Genome-Wide Functional Analysis of the Cotton Transcriptome by Creating an Integrated EST Database
(2011)A total of 28,432 unique contigs (25,371 in consensus contigs and 3,061 as singletons) were assembled from all 268,786 cotton ESTs currently available. Several in silico approaches [comparative genomics, Blast, Gene Ontology ... -
Genome-Wide Identification And Expression Analysis Of TCP Transcription Factors In Cotton
(East Carolina University, 2015)TCP proteins are plant-specific transcription factors known to perform a variety of physiological functions during plant growth and development. In the current study, we performed for the first time the comprehensive ... -
Genome-Wide Identification of ARF Transcription Factor Gene Family and Their Expression Analysis in Sweet Potato
(MDPI, 2021-08-30)Auxin response factors (ARFs) are a family of transcription factors that play an important role of auxin regulation through their binding with auxin response elements. ARF genes are represented by a large multigene family ... -
Genome-Wide Identification of R2R3-MYB Genes and Expression Analyses During Abiotic Stress in
(2016-03)The R2R3-MYB is one of the largest families of transcription factors, which have been implicated in multiple biological processes. There is great diversity in the number of R2R3-MYB genes in different plants. However, there ... -
Genome-Wide Meta-Analysis of Homocysteine and Methionine Metabolism Identifies Five One Carbon Metabolism Loci and a Novel Association of with Ischemic Stroke
(2014-03)Circulating homocysteine levels (tHcy), a product of the folate one carbon metabolism pathway (FOCM) through the demethylation of methionine, are heritable and are associated with an increased risk of common diseases such ... -
The genomes of two key bumblebee species with primitive eusocial organization
(2015-04-24)Background The shift from solitary to social behavior is one of the major evolutionary transitions. Primitively eusocial bumblebees are uniquely placed to illuminate the evolution of highly eusocial insect societies. ... -
Genomic Database Conundrum: Widespread Misannotation of rRNA Sequences as Protein Sequences
(East Carolina University, 2017-12-11)The genomics revolution introduced affordable technology capable of rapidly analyzing and comparing massive amounts of biological sequence data. Using the Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) program on the National ... -
GILLNET CALIBRATION FOR SPINY DOGFISH ABUNDANCE ASSESSMENT
(East Carolina University, 2013)Spiny dogfish (Squalus acanthias) is one of the most abundant species in the Northwest Atlantic however; the stocks collapsed in the late 1990s and were declared overfished April 3, 1998 by the Atlantic States Marine ... -
Government and Medicine: the evolution of the Chinese health care system
(2011-04-29)China’s diverse political history offers the unique opportunity to explore how a nation’s government impacts its approach to medicine and public health. The author found a correlation between Chinese government and health. ... -
Growth and Survival of Leiostomus Xanthurus (Spot) in Man-Made and Natural Wetlands
(East Carolina University, 1990-04)Growth and survival of the benthic feeding fish Leiosrotnus xanrhurus (‘spot”) was compared in man-made (Project Area 2) and natural oligohaline subtributaries of the Pamlico River Estuary. Experiments during 1984 defined ...
