KASP: A Cognitive-Affective Methodology for Designing Serious Learning Games [PDF]

International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications, 2018
Many research studies agree on the existence of a close link between emotion and cognition. Actually, much research has demonstrated that students with learning disabilities (LD) experience emotional distress related to their difficulties. In this regard, this article proposes a new methodology of designing intelligent games called KASP Methodology, it’

Seedling resistance and chemical defenses against Psylliodes chrysocephala: the roles of seed age and sinapinic acid in Sinapis alba and Brassica napus

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is a major pest of winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus). We tested B. napus and Sinapis alba seedlings for feeding resistance and underlying chemical defenses. S. alba was least damaged, while metabolite profiles revealed resistance‐linked compounds, highlighting breeding potential for insect ...

KASP Genotyping as a Molecular Tool for Diagnosis of Cassava-Colonizing Bemisia tabaci [PDF]

Insects, 2020
Bemisia tabaci is a cryptic species complex that requires the use of molecular tools for identification. The most widely used approach for achieving this is the partial sequencing of the mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase I gene (COI). A more reliable single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based genotyping approach, using Nextera restriction-site ...

The Size, Demography, and Distribution of Cambodia's Largest Elephant Population Revealed Using Traditional Genetic Tools and a Novel SNP Panel

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Asian elephant population parameters were assessed using microsatellite, SNP, and sex determination DNA markers. This represents one of the first studies in mainland Asia to demonstrate that integrating microsatellite and SNP data enhances genotyping success from degraded fecal samples, increases the number of useable samples and markers, and ...

Scale development and utilization of universal PCR-based and high-throughput KASP markers specific for chromosome arms of rye (Secale cereale L.)

BMC Genomics, 2020
Background Rye (Secale cereale L., 2n = 2x = 14, RR), a relative of common wheat, is a large gene resource pool for wheat improvement. Accurate and convenient identification of the rye chromatin in wheat background will facilitate the transfer and ...

RNA‐Seq analysis revealed differentially expressed genes linked to seed size variation in sainfoin

Grassland Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Sainfoin is a perennial forage legume with many desirable characteristics such as easy to establish, bloat‐free trait for grazing ruminants and providing pollinator habitat and biological nitrogen fixation to soil. However, adoption of this species is often hindered by high seed cost associated with its larger seed size compared to other ...

VERNALIZATION2 alters early tiller development in a facultative spring hexaploid bread wheat

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary An extended period of cold exposure enables the process of vernalization in winter cereals and is important for the synchronised timing of the floral transition. The cereal‐specific floral repressor VERNALIZATION2 (VRN2) has an integral role in vernalization, yet this locus remains poorly characterised in facultative spring hexaploid wheat ...

An α/β‐Hydrolase GmABHD6 Controls Seed Oil Content and Yield in Soybean

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed oil content is a key trait in soybean, yet its genetic basis remains largely unresolved. Here, we identify GmABHD6, an α/β‐hydrolase domain‐containing gene, as the causal gene underlying a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) for seed oil content on chromosome 16.

A High Soluble‐Fibre Allele in Wheat Encodes a Defective Cell Wall Peroxidase Responsible for Dimerization of Ferulate Moieties on Arabinoxylan

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increasing dietary fibre (DF) intake is an important target to improve health. An attractive strategy for this is to increase DF in wheat which is derived principally from the endosperm cell wall polysaccharide arabinoxylan (AX). The water‐extractable form of this (WE‐AX) accounts for most soluble dietary fibre (SDF), which is believed to ...

Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR (KASP) Markers for Potato: An Effective Tool for Increased Genetic Gains

Agronomy, 2021
Potato virus Y (PVY) and Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary that causes potato late blight (LB), pose serious constraints to cultivated potatoes due to significant yield reduction, and phenotyping for resistance remains challenging.
