The Arabidopsis DELAY OF GERMINATION 1 gene affects ABSCISIC ACID INSENSITIVE 5 (ABI5) expression and genetically interacts with ABI3 during Arabidopsis seed development [PDF]
The seed expressed gene DELAY OF GERMINATION (DOG) 1 is absolutely required for the induction of dormancy. Next to a non-dormant phenotype, the dog1-1 mutant is also characterized by a reduced seed longevity suggesting that DOG1 may affect additional ...

Effects of parental temperature and nitrate on seed performance are reflected by partly overlapping genetic and metabolic pathways [PDF]
Seed performance is affected by the seed maturation environment, and previously we have shown that temperature, nitrate and light intensity were the most influential environmental factors affecting seed performance.

Trace Element Management in Rice
Trace elements (TEs) are vital for the operation of metabolic pathways that promote growth and structural integrity. Paddy soils are often prone to TE limitation due to intensive cultivation and irrigation practices.

Summary: Thermogenic brown and beige adipocytes counteract obesity by enhancing energy dissipation via uncoupling protein-1 (Ucp1). However, the effect of genetic variation on these cells, a major source of disease susceptibility, has been less well ...

Sugar signals and the control of plant growth and development [PDF]
Sugars have a central regulatory function in steering plant growth. This review focuses on information presented in the past 2 years on key players in sugar-mediated plant growth regulation, with emphasis on trehalose 6-phosphate, target of rapamycin ...

Evidence for ligninolytic activity of the ascomycete fungus Podospora anserina [PDF]
Background The ascomycete fungus Podospora anserina has been appreciated for its targeted carbohydrate-active enzymatic arsenal. As a late colonizer of herbivorous dung, the fungus acts specifically on the more recalcitrant fraction of lignocellulose and

Macroalgae Derived Fungi Have High Abilities to Degrade Algal Polymers [PDF]
Marine fungi associated with macroalgae are an ecologically important group that have a strong potential for industrial applications. In this study, twenty-two marine fungi isolated from the brown seaweed Fucus sp.

Summary: Androgens have a robust effect on skeletal muscles to increase muscle mass and strength. The molecular mechanism of androgen/androgen receptor (AR) action on muscle strength is still not well known, especially for the regulation of sarcomeric ...
