Genome sequencing and analysis of the paclitaxel-producing endophytic fungus NRRL 62431
(2014)
Background
Paclitaxel (Taxol™) is an important anticancer drug with a unique mode of action. The biosynthesis of paclitaxel had been considered restricted to the Taxus species until it was discovered in Taxomyces andreanae, ...
Contribution and distribution of inorganic ions and organic compounds to the osmotic adjustment in response to salt stress
(2015-09)
The mechanism by which plants cope with salt stress remains poorly understood. The goal of this study is to systematically investigate the contribution and distribution of inorganic ions and organic compounds to the osmotic ...
Boron Stress Responsive MicroRNAs and Their Targets in Barley
(2013)
Boron stress is an environmental factor affecting plant development and production. Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been found to be involved in several plant processes such as growth regulation and stress responses. In ...
A cotton miRNA is involved in regulation of plant response to salt stress
(2016-01)
The present study functionally identified a new microRNA (microRNA ovual line 5, miRNVL5) with its target gene GhCHR from cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). The sequence of miRNVL5 precursor is 104 nt long, with a well developed ...
De Novo Transcriptome Assembly and Comparative Analysis Elucidate Complicated Mechanism Regulating Astragalus chrysochlorus Response to Selenium Stimuli
(2015-10)
Astragalus species are medicinal plants that are used in the world for years. Some Astragalus species are known for selenium accumulation and tolerance and one of them is Astragalus chrysochlorus, a secondary selenium ...
Comprehensive analysis of TCP transcription factors and their expression during cotton () fiber early development
(2016-02)
TCP proteins are plant-specific transcription factors implicated to perform a variety of physiological functions during plant growth and development. In the current study, we performed for the first time the comprehensive ...
MicroRNA Expression Analysis in the Cellulosic Biofuel Crop Switchgrass () under Abiotic Stress
(2012)
Switchgrass has increasingly been recognized as a dedicated biofuel crop for its broad adaptation to marginal lands and high biomass. However, little is known about the basic biology and the regulatory mechanisms of gene ...
Effects of Aluminum Oxide Nanoparticles on the Growth, Development, and microRNA Expression of Tobacco ()
(2012)
Nanoparticles are a class of newly emerging environmental pollutions. To date, few experiments have been conducted to investigate the effect nanoparticles may have on plant growth and development. It is important to study ...
