Project description:White-rot basidiomycete fungi are potent degraders of plant biomass with the ability to mineralize all lignocellulose components. Recent comparative genomics studies showed that these fungi use a wide diversity of enzymes for wood degradation. Deeper functional analyses are however necessary to understand the enzymatic mechanisms leading to lignocellulose breakdown. The Polyporale fungus Pycnoporus coccineus CIRM-BRFM310 grows well on both coniferous and deciduous wood. In the present study we analyzed the early response of the fungus to softwood (pine) and hardwood (aspen) feedstocks.
Project description:The miRNAs expression profile of three different types of teeth include deciduous incisor (QY), deciduous canine (JY) , deciduous premolar (QMY) ,and deciduous molar (MY) in three typical stages of tooth development embryonic day 40 , 50, and 60, which cover the major morphological and physiological changes in pig tooth germ growth and development throughout pregnancy including the bud, cap, and bell stages.
