Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of the Gene Family in Soybean.

The VILLIN (VLN) protein is an important regulator of the actin cytoskeleton, which orchestrates many developmental processes and participates in various biotic and abiotic responses in plants. Although the gene family and their potential functions have been analyzed in several plants, knowledge of genes in soybeans and legumes remains rather limited. In this study, a total of 35 VLNs were characterized from soybean and five related legumes.

The long noncoding RNA regulates anthocyanin accumulation in radish.

Radish ( L.) is an important root vegetable crop belonging to the Brassicaceae family. Anthocyanin rich radish varieties are popular among consumers because of their bright color and high nutritional value.

Disruption of T-box transcription factor eomesa results in abnormal development of median fins in Oujiang color common carp Cyprinus carpio.

Median fins are thought to be ancestors of paired fins which in turn give rise to limbs in tetrapods. However, the developmental mechanisms of median fins remain largely unknown. Nonsense mutation of the T-box transcription factor eomesa in zebrafish results in a phenotype without dorsal fin.

Effect of Shading on the Morphological, Physiological, and Biochemical Characteristics as Well as the Transcriptome of Matcha Green Tea.

High-quality tea leaves are required for matcha production. Shading is one of the key agronomic practices that can increase the quality of green tea. The objectives among matcha tea producers include increasing the ammonia and chlorophyll contents of tea buds, decreasing tea polyphenol contents, and enhancing tea aroma formation.

Identification, characterization, and expression profiling of the putative E3 ubiquitin ligase gene family in .

The family is one of the main E3 ubiquitin ligase families in plants. The family has been characterized in several species. However, genome-wide gene identification and expression profiling of the family in response to abiotic stress in remain unclear.

Plant protein-coding gene families: Their origin and evolution.

Steady advances in genome sequencing methods have provided valuable insights into the evolutionary processes of several gene families in plants. At the core of plant biodiversity is an extensive genetic diversity with functional divergence and expansion of genes across gene families, representing unique phenomena. The evolution of gene families underpins the evolutionary history and development of plants and is the subject of this review.

Discovery of novel septacidin congeners from a high yield heterologous expression strain Streptomyces albus 1597.

Septacidin is an adenine nucleoside antibiotic with antifungal and antitumor activities. During the efforts to construct a better septacidin producer, we obtained a high yield strain S. albus 1597 by putting the biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) of septacidin under the control of the constitutive strong promoter ermE*.

Crosstalk between the ancestral type VII secretion system ESX-4 and other T7SS in .

The type VII secretion system (T7SS) of secretes three substrate classes: Esx, Esp, and PE/PPE proteins, that play important roles in bacterial physiology and host interaction. Five subtypes of T7SS, namely ESX-1 to ESX-5, are present in . ESX-4 is the progenitor of T7SS but its function is not understood.

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae).

We determined the complete mitochondrial genomes of a new record whitefly pest on tea-tree. The mitogenome of is 15,427 bp long and consists of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes and a putative control region (GenBank: MN934936). The whole base composition of the heavy strand for A, C, G and T is 30%, 12.

Proteomic Analysis of Potato Responding to the Invasion of UW551 and Its Type III Secretion System Mutant.

Stage-dependent stoichiometric homeostasis and responses of nutrient resorption in Amaranthus mangostanus to nitrogen and phosphorus addition.

Stoichiometric homeostasis is the ability of plants remaining their element composition relatively stable regardless of changes in nutrient availability, via various physiological mechanisms. Nutrient resorption is one of such key mechanisms, but whether and how nitrogen and phosphorus homeostasis and resorption in plants would change with growth-stages under variable nutrient supply was unclear. A nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) fertilizer addition experiment was conducted to evaluate the dynamics of N and P homeostasis and resorption efficiency during different growth-stages of Amaranthus mangostanus in a greenhouse.

Comparative genomic and transcriptomic analyses of the Fuzhuan brick tea-fermentation fungus Aspergillus cristatus.

Background: Aspergillus cristatus is the dominant fungus involved in the fermentation of Chinese Fuzhuan brick tea. Aspergillus cristatus is a homothallic fungus that undergoes a sexual stage without asexual conidiation when cultured in hypotonic medium. The asexual stage is induced by a high salt concentration, which completely inhibits sexual development.
