Plant diurnal oscillation is a 24-hour period based variation. The correlation between diurnal genes and biological pathways was widely revealed by microarray analysis in different species. Rice (Oryza sativa) is the major food staple for about half of the world's population. The rice flag leaf is e...
Grafting is widely applied in the cultivation of melon. In this study, 'Qinmi No.1' [Cucumis melo L.(QG)] and 'Ribenxuesong' [Cucurbita maxima Duch. (RG)] were used as rootstocks for 'QingxinYangjiaocui' (Cucumis melo L.). The results showed that grafting with...
Recent studies have provided links between glutamine metabolism and bone remodeling, but little is known about its role in primary osteoporosis progression. We aimed to determine the effects of inhibiting glutaminase (GLS) on two types of primary osteoporosis and elucidate the related metabolism. To...
The oocyte serves the different purpose of transmitting the maternal genome and factors that are critical for post-fertilization events. Through the screening of oocyte-specific factors, here we identify two hitherto uncharacterized murine genes, ferritin domain containing 1 and 2 (Ftdc1 and Ftdc2),...
