Transcriptome assembly in Suaeda aralocaspica to reveal the distinct temporal gene/miRNA alterations between the dimorphic seeds during germination

BMC Genomics, 2017
Dimorphic seeds from Suaeda aralocaspica exhibit different germination behaviors that are thought to be a bet-hedging strategy advantageous in harsh and unpredictable environments.

A New Approach to Modify Plant Microbiomes and Traits by Introducing Beneficial Bacteria at Flowering into Progeny Seeds

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
The microbial component of healthy seeds – the seed microbiome – appears to be inherited between plant generations and can dynamically influence germination, plant performance, and survival.

Moringa oleifera Seeds and Oil: Characteristics and Uses for Human Health

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2016
Moringa oleifera seeds are a promising resource for food and non-food applications, due to their content of monounsaturated fatty acids with a high monounsaturated/saturated fatty acids (MUFA/SFA) ratio, sterols and tocopherols, as well as proteins rich ...

Adaptive seeds tame genomic sequence comparison.

Genome Research, 2011
The main way of analyzing biological sequences is by comparing and aligning them to each other. It remains difficult, however, to compare modern multi-billionbase DNA data sets.
