Molecular characterization of a cDNA encoding putative calcium binding protein, HvCaBP1, induced during kernel development in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)
Seed development is known to involve complex physiological and molecular events. In order to gain information on the molecular events that occur in the grains of barley during kernel development, we conducted ...

Expressed sequence tags from a wheat-rye translocation line (2BS/2RL) infested by larvae of Hessian fly [Mayetiola destructor (Say)]
Of the 16 known biotypes of the Hessian fly [Mayetiola destructor (Say)], biotype L is recognized as being the most virulent. We have previously reported the development of near-isogenic lines (NILs) (BC3F3:4) by...

A new selection method for pepper transformation: callus-mediated shoot formation
We used two genes, TMV-CP and PPI1 (pepper-PMMV interaction 1 transcription factor), to transform commercially important chili pepper (Capsicum annuum) inbred lines (P915, P409) by means of Agrobacterium co-cultu...

Expressed sequence tags from wheat roots under hypoxia
Hypoxia due to waterlogging adversely affects agricultural crops in many parts of the world and severely impacts overall annual production levels. To evaluate the response of wheat roots to a controlled hypoxi...

Molecular characterization of a cDNA encoding disulfide isomerase during barley kernel development
We conducted differential hybridization using two different tissues (caryopses as a tester and pericarps as a driver) 14 days after fertilization (DAF) to characterize the molecular mechanisms inherent to barl...

Functional characterization of Arabidopsis Dof transcription factor AtDof4.1
The plant specific Dof (DNA Binding with One Zinc Finger) transcription factors (TFs) perform many different functions, and some members of this family appear to play an important role in the evolution of the ...

Early life stress experience may blunt hypothalamic leptin signalling
The aim of this study was to investigate whether neonatal maternal separation (MS) – chronic stress experience in early life – affects the anorectic efficacy of leptin in the offspring at adolescence. Sprague–...

Generation of Transgenic Napier Grass (Cenchrus purpureus Schum.) Plants by Biolistic Gene Transfer of a Minimal Expression Cassette
Napier grass (Cenchrus purpureus Schum.) is one of the highest yielding tropical C4 forage grasses and a promising candidate feedstock for the production of biofuel. Genetic engineering and genome editing have tr...
