Metabolomic analysis of rice cultivars from diverse production areas.

Rice grown in Yunnan Province is known for its excellent taste and consumer preference. However, the metabolite composition of this unique rice remains unclear. In this study, the metabolic profile of different rice planted in various producing regions was evaluated.

Metabolomics Reveals the Response Mechanisms of Potato Tubers to Light Exposure and Wounding during Storage and Cooking Processes.

Potato is susceptible to light exposure and wounding during harvesting and transportation. However, the metabolite profile changes in these potato tubers are unclear. The potato cultivars in this study included Hezuo88 (HZ88), Shida6 (SD6), and Jianchuanhong (JCH); the effects of light exposure (L), wounding (W), and the cooking process on potato metabolites were determined.

[Correlation of fetal ventriculomegaly with copy number variations and pregnancy outcome].

Objective: To assess the correlation of borderline fetal ventriculomegaly with genomic copy number variations (CNVs) and outcome of pregnancy.

Methods: For 84 singleton pregnancies diagnosed with VM, chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) was carried out to detect the CNVs of the fetal genome. Outcome of the pregnancy and neonatal development were analyzed.
