Development of Computational Tools and Resources for Cotton microRNA Analysis
(East Carolina University, 2014)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are an extensive class of small regulatory RNAs which regulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional levels. miRNAs target genes for mRNA cleavage or translation inhibition based on the complementary ...
Identification, characterization, and gene expression analysis of nucleotide binding site (NB)-type resistance gene homologues in switchgrass
(2016-11-08)
Abstract
Background
Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) is a warm-season perennial grass that can be used as a second generation bioenergy crop. However, foliar fungal ...
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 ...
Deep Sequencing Reveals Transcriptome Re-Programming of Cells to the Elicitation with Methyl Jasmonate
(2013)
Background
Plant cell culture represents an alternative source for producing high-value secondary metabolites including paclitaxel (Taxol®), which is mainly produced in Taxus and has been widely used in cancer chemotherapy. ...
