Project description:In order to explore the bacteriostatic mechanism of Neolamarckia cadamba essential oil, the effect of Neolamarckia cadamba essential oil on microbial transcription in logarithmic growth phase was determined.
Project description:The purpose of this study was to explore the mechanism of aerobic decay of whole-plant corn silage and the effect of Neolamarckia cadamba essential oil on aerobic stability of whole-plant corn silage. Firstly, the dynamic changes of temperature, microbial community and metabolite content after aerobic exposure of whole-plant corn silage were determined, and the main microbial species and mechanism leading to aerobic spoilage of whole-plant corn silage were analyzed. The N. cadamba essential oil was extracted from fresh N. cadamba leaves by steam distillation, and the minimal inhibitory concentration, antibacterial stability and bacteriostatic mechanism of N. cadamba essential oil against undesirable microorganisms in whole-plant corn silage were determined. According to the minimum inhibitory concentration of N. cadamba essential oil on undesirable microorganisms in silage, N. cadamba essential oil was added to whole-plant corn silage to explore the effect of N. cadamba essential oil on the aerobic stability of whole-plant corn silage.

Project description:Co-expression networks and gene regulatory networks (GRNs) are emerging as important tools for predicting the functional roles of individual genes at a system-wide scale. To enable network reconstructions we built a large-scale gene expression atlas comprised of 62,547 mRNAs, 17,862 non-modified proteins, and 6,227 phosphoproteins harboring 31,595 phosphorylation sites quantified across maize development. There was little edge conservation in co-expression and GRNs reconstructed using transcriptome versus proteome data yet networks from either data type were enriched in ontological categories and effective in predicting known regulatory relationships. This integrated gene expression atlas provides a valuable community resource. The networks should facilitate plant biology research and they provide a conceptual framework for future systems biology studies highlighting the importance of studying gene regulation at several levels.
