Leaf transcriptome analysis and development of SSR markers in water chestnut (Eleocharis dulcis)

Authors: H.B. Liu, Y.N. You, Z.X. Zhu, X.F. Zheng, J.B. Huang, Z.L. Hu and Y. Diao

Water chestnut (Eleocharis dulcis) is an important aquatic crop in China; however, transcriptomic and genomic data in public databases are limited. To identify genes and development molecular markers, high-throughput transcriptome sequencing was applied to generate transcript sequences from water chestnut leaf. More than 24 million reads were obtained, tr.. Read More»

Sexual dimorphism of STGC3 tumor suppressor function in nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE2 cells

Authors: Q. Qiu B. Hu Z.C. Chen X.S. He

STGC3 is a potential tumor suppressor in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. We previously found that CNE2 cells that re-expressed STGC3 formed smaller tumors in female mice than in male mice. Here, we investigated the sexual dimorphism of STGC3 as a tumor-suppressor in female and male nude mice injected subcutaneously with pcDNA3.1(+)-.. Read More»

Effect of casein genes - beta-LGB, DGAT1, GH, and LHR - on milk production and milk composition traits in crossbred Holsteins

Authors: A. Molee, C. Poompramun and P. Mernkrathoke

The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of a single gene and composite genotype of the casein gene family, including the beta-lactoglobulin gene (beta-LGB), acyl-CoA: diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 gene (DGAT1), growth hormone gene (GH), and luteinizing hormone receptor gene (LHR) on milk yield, milk composition, the percentage of fat..

Development and characterization of microsatellite markers for molecular genetic diversity in Atrina pectinata

Authors: Y.F. Ning, Z.B. Li, J.B. Shangguan, Y.S. Huang, P.D. Jiang, A.L. Xu and Y. Yuan

The pen shell, Atrina pectinata, is an economically valuable species that is widely distributed along the coastal waters of temperate and tropical areas, mainly growing in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. Eight novel microsatellite loci from the genome of A. pectinata were developed using fast isolation by amplified fragment length polymorphism of sequence .. Read More»

Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the ORM1-like 3 gene associated with childhood asthma in a Chinese population

Authors: F.F. Yang Y. Huang Q.B. Li J.H. Dai Z. Fu

Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based genome-wide association studies have revealed that polymorphisms of the ORM1-like 3 (ORMDL3) gene are associated with childhood asthma. We investigated genetic associations of SNPs in and around the ORMDL3 gene with childhood asthma in a Chinese population. Genomic DNA was extracted f.. Read More»

Treatment and mechanism of BMMSCs on deep II degree scald of hamster skin

Authors: M. Ma, T. Jiang, N. Li, A. Aliyaand A. Tuhan

In this study, we examined the treatment and mechanism of BMMSC on a deep II degree scald of the hamster skin. A deep II degree scald model on the skin of 40 hamsters was duplicated and divided randomly into a stem cell plantation group (group A) and model control group (group B). Skin cells were cultured in vitro until the allogeneic BMMSCs of the 5th ge.. Read More»

Impacts of transgenic poplar-cotton agro-ecosystems upon target pests and non-target insects under field conditions

Authors: D.J. Zhang, J.X. Liu, Z.Y. Lu, C.L. Li, E. Comada and M.S. Yang

Poplar-cotton agro-ecosystems are the main agricultural planting modes of cotton fields in China. With increasing acres devoted to transgenic insect-resistant poplar and transgenic insect-resistant cotton, studies examining the effects of transgenic plants on target and non-target insects become increasingly important. We systematically surveyed populatio.. Read More»

Mendelian inheritance, genetic linkage, and genotypic disequilibrium at microsatellite loci in Genipa americana L. (Rubiaceae)

Authors: R.O. Manoel, M.L.M. Freitas, E.V. Tambarussi, J. Cambuim, M.L.T. Moraes and A.M. Sebbenn

Genipa americana is a tropical tree species that is widely distributed in the humid tropical and subtropical regions of Central and South America. This study investigated Mendelian inheritance, genetic linkage, and genotypic disequilibrium at six microsatellite loci developed for G. americana. Adult trees (188) and regenerants (163) were sampled and genot.. Read More»

Identification of Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae strains causing bacterial canker of kiwifruit in the Anhui Province of China, and determination of their streptomycin sensitivities

Authors: X. Yang, X.-K. Yi, Y. Chen, A.-F. Zhang, J.-Y. Zhang, Z.-H. Gao, Y.-J. Qi and Y.-L. Xu

27Bacterial canker, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae, is one of the most severe diseases of kiwifruit. It has become an international pandemic and threatens the sustainable development of kiwifruit production in all main kiwi-growing regions worldwide. Streptomycin has been the major bactericide for the control of kiwifruit canker, especially.. Read More»

Genetic diversity and the conservation priority of Glycine soja populations from Northern China

Authors: Y.L. Niu, W.Y. Guo, L.R. Bai and J.C. Zhao

ABSTRACT. Knowledge of the spatial patterns of genetic variation in wild populations has significant implications for in situ conservation and the determination of conservation order. To study the levels of genetic diversity, spatial genetic structures, and genetic distances in Glycine soja, 11 natural populations in northern China were analyzed by estima.. Read More»
