Evolution of substrate specificity in a retained enzyme driven by gene loss. [PDF]

, 2017
The connection between gene loss and the functional adaptation of retained proteins is still poorly understood. We apply phylogenomics and metabolic modeling to detect bacterial species that are evolving by gene loss, with the finding that ...

Exogenous Melatonin Attenuates Post-Harvest Decay by Increasing Antioxidant Activity in Wax Apple (Syzygium samarangense)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Wax apple is one of the most popular tropical fruit but undergoes serious post-harvest decay during storage, transportation and marketing. Melatonin (MT) plays important roles in plant growth, development and stress responses.

RNA-Seq and iTRAQ reveal multiple pathways involved in storage root formation and development in sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.)

BMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is the sixth most important food crop in the world. The formation and development of storage roots in sweet potato is a highly complicated and genetically programmed process. However, the underlying mechanisms

Identification and Functional Characterization of Plant MiRNA Under Salt Stress Shed Light on Salinity Resistance Improvement Through MiRNA Manipulation in Crops

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Salinity, as a major environmental stressor, limits plant growth, development, and crop yield remarkably. However, plants evolve their own defense systems in response to salt stress.

The Cyclic AMP Receptor Protein, Crp, Is Required for the Decolorization of Acid Yellow 36 in Shewanella putrefaciens CN32

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Shewanella shows good application potentials in the decolorization and detoxification of azo dye wastewater. However, the molecular mechanism of decolorization is still lacking. In this study, it was found that Shewanella putrefaciens CN32 exhibited good
