Morphological and molecular characterization of maize inbred lines showing variability for drought tolerance
Authors: Asima Gazal, F.A. Nehvi, Ajaz Ahmad Lone, Zahoor Ahmed Dar
A set of hundred maize inbred lines were analyzed for resilience to moisture stress for twenty-four traits related to maturity, morphological, physiological, yield, quality and root traits. Evaluation confirmed a wide range of variability revealing significant response of main effects (lines, irrigations and years and their re.. Read More»

Preliminary analysis on the developmental transcriptomes of swallowtail butterfly Papilio polytes (Lepidoptera: Papilioidae)
Authors: Shun Yao, Yun-liang Wang, Rui-song Tao, Cheng-yong Su, Jia-sheng Hao
The butterflies are one of the insect groups which undergo typical complete metamorphosis in their life history. However, up to now, little is known about the genomic mechanism that regulates the butterfly metamorphosis. In this study, using a swallowtail butterfly P. polytes as a model organism, a high-throughput sequencing p.. Read More»
