The Kynurenine 3-Monooxygenase Encoding Gene, BcKMO, Is Involved in the Growth, Development, and Pathogenicity of Botrytis cinerea

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
A pathogenic mutant, BCG183, was obtained by screening the T-DNA insertion library of Botrytis cinerea. A novel pathogenicity-related gene BcKMO, which encodes kynurenine 3-monooxygenase (KMO), was isolated and identified via thermal asymmetric ...

Study on the effect of co‐plasticization of post‐industrial starch for high‐impact thermoplastic starch development

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
High‐impact thermoplastic starch blends through the co‐plasticization methodology. Abstract This study analyzed the effect of employing plasticized or co‐plasticized post‐industrial starch in developing PBAT‐based thermoplastic starch (TPS) blends. In this work, the post‐industrial wheat starch was co‐plasticized with glycerol‐urea, glycerol‐citric ...
