A High-Density Genetic Map Constructed for Maize (Zea mays L.) Based on Large-Scale SNP Discovery Using Whole-Genome Resequencing and Specific-Locus Amplified Fragments Sequencing (SLAF-Seq)
Maize is an important food and industrial material resource. We constructed a high-density genetic map using the whole-genome resequencing and specific-locus amplified fragments sequencing (SLAF-seq) technique...

Open AccessAltered dynamics of ubiquitin hybrid proteins during tumor cell apoptosis
The ubiquitin hybrid genes Uba80 and Uba52 encode ubiquitin (Ub), which is fused to the ribosomal proteins S27a (RPS27a) and L40 (RPL40), respectively. Here, we show that these genes are preferentially over-expre...

Scaling of root length density of maize in the field profile
Root length density is an important parameter in crop growth simulation and in evaluating consequences of root pattern on crop water and nutrient uptake. In this study, a scaling model was presented for estima...
