ABSTRACT: Intraspecific plastid genome variation and phylogenetic structure within the nickel hyperaccumulator Streptanthus polygaloides (Brassicaceae)
Project description:The goal of this study was to produce a reference transcriptome for the nickel hyperaccumulator Leucocroton havanensis endemic from Cuba and use this transcriptome as a reference to identify genes responding to the presence or the absence of nickel in both roots and shoots of this species
Project description:The leaf transcriptome of the nickel hyperaccumulator specie Noccaea caerulescens subsp. fimiensis living on serpentine soils were compared to the closely related non-nickel-accumulators Noccaea caerulescens "Viviez" growing on a zinc mining site and Noccaea montana living on serpentine soil, to identity differentially expressed genes potentially involved in Ni hyperaccumulation.
Project description:The evolutionary relationships among extinct African hominin species are highly debated and largely unresolved, due in part to a lack of molecular data. Even within taxa, it is not always clear, based on morphology alone, whether ranges of variation are due to sexual dimorphism versus potentially undescribed taxonomic diversity. For Paranthropus robustus, a Pleistocene hominin found only in South Africa, both phylogenetic relationships to other taxa, and the nature of intraspecific variation are still debated. Here we report the first successful mass spectrometric sequencing of enamel proteomes from four ca. 2 million years old dental specimens morphologically identified as P. robustus from the site of Swartkrans.
Project description:The leaf transcriptome of the nickel hyperaccumulator Leucocroton havanensis (Euphorbiaceae) living on serpentine Cuabal, from Cuba, was compared to the closely related non-accumulator Lasiocroton microphyllus living on Gallery forest on limestone soil, to identity differentially expressed genes potentially involved in Ni hyperaccumulation.
Project description:The leaf transcriptome of the nickel hyperaccumulator Geissois pruinosa (Rubiaceae) endemic from New Caledonia was compared to the closely related non-accumulator Geissois racemosa, living respectively in serpentine maquis or rainforest on limestone, to identity differentially expressed genes potentially involved in Ni hyperaccumulation.
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:The leaf transcriptome of the nickel hyperaccumulator species Psychotria grandis and Psychotria costivenia (Rubiaceae) from Cuba were compared to the closely related non-accumulator Psychotria revoluta, living on Gallery forest on serpentine soil, to identity differentially expressed genes potentially involved in Ni hyperaccumulation.
Project description:The leaf transcriptome of the nickel hyperaccumulator species Homalium kanaliense (Salicaceae) endemic from New caledonia were compared to the closely related non-accumulator Homalium betulifolium, living on Gallery forest or maquis on serpentine soil, to identity differentially expressed genes potentially involved in Ni hyperaccumulation.
Project description:The leaf transcriptome of the nickel hyperaccumulator Psychotria gabriellae (Rubiaceae) endemic from New Caledonia was compared to the closely related non-accumulator Psychotria semperflorens, living in sympatry with P. gabriellae in rain forest on serpentine soil, to identity differentially expressed genes potentially involved in Ni hyperaccumulation.
