The study showed that the insect-resistance of transgenic hybrid poplar 741 was closely related with temperature. The total mortality and accumulative mortality of Gypsy moth (Lmantriadispar L.) larvae increased with increasing temperature, and the sensitivity of larvae to the clones of transgenic hybrid poplar 741 and temperature decreased gradually with the increasing instars. Temperature had a promotion to the development of larvae fed on CK. When the temperature was high, the development of larvae quickened, the development period shortened, and the weight increasing rate and the frass increasing quantity quickened, but the development rate of larvae fed on transgenic hybrid poplar 741 was not obvious with varied temperature. The regressive equation of temperature and Clostera anachoreta (Fabricius) mortality during 1998-2000 year indicated that high resistant and medium resistant clones' temperature-insect mortality curve presented an obvious regressive relation.

Under salt stress, plasma membrane proteins regulate ion homeostasis and the balance between reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this study, we investigated the functions of two small membrane proteins-MsRCI2B (tailless) and MsRCI2E (tailed)-encoded by the RCI2 (Rare Cold Inducible 2) gene family in Medicago sativa (alfalfa). We identified the distinct subcellular localization and expression patterns of these proteins under salt stress.

A Lateral Line Specific Mucin Involved in Cupula Growth and Vibration Detection in Zebrafish.

Int J Mol Sci

The lateral line system in fish is crucial for detecting water flow, which facilitates various behaviors such as prey detection, predator avoidance, and rheotaxis. The cupula, a gelatinous structure overlaying the hair cells in neuromasts, plays a key role in transmitting mechanical stimuli to hair cells. However, the molecular composition of the cupula matrix remains poorly understood.

CRISPR/cas9 Allows for the Quick Improvement of Tomato Firmness Breeding.

Vegetable Research Institute, Guangxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Nanning 530007, China.

Fruit firmness is crucial for storability, making cultivating varieties with higher firmness a key target in tomato breeding. In recent years, tomato varieties primarily rely on hybridizing ripening mutants to produce F hybrids to enhance firmness. However, the undesirable traits introduced by these mutants often lead to a decline in the quality of the varieties.

Plant cross-fertilization for production of dual-specific antibodies targeting both Ebola virus-like particles and HER2 protein in F plants.

Genes Genomics

January 2025

Department of Medicine, BioSystems Design Lab, College of Medicine, Chung-Ang University, 84 Heukseok-ro, Dongjak-gu, Seoul, 06974, Korea.

Background: This study explores the cross-fertilization of transgenic tobacco plants to produce dual-specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting Ebola virus-like particles and HER2 proteins. We generated F plants by hybridizing individual transgenic lines expressing the anti-HER2 breast cancer VHH mAb (HV) and the H-13F6 human anti-Ebola large single chain mAb (EL).

Objective: Hybridizing transgenic plants to express dual-antibodies between different structures VHH and LSCK indicate the potential of transgenic plants as a cost-effective and scalable production system for dual targeting mAbs.
