomy, 2022
Sorting nexin protein is a class of highly conserved eukaryotic proteins containing the PX domain. Recent studies related to SNX in plants have focused on the regulation of abiotic stress processes, and there are few studies on the involvement of SNX in ...

iTRAQ proteomics reveals the regulatory response to Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria in resistant vs. susceptible pepper genotypes

Horticultural Plant Journal, 2022
Bacterial spot (BS) is a severe bacterial disease induced by Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria (Xcv), a pathogen that causes serious damage to pepper growth and yield. It is therefore important to study the mechanisms of pepper resistance to Xcv and

QTL Identification of the Insensitive Response to Photoperiod and Temperature in Soybean by Association Mapping

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2013
The insensitive response to photoperiod and temperature is an important quantitative trait for soybean in wide adaptation breeding. The natural variation in response to photoperiod and temperature was detected using 275 accessions of soybean [Glycine max
