We have investigated the regulation by N-acetyl-glucosamine of the nag1 gene of the mycoparasitic biocontrol fungus Trichoderma atroviride (=T. harzianum P1), which encodes a 73-kDa N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase. The use of translational... more
Biotechnology in the Agriculture sector covers indigenous plant and animal breeding to the choice of individuals and hybridization including technically complicated techniques of genetic engineering. The beneficiaries are farmers,... more
In silico derived properties on experimental validation revealed that hypothetical protein Alr2954 of Anabaena sp. PCC7120 is ADP-ribose pyrophosphatase, which belongs to nudix hydrolase superfamily. Presence of ADP-ribose binding site... more
Plant-parasitic nematodes secrete effector proteins to direct the endogenous molecular and physiological pathways of their hosts for their own benefit. The development of unique and highly specialized feeding cells within host roots is an... more
Bouea merupakan anggota dari famili Anacardiaceae yang terdistribusi luas di daerah Malesia. Malesia merupakan kawasan yang terbentang antara benua Asia dan Australia mencakup Filipina, Brunei, Papua Nugini, Indonesia, Malaysia, dan... more
The Y chromosome is one of the best genetic materials to explore the evolutionary history of human populations. Global analyses of Y chromosomal short tandem repeats (STRs) data can reveal very interesting world population structures and... more
The plant RNase T2 family is divided into two different subfamilies. S-RNases are involved in rejection of self-pollen during the establishment of self-incompatibility in three plant families. S-like RNases, on the other hand, are not... more
Aluminum toxicity is the main factor limiting the productivity of crop plants in acid soils, particularly in the tropics and subtropics. In this study, a doubled-haploid population derived from the rice (Oryza sativa L.) breeding lines... more
Aging is one of the chief biomedical problems of the 21st century. After decades of basic research on biogerontology (the science of aging), the aging process still remains an enigma. Although hundreds of "theories" on aging have been... more
The maxicircle control region [also termed divergent region (DR)] composed of various repeat elements remains the most poorly studied part of the kinetoplast genome. Only three extensive DR sequences demonstrating no significant... more
There is an immediate need for a high-density genetic map of cotton anchored with fiber genes to facilitate marker-assisted selection (MAS) for improved fiber traits. With this goal in mind, genetic mapping with a new set of... more
We applied ancient DNA methods to shed light on the origin of ancient Hungarians and their relation to modern populations. Hungarians moved into the Carpathian Basin from the Eurasian Pontic steppes in the year 895 AD as a confederation... more
More than 2,000 genome-wide barley single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were developed by resequencing unigene fragments from eight diverse accessions. The average genome-wide SNP frequency observed in 877 unigenes was 1 SNP per 200 bp.... more
As a new anticancer treatment option, vaccinia virus (VACV) has shown remarkable antitumor activities (oncolysis) in preclinical studies, but potential infection of other organs remains a safety concern. We present here genome comparisons... more
The genetics and biochemistry of anthocyanins and flavonol biosynthesis and their role in plant organ pigmentation is well established in model species. However, the genetic basis of colour variation is species specific and understanding... more
The review is devoted to genetic mechanisms of regulation of plant embryonic development. Numerous families of genes identified to date that control this phase of plant ontogenesis are presented in detail; their key role in the formation... more
We investigated how over-expression of a cDNA for human ornithine decarboxylase (odc) affects the polyamine pools in transgenic rice. We further investigated tissue-specific expression patterns and product accumulation levels of the... more
