Integrative analysis of metabolome and transcriptome reveals the improvements of seed quality in vegetable soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.).

Vegetable soybean is derived from grain soybean. Seeds of vegetable soybean are bigger, sweeter, and have smoother texture and better flavor than those of grain soybean. To better understand the improvements of seed quality in vegetable soybean, comparative metabolome and transcriptome analyses were performed in the developing seeds between grain (Williams 82) and vegetable (Jiaoda 133) soybeans.

TMT-based quantitative proteomics analyses of sterile/fertile anthers from a genic male-sterile line and its maintainer in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.).

Genetic male sterility (GMS) in cotton is important for utilization of heterosis. However, the molecular mechanism of GMS is poorly known. In this study, cytological and proteomics analyses of anthers were conducted in three stages (stage 3 to 5) between GMS line (GA18) and its maintainer (GA18M).

The complete chloroplast genome sequence and phylogenetic analysis of ( Sheh et Shan).

Chloroplast genome sequences are very useful for species identification and phylogenetics. ( Sheh et Shan) is an important traditional Chinese medicinal plant, for which the phylogenetic position is still controversial. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome of Sheh et Shan was determined.
