Common strategies in silkworm disease resistance breeding research.
The silkworm as one of the model organisms of invertebrates was the first economically important insect used for silk production in human history, and it has been put to good use throughout its domestication history.

Regulation of Drought and Salt Tolerance by OsSKL2 and OsASR1 in Rice
Abiotic stresses such as salinity and drought greatly impact the growth and production of crops worldwide. Here, a shikimate kinase-like 2 (SKL2) gene was cloned from rice and characterized for its regulatory function in salinity and drought tolerance ...

A maize heat shock factor ZmHsf11 negatively regulates heat stress tolerance in transgenic plants
Background Heat shock transcription factors (Hsfs) are highly conserved among eukaryote and always play vital role in plant stress responses. Whereas, function and mechanism of Hsfs in maize are limited.

Identification and characterization of heat-responsive lncRNAs in maize inbred line CM1
Background Frequent occurrence of extreme high temperature is a major threat to crop production. Increasing evidence demonstrates that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have important biological functions in the regulation of the response to heat stress ...
