Genome-wide identification, characterization, and expression analysis of the small auxin-up RNA gene family during zygotic and somatic embryo maturation of the cacao tree (Theobroma cacao).

Small auxin-up RNA (SAUR) proteins were known as a large family that supposedly participated in various biological processes in higher plant species. However, the SAUR family has been still not explored in cacao (Theobroma cacao L.), one of the most important industrial trees.

Genome-Wide Identification and Analysis of Genes Encoding Putative Heat Shock Protein 70 in Papaya ().

<b>Background and Objective:</b> In high plants, the 70 kDa heat stress proteins (Hsp70-s) have been regarded as one of the vital components of the cellular network of chaperones and folding catalysts that play important roles in numerous biological processes during growth and development. The Hsp70 families have been reported in many plant species, unfortunately, no information on this important protein family in papaya (<i>Carica papaya</i>). The objective of this study was to provide comprehensive information on the CpHsp70 family in papaya.

Effect of NPK-SRFS on the Growth, Yield and Essential Oil Composition of Basil ( L.).

<b>Background and Objective:</b> Basil (<i>Ocimum basilicum</i> L.), an aromatic herb, is considered one of the most important crops with essential oils as well as other bioactive compounds. Basil leaves have tremendous pharmaceutical benefits and are used for foods.

Gene Family in Sugar Beet (): Genome-Wide Survey, Phylogeny and Expression Analysis.

<b>Background and Objective:</b> The SWEET (Sugars Will Eventually be Exported Transporter) proteins play important roles in modulating the growth and development processes in plants. However, little information is available on the SWEET family in sugar beet (<i>Beta vulgaris</i>). The objectives of this present study were to genome-wide identify and characterize the BvSWEET family in sugar beet.

High Genetic Diversity of 16 Indian lettuce ( L.) Accessions from Vietnam.

<b>Background and Objective:</b> Plant genetic resources provide the raw material for crop improvement and plant breeding program largely depends on it. Therefore, the evaluation of plant genetic resources plays a critical role in crop improvement and also in conserving valuable genetic resources for the future. In this study, the genetic diversity of 16 <i>Lactuca indica</i> L.

Phylogeny of D. Fang and Implications for Character Evolution and Conservation.

Background And Objective: Alpinia, the largest genus of Zingiberaceae, includes ca. 250 species. The A.

Wood Architecture and Composition Are Deeply Remodeled in Frost Sensitive Overexpressing CBF/DREB1 Transcription Factors.

Eucalypts are the most planted trees worldwide, but most of them are frost sensitive. Overexpressing transcription factors for CRT-repeat binding factors () in transgenic confer cold resistance both in leaves and stems. While wood plays crucial roles in trees and is affected by environmental cues, its potential role in adaptation to cold stress has been neglected.

Explosive tandem and segmental duplications of multigenic families in Eucalyptus grandis.

Plant organisms contain a large number of genes belonging to numerous multigenic families whose evolution size reflects some functional constraints. Sequences from eight multigenic families, involved in biotic and abiotic responses, have been analyzed in Eucalyptus grandis and compared with Arabidopsis thaliana. Two transcription factor families APETALA 2 (AP2)/ethylene responsive factor and GRAS, two auxin transporter families PIN-FORMED and AUX/LAX, two oxidoreductase families (ascorbate peroxidases [APx] and Class III peroxidases [CIII Prx]), and two families of protective molecules late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) and DNAj were annotated in expert and exhaustive manner.
