Open AccessComparative gene expression profiles between heterotic and non-heterotic hybrids of tetraploid Medicago sativa
Heterosis, the superior performance of hybrids relative to parents, has clear agricultural value, but its genetic control is unknown. Our objective was to test the hypotheses that hybrids expressing heterosis ...

Open AccessProteome characterization of develo** grains in bread wheat cultivars (Triticum aestivum L.)
The analyses of protein synthesis, accumulation and regulation during grain development in wheat are more complex because of its larger genome size compared to model plants such as Arabidopsis and rice. In thi...

Article
Open AccessHistone acetylation associated up-regulation of the cell wall related genes is involved in salt stress induced maize root swelling
Salt stress usually causes crop growth inhibition and yield decrease. Epigenetic regulation is involved in plant responses to environmental stimuli. The epigenetic regulation of the cell wall related genes ass...
