Unraveling aspects of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens mediated enhanced production of rice under biotic stress of Rhizoctonia solani

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Rhizoctonia solani (RS) is a necrotrophic fungi causing sheath blight in rice leading to substantial loss in yield. Excessive and persistent use of preventive chemicals raises human health and environment safety concerns.

Defined Glycan Ligands for Detecting Rare l-Sugar-Binding Proteins. [PDF]

J Am Chem Soc
Most cells are decorated with distinct sugar sequences that can be recognized by carbohydrate-binding proteins (CBPs), such as antibodies and lectins. While humans utilize ten monosaccharide building blocks, bacteria biosynthesize hundreds of activated sugars to assemble diverse glycans.

Genomics Insights Into High‐Latitude Adaptation of Tibetan Macaques

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tibetan macaques exhibit unique adaptations to cold, high‐latitude environments, including shortened tails and enhanced fat storage. Genomic analyses reveal a species‐specific TBX6 mutation linked to tail reduction and selection on lipid metabolism genes.

Characteristics of C-4 photosynthesis in stems and petioles of C-3 flowering plants [PDF]

, 2002
Most plants are known as C-3 plants because the first product of photosynthetic CO2 fixation is a three-carbon compound. C-4 plants, which use an alternative pathway in which the first product is a four-carbon compound, have evolved independently many ...

Morphoanatomy and biochemistry of seeds of Dicypellium caryophyllaceum (Lauraceae) at different stages of fruit maturation [PDF]

Rodriguésia
The “pau-cravo” (Dicypellium caryophyllaceum) is a tree species of the family Lauraceae, native to the Amazon rainforest. As a result of overexploitation during the last few centuries, D. caryophyllaceum has become extremely rare in Brazil.

The Pleiotropic Effects of Beneficial Mutations of Adapted Escherichia coli Populations [PDF]

, 2014
Mutations that improve fitness in one environment can often be beneficial, deleterious, or neutral in alternative environments. When a single mutation effects fitness in multiple environments, it is said to be a pleiotropic, which can have important ...
