Applicability of Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy to Predict Amylose Contents of Single-Grain Maize

Agronomy, 2021
Near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) and reference data were used to determine the amylose contents of single maize seeds to enable rapid, effective selection of individual seeds with desired traits.

Systematic analysis of the Rboh gene family in seven gramineous plants and its roles in response to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in maize

BMC Plant Biology, 2023
Background Plant respiratory burst oxidase homolog (Rboh) gene family produces reactive oxygen species (ROS), and it plays key roles in plant–microbe interaction.

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of multiple C2 domain and transmembrane region proteins in maize

BMC Plant Biology, 2022
Background Multiple C2 domain and transmembrane region proteins (MCTPs) are evolutionarily conserved and important signaling molecules. However, the MCTP gene family has not been comprehensively analyzed in maize.

Regulation of Drought and Salt Tolerance by OsSKL2 and OsASR1 in Rice

Rice, 2022
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

BMC Plant Biology, 2022
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.

Genome-wide analysis of 14-3-3 gene family in four gramineae and its response to mycorrhizal symbiosis in maize

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
14-3-3 proteins (regulatory protein family) are phosphate serine-binding proteins. A number of transcription factors and signaling proteins have been shown to bind to the 14-3-3 protein in plants, which plays a role in regulating their growth (seed ...

Specificity of resistance to oxidative stress [PDF]

Journal of Neurochemistry, 2002
AbstractTwo clonal nerve‐like cell lines derived from HT22 and PC12 have been selected for resistance to glutamate toxicity and amyloid toxicity, respectively. In the following experiments it was asked if these cell lines show cross‐resistance toward amyloid beta peptide (Aβ) and glutamate as well as toward a variety of additional neurotoxins ...

Identification and characterization of heat-responsive lncRNAs in maize inbred line CM1

BMC Genomics, 2022
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 ...

Plant Resistance to Abiotic Stresses [PDF]

Plants, 2019
Extreme weather events are one of the biggest dangers posed by climate breakdown. As the temperatures increase, droughts and desertification will render whole regions inhospitable to agriculture. At the same time, other regions might suffer significant crop losses due to floods.

Effect of N-fertilization, fungicide treatment, seed density and abiotic stress factors on the total ß-glucan content of six-rowed winter barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)

Journal of Applied Botany and Food Quality, 2013
In Germany, the first six-rowed waxy winter barley cultivar (cv.) `Waxyma` was registered in 2008. Besides changes in starch composition, waxy barley is rich in ß-glucans offering new applications in the food industry as ß-glucans reduce the blood ...
