Genome-wide functional analysis of the cotton transcriptome by creating an integrated EST database
(2011-11-08)
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 ...
Effects of aluminum oxide nanoparticles on the growth, development, and microrna expression of tobacco (nicotiana tabacum)
(2012-05-11)
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 ...
MicroRNA expression analysis in the cellulosic biofuel crop switchgrass (panicum virgatum) under abiotic stress
(2012-03-28)
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 ...
Selection of reliable reference genes in caenorhabditis elegans for analysis of nanotoxicity
(2012-03-15)
Despite rapid development and application of a wide range of manufactured metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs), the understanding of potential risks of using NPs is less completed, especially at the molecular level. The nematode ...
Deep sequencing reveals important roles of microRNAs in response to drought and salinity stress in cotton
(2015-02)
Drought and salinity are two major environmental factors adversely affecting plant growth and productivity. However, the regulatory mechanism is unknown. In this study, the potential roles of small regulatory microRNAs ...
De Novo Transcriptome Assembly and Comparative Analysis Elucidate Complicated Mechanism Regulating Astragalus chrysochlorus Response to Selenium Stimuli
(2015)
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 ...
MicroRNA expression profiles during cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L) fiber early development
(2017-03-22)
The role of microRNAs (miRNAs) during cotton fiber development remains unclear. Here, a total of
54 miRNAs belonging to 39 families were selected to characterize miRNA regulatory mechanism in eight different fiber development ...
Isolation and molecular identification of endophytic diazotrophs from seeds and stems of three cereal crops
(2017-10-30)
Ten strains of endophytic diazotroph were isolated and identified from the plants collected from three different agricultural crop species, wheat, rice and maize, using the nitrogen-free selective isolation conditions. The ...
Genome-Wide Identification and Analysis of Class III Peroxidases in Allotetraploid Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) and their Responses to PK Deficiency
(2019-06-21)
Class III peroxidases (PODs), commonly known as secretable class III plant peroxidases, are plant-specific enzymes that play critical roles in not only plant growth and development but also the responses to biotic and ...
Contribution and distribution of inorganic ions and organic compounds to the osmotic adjustment in Halostachys caspica 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 ...
