UNLABELLED Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr. cv Jack) seed development was separated into nine defined stages (S1 to S9). Testa (seed coats) were removed from developing seeds at stages S2, 4, 6, 8, and 9, and subjected to shotgun proteomic profiling. For each stage "total proteins" were isolated from 150 mg dry weight of seed coat using a phenol-based method, then reduced, alkylated, and digeste...

this investigation was conducted to compare the genetic variation of alfalfa syn0 vs syn1 and ghara yonja (parental cultivar) using seed storage proteins. results of electrophoresis sds-page in seed storage protein, indicated that there are no significant differences between the means of distance intra-population obtained for syn0 and ghara yonja (0.274 ± 0.0045, 0.270 ± 0.0081, respectively) a...

a study was performed to study the effect of drought stress on protein changes of five wheat genotypes. wheat genotypes were planted in early november, growing season of 2008-2009. the experiment was carried out in a factotial design with three replications. two drought stress levels (irrigated and non irrigated) and five genotype of wheat (f103-l-1-12//pony/opata, f1.158/fdl//blo/3/sh14414/cro...

INTRODUCTION Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L., Asteraceae), currently cultivated for its seeds, is the world’s fourth largest oil-seed crop. World seed production was 25.2 million tonnes (t) during 1995/1996 from approximately 50 million ha of cultivated land. In the US, during 1999, sunflower seed production was 1,971,205 t from 1,438,000 ha, according to the National Agricultural Statistics Se...

Brachypodium distachyon, a small annual grass with seed storage globulins as primary protein reserves was used in our study to analyse the toxic nature of non-prolamin seed storage proteins related to celiac disease. The main storage proteins of B. distachyon are the 7S globulin type proteins and the 11S, 12S seed storage globulins similar to oat and rice. Immunoblot analyses using serum sample...

seed storage proteins are synthesized as sources of carbon, nitrogen and sulfur for the next generation of plants. reactive oxygen species serve as second messengers for signal transduction; however, molecular targets of oxidant signaling have not been defined. here, many researchers showes that ligand–receptor mediated signaling promotes reactive oxygen species– dependent protein carbonylation...
