Identification of relevant non-target organisms exposed to weevil-resistant Bt sweetpotato in Uganda3 Biotech - Tập 4 Số 3 - Trang 217-226 - 2014
Rukarwa, R. J., Mukasa, S. B., Odongo, B., Ssemakula, G., Ghislain, M.
Assessment of the impact of transgenic crops on non-target organisms (NTO) is a
prerequisite to their release into the target environment for commercial use.
Transgenic sweetpotato varieties expressing Cry proteins (Bt sweetpotato) are
under development to provide effective protection against sweetpotato weevils
(Coleoptera) which cause severe economic losses in sub-Saharan Africa. Like any
other ... hiện toàn bộ
Identification and genome analysis of Deinococcus actinosclerus SJTR1, a novel 17β-estradiol degradation bacterium3 Biotech - Tập 8 - Trang 1-7 - 2018
Weiliang Xiong, Wanli Peng, Rubing Liang
Biodegradation with microorganisms is considered as an efficient strategy to
remove the environmental pollutants. In this work, Deinococcus actinosclerus
SJTR1 isolated from the wastewater was confirmed with great degradation
capability to 17β-estradiol, one typical estrogen chemical. It could degrade
nearly 90% of 17β-estradiol (10 mg/L) in 5 days and transform it into estrone;
its degradation ki... hiện toàn bộ
Elimination of Bean yellow mosaic virus from infected cormels of three cultivars of gladiolus using thermo-, electro- and chemotherapy3 Biotech - Tập 9 Số 4 - Trang 1-10 - 2019
Kaur, Charanjeet, Raj, Rashmi, Kumar, Susheel, Purshottam, D. K., Agrawal, Lalit, Chauhan, Puneet S., Raj, S. K.
Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV) is a prevalent virus and major threat to
gladiolus cultivation the world over. In the gladiolus repository at CSIR-NBRI,
Lucknow, several plants (82–88%) of three economically important cultivars were
found infected by BYMV showing severe mosaic and stripe symptoms. Affected
plants exhibit diminished quality and quantity of florets and corms, thus
reducing their val... hiện toàn bộ
Three neuroparsin genes from oriental river prawn, Macrobrachium nipponense, involved in ovary maturation3 Biotech - Tập 10 - Trang 1-14 - 2020
Hui Qiao, Yiwei Xiong, Sufei Jiang, Wenyi Zhang, Lei Xu, Shubo Jin, Yongsheng Gong, Yan Wu, Hongtuo Fu
In this study, we identified three neuroparsin (NP) genes in Macrobrachium
nipponense: Mn-NP1, Mn-NP2, and Mn-NP3, encoding 99, 100, and 101 amino acid
proteins, respectively. Multiple sequence alignments showed that these genes
contained 12 cysteine residues, of which 11 were at conserved positions. The
total sequence identity between the genes was 47.5%, and they showed a high
degree of sequence... hiện toàn bộ
Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase-catalyzed synthesis of natural flavor esters in a continuous flow microreactor3 Biotech - Tập 6 - Trang 1-12 - 2016
Ahmad Mohammed Gumel, M. S. M. Annuar
Enzymatic catalysis is considered to be among the most environmental friendly
processes for the synthesis of fine chemicals. In this study, lipase from
Thermomyces lanuginosus (Lecitase Ultra™) was used to catalyze the synthesis of
flavor esters, i.e., methyl butanoate and methyl benzoate by esterification of
the acids with methanol in a microfluidic system. Maximum reaction rates of 195
and 115 m... hiện toàn bộ
Genome-wide study of flowering-related MADS-box genes family in Cardamine hirsuta3 Biotech - Tập 10 - Trang 1-14 - 2020
Mahmood Ghorbani Marghashi, Hedayat Bagheri, Mansour Gholami
MADS-box genes take part in diverse biological functions especially in
development of reproductive structures and control of flowering time. Recently,
Cardamine hirsuta has emerged as an exclusively powerful genetic system in
comparative studies of development. Although the C. hirsuta genome sequence is
available but a comprehensive analysis of its MADS-box family genes is still
lacking. Here, we ... hiện toàn bộ
Effect of bacterial inoculation on co-composting of lavender (Lavandula angustifolia Mill.) waste and cattle manure3 Biotech - Tập 11 Số 6 - 2021
Babett Greff, Jenö Szigeti, Ágnes Varga, Erika Lakatos, András Sáhó, László Varga
AbstractThe primary purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of
Cellulomonas flavigena and Streptomyces viridosporus, as a bacterial inoculant,
on the compostability of post-extraction lavender waste. The major
physicochemical, microbiological, and biological properties of the composting
materials were monitored for 161 days. The technology developed was shown to
improve the composta... hiện toàn bộ
