Project description:The leaf transcriptome of the nickel hyperaccumulator Phyllanthus luciliae (Phyllanthaceae) endemic from New Caledonia was compared to the related non-accumulator Phyllanthus conjugatus var. ducosensis, living respectively on ultramafic and sedimentary soil, to identity differentially expressed genes potentially involved in Ni hyperaccumulation.
Project description:Characterization of Middle Pleistocene rhinoceros proteins and the phylogenetic relationships between extinct and extanct rhinoceros was investigated by obtaining ancient protein data for two extinct rhinoceros genera (Coelodonta antiquitatis and Stephanorhinus sp.).
