Nodosin Exerts an Anti-Colorectal Cancer Effect by Inhibiting Proliferation and Triggering Complex Cell Death and .

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common digestive system cancer in the world. Its incidence and mortality are increasing annually. Presently, CRC lacks long-term effective treatment methods and drugs.

Identification of QTLs and a Candidate Gene for Reducing Pre-Harvest Sprouting in - Chromosome Segment Substitution Lines.

Wheat pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) causes serious losses in wheat yield. In this study, precise mapping was carried out in the chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSL) F population generated by a direct cross of Zhoumai 18 (PHS-sensitive) and accession T093 (highly PHS-resistant). Three -derived quantitative trait loci (QTLs), , , and , were detected on chromosome 3DL using four simple sequence repeats (SSR) markers and 10 developed Kompetitive allele-specific PCR (KASP) markers.

F-Doped NaTi(PO)/C Nanocomposite as a High-Performance Anode for Sodium-Ion Batteries.

We are presenting a sol-gel method for building novel nanostructures made of nanosized F-doped NaTi(PO)F (NTP-F , x = 0, 0.02, 0.05, and 0.

An Advanced Backcross Population through Synthetic Octaploid Wheat as a "Bridge": Development and QTL Detection for Seed Dormancy.

The seed dormancy characteristic is regarded as one of the most critical factors for pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) resistance. As a wild wheat relative species, is a potential genetic resource for improving common wheat. In this study, an advanced backcross population (201 strains) containing only segments was developed by means of synthetic octaploid wheat (hexaploid wheat Zhoumai 18 × T093).

Molecular Characterization and Variation of the Celiac Disease Epitope Domains among α-Gliadin Genes in Aegilops tauschii.

To explore the distribution and quantity of toxic epitopes in α-gliadins from Aegilops tauschii, a total of 133 complete α-gliadin coding sequences were obtained, including 69 pseudogenes with at least one premature stop codon and 64 genes with complete open reading frames (ORFs). Plenty of deletions and single amino acid substitutions were found in the 4 celiac disease (CD) toxic epitope domains through multiple alignments, in which the sequence of DQ2.5-glia-α2 demonstrated the most significant changes.

Nonhomologous Chromosome Pairing in Aegilops-Secale Hybrids.

Intergeneric hybrids and amphidiploid hybrids from crosses of Aegilopstauschii and Secale cereale were produced using young embryo rescue. The hybrids showed complete sets of both parental chromosomes. The dihaploid plants showed an average meiotic pairing configuration of 10.
