Project description:Pistacia chinensis Bunge is known as dioecious, but we have found wild monoecious individuals. In order to screen the candidate genes which may influence the sex expression or floral phenotypic differences of P. chinensis, the inflorescence buds for different sex types associated with the sex differentiation were selected and tested for small RNA sequencing. Sex-specific differentially expressed small RNA were discovered, combined with real-time PCR data, the regulation patterns of various sex types were first revealed. Our study represents the first detailed analysis of small RNA sequencing, providing more clues for understanding the mechanism of sex determination on P. chinensis.
Project description:To characterize the expression of 58219 genes annotated from garlic genome, the transcriptomes of seven tissues (including garlic sprouts, shoots, bulbs, flowers, roots, pesudostems, and leaves) were sequenced, and finally identified 45,750 genes expressed in various tissues investigated. In addition, the bulbs-transcriptomes in the eight stages of bulbs-development were sequenced, resulting in 6,234 genes isentified to show dynamic expression changes in the bulbs-developmental process.
Project description:Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 illuminated with either lumiline bulbs at 10W/m2 or tungsten bulbs at 100W/m2. Sparged with 95%N/5%CO2. Keywords: other
Project description:We determined the alkaloid content in Lycoris longituba, Lycoris incarnata, and Lycoris sprengeri, and performed a SWATH-MS-based quantitative approach to detect proteome changes in the three Lycoris.
Project description:Atractylodes macrocephala is a traditional Chinese medicine in China. It is widely used in clinic and the market demand is great. The quality difference between A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz and A. japonica Koidz.ex Kitam is great, which seriously affects its clinical curative effect. Determination of Atractylosin by High-performance liquid chromatography. Transcriptomics coupled with Metabonomics for elucidating differences between the components in A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz and A. japonica Koidz.ex Kitam. It was found that ACS, ACC, PAL and NOS were the key genes and metabolites related to the synthesis of atractylodes macrocephala. The decrease of salicylic acid content in A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz may lead to the decrease of its ability to mediate the elicitor of endophytic fungi, resulting in the down-regulation of the expression of TGAL4 transcription factor and the up-regulation of DOGL3 transcription factor in A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz cells, which may affect the accumulation of Atractylosin. The study above provides a theoretical basis for elucidating the biosynthesis pathway of atractylosin in A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz.
