Parasites can facilitate their own spread and reproduction by manipulating insect hosts behavior, as seen in the interaction between Thitarodes xiaojinensis and Ophiocordyceps sinensis. Infection by O. sinensis leads to the mummification of T. xiaojinensis larvae, but the underlying mechanisms remai...
we analyzed the anther transcriptome before and after 4 days of mannitol treatment using the 22k Barley1 GeneChip Experiment Overall Design: one genotype (DH line 46), two treatments (4 days of mannitol treatment and control) and three repeats each treatment
proteomic analysis of genes associated with mannitol metabolism in Saccharina explains the key role in mannitol metabolism and evolutionary significance of these genes
Drought is one of the most detrimental environmental stresses to which plants are exposed. Especially mild drought is relevant to agriculture and significantly affects plant growth and development. In plant research, mannitol is often used to mimic drought stress and study the resulting responses. I...
ra09-01_qtlleafgrowth - ego3 - What are the transcriptional consequences of the allelic contrast at SG3, SG1 and EGO3 loci mapped for its effect on shoot growth and identified at the gene level - Plants were grown in the in vitro conditions with 60 mM mannitol, where we have mapped and cloned the co...
Experiment to identify genes for responding to water stress in the moss Physcomitrella patens using various available water stresses such as mannitol, NaCl, and drought. Treatments were carried out on duplicate tissue samples. RNA isolated independently from each tissue sample and monitored for stre...
Saccharomyces cerevisiae normally cannot assimilate mannitol, a promising brown macroalgal carbon source for bioethanol production. To date, the molecular mechanisms underlying this inability remain unknown. Here, we found that cells acquiring mannitol-assimilating ability appeared from wild-type S....
Pathogenic bacteria proliferating inside mammalian host cells need to rapidly adapt to the intracellular environment. How they achieve this and scavenge essential nutrients from the host has been an open question due to the difficulties in distinguishing between bacterial and host metabolites
Seeds of Arabidopsis thaliana (ecotype Columbia) were surface-sterilized inbayrochlore/ethanol (1:1, v/v), rinsed in absolute ethanol and dried overnight. Germination and growth were carried out under axenic conditions in square Petri dishes. After seeds were sowed, Petri dishes were placed at 4°C f...
