Authors: Y. Yang, Z.B. Jing, X.F. Ruan and J.M. Cheng
Persimmon (Diospyros L.) is an economically important fruit in the world, and it has been recognized as a healthy nutrient supply for human consumption. In this study, 14 microsatellite markers were developed from an AG/TC and AC/TG-enriched genomic library of Chinese persimmon Mopanshi. Twelve polymorphic markers were selected in 4 related species; these.. Read More»

RNA-Seq-based transcriptome and the reproduction-related genes for the aphid Schlechtendalia chinensis (Hemiptera, Aphididae)
Authors: P. Liu, Z.X. Yang, X.M. Chen, P. Yang
Chinese galls form on sumac plants (Rhus chinensis) and are used for medicinal and chemical purposes, due to their richness in tannins. The galls are formed by aphids, the most prominent of which is Schlechtendalia chinensis, which forms horn-shaped galls on the winged rachis of R. chinensis. S. chinensis has a complex life cy..

Genetic variation of Sargassum horneri populations detected by inter-simple sequence repeats
Authors: J.R. Ren, R. Yang, Y.Y. He and Q.H. Sun
The seaweed Sargassum horneri is an important brown alga in the marine environment, and it is an important raw material in the alginate industry. Unfortunately, the fixed resource that was originally reported is now reduced or disappeared, and increased floating populations have been reported in recent years. We sampled a floating population and 4 fixed c.. Read More»

Serum miR-200c expression level as a prognostic biomarker for gastric cancer
Authors: H.-P. Zhang,F.-B. Sun, S.-J. Li
The aim of the present study was to analyze the serum expression level of microRNA-200c (miR-200c) in gastric cancer (GC) patients and to determine the relationship between this expression and clinicopathological features and survival. Serum samples were obtained from 98 patients with GC between February 2008 and January 2013... Read More»

Identification of 19 loci for reproductive traits in a local Chinese chicken by genome-wide study
Authors: Q.C. Fan, P.F. Wu, G.J. Dai, G.X. Zhang, T. Zhang, Q. Xue,H.Q. Shi, J.Y. Wang
Reproductive traits have long been studied and have an important influence on chicken breeding. To identify quantitative trait loci affecting reproductive traits, a genome-wide analysis of a Chinese chicken breed was performed to analyze age at first egg body weight at first egg, first egg weight, egg weight at the age of 300 ..

Evolutive and structural characterization of Nostoc commune iron-superoxide dismutase that is fit for modification
Authors: Y. Ma M. Lu J.-Y. Li Y. Qin X.-G. Gong
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) has extensive clinical applications for protecting organisms from toxic oxidation. In this study, the integrated iron-superoxide dismutase gene (fe-sod) coding sequence of Nostoc commune stain CHEN was cloned from genomic DNA and compared to sods from other reported algae. These analyses of immunology and phylogenetics indicated th.. Read More»

Myrciaria dubia, an Amazonian fruit: population structure and its implications for germplasm conservation and genetic improvement
Authors: C.F. Nunes, T.A. Setotaw, M. Pasqual, E.A. Chagas, E.G. Santos,D.N. Santos, C.G.B. Lima, G.M.A. Can�§ado
Myrciaria dubia (camu-camu) is an Amazon tree that produces a tart fruit with high vitamin C content. It is probably the fruit with the highest vitamin C content among all Brazilian fruit crops and it can be used to supplement daily vitamin C dose. This property has attracted the attention of consumers and, consequently, encou.. Read More»

Effect of photoperiod on serum hormone concentrations during the annual reproductive cycle in geese
Authors: X.Z. Zhao, G.L. Gao, H.W. Wang, Q. Li, K.S. Zhang,H. Zhong, Q.G. Wang
The poor egg-laying rate of geese hinders the development of the goose industry; therefore, the reproductive performance of geese is an important area of investigation. To evaluate the relationship between photoperiod, reproductive hormones, and reproductive activity during the egg-laying cycle in geese under natural condition.. Read More»

Authors: C.S. Almeida-Pereira, A.V.C. Silva, R.P. Alves, R.B. Feitosa-Alcantara, M.F. Arrigoni-Blank, S.V. Alvares-Carvalho, T.S. Costa, L.A.S. White, V.S. Pinto, T.S. Sampaio and A.F. Blank
Brazil has about 300 Croton species in different types of vegetation. Croton tetradenius Baill., which is endemic to the Northeast region and predominant in the Caatinga vegetation, stands out among the several species of this genus. Considering the importance of knowing the genetic variability of a species, the objective of t.. Read More»

Authors: L. Jiang, X.Y. Yang, X.Y. Li, P.K. Deng, G.X. Jing, X.Q. Wang,Z. Xing, R.G. Zhao
Doubling method is the technical barriers in maize haploid breeding. It was very important to establish the independent intellectual property rights for doubling method. In this experiment, the maize haploid inducer, TG15, was used for producing maternal haploids. Also, haploids were obtained from two kinds of maternal genotyp.. Read More»
