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.

Genetic Enhancement and the Child’s Right to an Open Future

Phenomenology and Mind, 2020
In this paper, I analyze the ethical implications of genetic enhancement within the specific framework of the “child’s right to an open future” argument (CROF). Whilst there is a broad ethical consensus that genetic modifications for eradicating diseases

Quantum vs classical genetic algorithms: A numerical comparison shows faster convergence [PDF]

2022 IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence (SSCI), Singapore, 947-954 (2022), 2022
Genetic algorithms are heuristic optimization techniques inspired by Darwinian evolution. Quantum computation is a new computational paradigm which exploits quantum resources to speed up information processing tasks. Therefore, it is sensible to explore the potential enhancement in the performance of genetic algorithms by introducing quantum degrees of

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 ...

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 ...

Cytological studies on meiosis and male gametophyte development in autotetraploid cucumber

Biologia Plantarum, 2010
With improved staining and chromosome preparation techniques, meiosis of pollen mother cells (PMCs) and male gametophyte development in autotetraploid cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) was studied to understand the correlation between chromosomes behaviour ...
