Comparative transcriptome analysis of the mechanism difference in heat stress response between indica rice cultivar “IR64” and japonica cultivar “Koshihikari” at the seedling stage

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023
Heat stress (HS) has become a major abiotic stress in rice, considering the frequency and intensity of extreme hot weather. There is an urgent need to explore the differences in molecular mechanisms of HS tolerance in different cultivars, especially in ...

Preference Test of Plutella xylostella Larvae upon DMNT Treatment

Bio-Protocol, 2021
We describe a method to test the preference of insects in response to (3E)-4,8-dimethyl-1,3,7-nonatriene (DMNT). We use a device that includes a horizontal glass tube, two grooves (with activated carbon), air flow, rubber stoppers/tubes, transparent ...

Cisgenesis, a new tool for traditional plant breeding, should be exempted from the regulation on genetically modified organisms in a step by step approach [PDF]

, 2008
Modern potato breeding requires over 100,000 seedlings per new variety. Main reasons are (1) the increasing number of traits that have to be combined in this tetraploid vegetatively propagated crop, and (2) an increasing number of traits (e.g ...

Comparative transcriptome analysis reveals important roles of nonadditive genes in maize hybrid An’nong 591 under heat stress

BMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background Heterosis is the superior performance of F1 hybrids relative to their parental lines for a wide range of traits. In this study, expression profiling and heterosis associated genes were analyzed by RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) in seedlings of the ...

Efficiency of leaf rust resistance genes in Martonvásár

Plant Protection Science, 2002
The efficiency of leaf rust resistance genes in adult plants was studied on near-isogenic lines of Thatcher carrying known leaf rust resistance genes in the artificially inoculated leaf rust nursery of the Agricultural Research Institute of the Hungarian

Some Observations on Insecticide Resistance [PDF]

, 2017
A model for development of resistance to an insecticide in an insect population is presented. The rate of development of resistance increased with increases in the proportion of the breeding population exposed to the insecticide and with increases in the

Effects of 15-year straw incorporation on soil carbon composition and microbial community under wheat–maize rotation system in the Huang-Huai-Hai Plain

BMC Plant Biology
Background Straw incorporation is an effective agronomic practice for improving soil fertility and crop yield. In this study, we investigated the effects of the different straw incorporation modes on soil organic carbon components, enzyme activities, and
