─One of the main pathways of post-translational regulation of the levels of specific proteins in eukaryotic cells is based on ubiquitination process in which E3 ligases such as SINAT5 transfer the ubiquitin to the target proteins. For further identification, the expression and the relative level maize SINAT5 transcript were analyzed using reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction (RT-...

Received Jan 1, 2018 Revised Mar 15, 2018 Accepted Mar 29, 2018 Disease in palm oil sector is one of the major concerns because it affects the production and economy losses to Malaysia. Diseases appear as spots on the leaf and if not treated on time, cause the growth of the palm oil tree. This work presents the use of digital image processing technique for classification oil palm leaf disease s...

Trichomes are leaf hairs that are formed by single cells on the leaf surface. They are known to be involved in pathogen resistance. Their patterning is considered to emerge from a field of initially equivalent cells through the action of a gene regulatory network involving trichome fate promoting and inhibiting factors. For a quantitative analysis of single and double mutants or the phenotypic ...

The objective of this research was to determine the effects of elevated concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) on field-grown soybean. Soybeans (Glycine max L. Merr. cv. "Essex) were grown a full-season in open-top field chambers exposed to either ambient (350 #l L -j) or elevated CO2 (500 #l L -j) levels under two levels of SO2 (0.00 and 0.12 #l L-t). Enriched CO2, wit...

Tea leaf color is not only important from an aesthetics standpoint but is also related to tea quality. To investigate the molecular mechanisms that determine tea leaf color, we examined Camellia sinensis cv. 'Anjin Baicha' (an albino tea cultivar) by tandem mass tag isobaric labeling to generate a high-resolution proteome and acetyl-proteome atlas of three leaf developmental stages. We identifi...

The rice resistance gene Xa21 confers resistance against the bacterial pathogen Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). The molecular genetic mechanism controlling the integration of the Xa21-mediated disease resistance response with the developmental program in rice is under study in this model system. Reproducible means of infecting plants at certain developmental stages were designed based on t...

Wax apple is one of the superior fruits Demak, especially cultivars 'Citra', 'Delima' and ‘Madu Deli Hijau'. Research on wax three still limited. Therefore, research authentication based morphological characters metabolite profiles present in location important to do. The aims this study were identify analyze profiles, relationship marker activities apples cultivars. Sampling was Boyolali Villa...

Compatible virus infection induces and suppresses host gene expression at the global level. These gene-expression changes are the molecular basis of symptom development and general stress and defence-like responses of the host. To assess transcriptional changes in soybean plants infected with soybean mosaic virus (SMV), the first soybean trifoliate leaf, immediately above the SMV-inoculated uni...
