Among 300,000 species in angiosperms, Orchidaceae containing 30,000 species is one of the largest families. Almost every habitats on earth have orchid plants successfully colonized, and it indicates that orchids are among the plants with significant ecol
Microalgae are the potential choice in diverting carbon emission from industrial plants. Owing to the high CO2 concentrations, industrial flue gas can constrain the growth of most microalgae. Therefore, creation of high-CO2-tolerant microalgal strains to feed on CO2-rich industrial flue gas would ...
Microorganisms are responsible for nutrient removal and resource recovery in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), and their diversity is often studied by 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. However, this approach underestimates the abundance and diversity of Patescibacteria due to the low coverage of com...
With the genome sequencing of diploid Rosa chinensis‘Old Blush’, it can presumably become an excellent model plant for functional genomics of ornamental plants [11]. Many gene families with corresponding growth and development need to be examined. In plants, AP2/ERF proteins are profoundly ...
extraction. The protocols were approved by the Ethics Committee of the Eighth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University. Written informed consents were collected from all the participants before enrollment. Py-GC/MS analysis of PS plastic particles in miscarriage villous tissues...
There is no univocal definition for the Mediterranean diet. Although many concepts have been associated with such dietary pattern as will be then discussed in the present article, a generic consideration of the Mediterranean diet relies on the main features characterizing the dietary habits of individ...
Methanomassiliicoccales are a recently identified order of methanogens that are diverse across global environments particularly the gastrointestinal tracts of animals; however, their metabolic capacities are defined via a limited number of cultured strai
On the other hand, synthetic polymers are more affordable than biopolymer chitosan [159]; thus, replacing them with one might reduce the cost of chitosan-based films without compromising their functioning. One of the medicinal plants in the Liliaceae family is aloe vera. Since ancient times, it...
Our atlas aims at becoming the reference for the future development of targeted functional studies, a first indispensable step towards the definition of miRNA involvement in grapevine development. Methods Plant material All samples ofVitis viniferaL. cv Corvina were collected from a 7-year-old vineyar...
for eukaryotic genomes, because they include non-coding regions, regulatory elements, and intergenic regions, thereby enabling a more holistic understanding of genomic architecture and functional elements [10]. To date, however, super-pangenomes in plants have been limited by reducing diploid genomes ...
