The morphology of V. v. sylvestris is different from the V. v. vinifera. The wild form has small leaves and the adult plant is less luxuriant then V. v. vinifera even when grown in a collection (Figure 1A). The grape clusters produced by female plants are small, less abundant (Figure...
Since wild grapevines carry the ancestral form of the sex locus from which the domesticated grapevine hermaphroditism derived, we first mapped sequence polymorphisms linked to the sex trait in Vitis vinifera subsp. sylvestris. Then, we compared the polymorphisms linked to the sex trait in diverse wil...
GO and KEGG enrichment analysis were also performed [35], and the results were presented in the form of bubble charts. Molecular docking Molecular docking can be used to evaluate the tightness of binding between the active ingredient and the core target. Molecular docking was performed after ...
Aβ peptides are classified into two major isoforms composed of 40 or 42 amino acids (Aβ40 and Aβ42), with Aβ42 being the more toxic form which plays an essential role in the pathogenesis of AD. We investigated whether YXT and its herbal components could inhibit the Aβ42 ...
Critical appraisal of each included article is attached in Additional file 1: Appendix 4. Data extraction, charting, and analysis A preliminary data extraction form was developed based on the research questions and piloted with 10 included articles by two independent reviewers (MJ and XY). After ...

The coding product of human ABO gene is a glycosyltransferase, of which catalytic activity could facilitate the transfer of carbohytrates to H antigen to form the antigenic structure of the ABO blood groups [21]. Current evidence found that human ABO blood groups or genetic variations on ABO ...
We first produced a reference genome of V. sylvestris. We then re-sequenced a V. sylvestris cross and used a segregation analysis to identify sex-linked SNPs and locate the sex locus on the V. sylvestris genome. Comparing X, Y, and Yh haplotypes from both V. sylvestris and V. vinifera ...
Size selection was performed via a BluePippin (Sage Science, Beverly, MA) to construct a cDNA library of size > 4 kb. The same amount of non-selected cDNA and > 4 kb cDNA were combined to form Iso-Seq library for SMRT sequencing. Iso-Seq data processing with standard ...
The aggregation of the “sticky” form, amyloid-β42, into fibrillar structures has been established as one of the mechanisms leading to all known clinical symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease. Consequently, we decided to investigate the role of PSEN1 in neuronal cell death in AD. NeuroDNet tool ...
