Environmental pollution occurs in nature as air, soil and water a result it affects whole ecosystem including human beings. Although industrialization technological developments have made life easier than before, recent years, they triggered environmental pollution. Cadmium, which is toxic pollutant for all living things, one of the most important element heavy metal pollutants. In this study, ...

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are nuclear receptors of transcription factors composed of three family members: PPARα, PPARβ/δ and PPARγ. This study was aimed to evaluate the role of PPARs in the estradiol production via follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in the ovine Sertoli cells. At the first step, transcripts of PPARα, PPARβ /δ and PPARγ were evaluated by quantitative r...

The survival, biomass, and grain yield of most the crops are negatively influenced by several environmental stresses. present study was carried out using transcript expression profiling for functionally clarifying role genes belonging to a small heat shock protein (sHSP) family in pearl millet under high-temperature stress. Transcript two high-temperature-responsive marker genes, Pgcp70 PgHSF ,...

We generated antisense constructs targeting two of the five Rubisco small subunit genes (OsRBCS2 and 4) which account for between 30–40 % RBCS transcript abundance in leaf blades. The were driven by a maize phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) promoter known to have enriched expression mesophyll cells (MCs). In resulting lines leaf, protein content was reduced 30–50 CO2 assimilation rate limi...

Anthocyanin is a class of water-soluble flavonoids found in Chinese bayberry (Morella rubra) that not only responsible for the variety colors visible nature but also has numerous health-promoting benefits humans. Through comparative transcriptomics, we isolated and identified transcription factor (TF) R2R3-MYB type, MrMYB9, order to explore anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway red white bayberries....

Epigenetics have witnessed a renewed interest over the past decade and assays with recombinant histones has become an important tool for uncovering various aspects of histone biology. However, at times absence of recombinant histone accumulation in bacteria is encountered which is also commonly observed for many eukaryotic proteins in general. In this study, we have investigated the effect of m...

Early accumulation of maternal mRNA in one of the cells of the cluster of 16 cystocytes is a critical event in the determination of the Drosophila oocyte. A number of developmentally important mRNAs have been shown to accumulate in the early oocyte. We report here the early expression of the yemanuclein-alpha (yem-alpha) transcript, its accumulation in the germarial oocyte and its dynamic local...
