Seed size is determined by the combinations of the genes controlling different seed characteristics in rice
Rice seed size is an important agronomic trait in determining the yield potential, and four seed size related genes (GS3, GW2, qSW5/GW5 and GIF1) have been cloned in rice so far. However, the relationship among t...

ROLLED LEAF 9, encoding a GARP protein, regulates the leaf abaxial cell fate in rice
Leaves, the collective organ produced by the shoot apical meristem (SAM), are polarized along their adaxial–abaxial axis. In this study, we characterized two rice (Oryza sativa) allelic rolled-leaf mutants, rolle...

Effects of selenium and α-tocopherol on liver damage induced by feeding grains from an endemic area of Keshan disease in rats
Previous studies have shown the pathogenic effects of grains cultivated in the endemic areas of Keshan disease and selenium is effective in the prevention of this disease. In this study, liver damages induced ...
