Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of NCED Gene Family in Pear and Its Response to Exogenous Gibberellin and Paclobutrazol.

The 9--epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase () is a key enzyme for the process of ABA synthesis that plays key roles in a variety of biological processes. In the current investigation, genome-wide identification and comprehensive analysis of the gene family in 'Kuerle Xiangli' ( Yu) were conducted using the pear genomic sequence. In total, nineteen members of genes were identified from the whole genome of pear, which are not evenly distributed over the scaffolds, and most of which were focussed in the chloroplasts.

[Cloning and expression analysis of gene in walnut].

(GIGANTEA) is one of the output key genes for circadian clock in the plant. The gene was cloned and its expression in different tissues was analyzed to facilitate the functional research of . RT-PCR (reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction) was used to clone gene in present study.

Evolution of the PEBP gene family in Juglandaceae and their regulation of flowering pathway under the synergistic effect of JrCO and JrNF-Y proteins.

Phosphatidyl ethanolamine-binding protein (PEBP) has a conserved PEBP domain and plays an important role in regulating the flowering time and growth of angiosperms. To understand the evolution of PEBP family genes in walnut family and the mechanism of regulating flowering in photoperiod pathway, 53 genes with PEBP domain were identified from 5 Juglandaceae plants. The PEBP gene family of Juglandaceae can be divided into four subgroups, FT-like, TFL-like, MFT-like and PEBP-like subgroups.

Comprehensive Identification and Analyses of the GRF Gene Family in the Whole-Genome of Four Juglandaceae Species.

The gene family plays an important role in plant growth and development as regulators involved in plant hormone signaling and metabolism. However, the Juglandaceae gene family remains to be studied. Here, we identified 15, 15, 19, and 20 genes in , , , and , respectively.

Genome-Wide Identification, Classification, Expression and Duplication Analysis of bZIP Family Genes in L.

Basic leucine zipper (bZIP), a conserved transcription factor widely found in eukaryotes, has important regulatory roles in plant growth. To understand the information related to the bZIP gene family in walnut, 88 JrbZIP genes were identified at the genome-wide level and classified into 13 subfamilies (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, M, and S) using a bioinformatic approach. The number of exons in JrbZIPs ranged from 1 to 12, the number of amino acids in JrbZIP proteins ranged from 145 to 783, and the isoelectric point ranged from 4.

Blueberry Polyphenols Ameliorate Visible Light and Lipid-Induced Injury of Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells.

Although dietary polyphenols are known to be beneficial to vision, the protective distinctions among different types of polyphenols are unclear. In this work, the visual benefits of various blueberry polyphenols were evaluated using an in vitro model of visible light-lipid-induced injury of retinal pigment epithelial cells. Results showed that, at 10.
