Scion on a stock producing siRNAs of potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) attenuates accumulation of the viroid. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Plants can attenuate the replication of plant viruses and viroids by RNA silencing induced by virus and viroid infection. In higher plants, silencing signals such as small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) produced by RNA silencing can be transported ...

From Many, One: Genetic Control of Prolificacy during Maize Domestication [PDF]
PLoS Genetics 2013 9(6): e1003604, 2013 A reduction in number and an increase in size of inflorescences is a common aspect of plant domestication. When maize was domesticated from teosinte, the number and arrangement of ears changed dramatically. Teosinte has long lateral branches that bear multiple small ears at their nodes and tassels at their tips.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Spot‐14 and Spot‐14R play distinct roles in regulating metabolism in brown and beige adipocytes. While both influence lipid and glucose pathways, Spot‐14 uniquely controls thermogenic gene expression. This dual regulation balances energy storage and heat production, highlighting potential therapeutic targets for obesity and metabolic disorders. Spot 14

Cryopreservation of seeds of blue waterlily (Nymphaea caerulea) using glutathione adding plant vitrification solution, PVS+ [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Nymphaea caerulea is a valuable freshwater aquatic plant, not only because of its ornamental value but also its extractions for chemical and medical uses. It is necessary to store its seeds as backup resources. Cryopreservation is the reliable, cost-effective method for long-term preservation of botanical genetic banks, especially for recalcitrant ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present the cellular transcription‐coupled Flp‐nick system allowing the introduction of a Top1‐mimicking cleavage complex (Flpcc) at a Flp recognition target site within a controllable LacZ gene. LacZ transcription leads to the collision of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) with Flpcc, and this causes RNAPII stalling, ubiquitination, and degradation.

Machine Learning Methods to Analyze Arabidopsis Thaliana Plant Root Growth [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 One of the challenging problems in biology is to classify plants based on their reaction on genetic mutation. Arabidopsis Thaliana is a plant that is so interesting, because its genetic structure has some similarities with that of human beings. Biologists classify the type of this plant to mutated and not mutated (wild) types.

HydroPower Plant Planning for Resilience Improvement of Power Systems using Fuzzy-Neural based Genetic Algorithm [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 This paper will propose a novel technique for optimize hydropower plant in small scale based on load frequency control (LFC) which use self-tuning fuzzy Proportional- Derivative (PD) method for estimation and prediction of planning. Due to frequency is not controlled by any dump load or something else, so this power plant is under dynamic frequency ...
