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
