By building a detailed profile on each step in the transformation process, from parent to new crop, and by thoroughly evaluating the significance from a safety perspective, of any differences that may be detected, a very comprehensive matrix of information is constructed which enables the conclusion...
the increase in plant gene content is not directly proportional to gene duplication. Under the influence of natural selection, genetic drift, and mutation, most duplicated genes undergo processes including retention, loss, neo-functionalization
Arabidopsisis not only a model plant but also a member of one of the largest families of flowering plants, the Brassicaceae, which includes several crop species such as mustard, radish, cauliflower, broccoli and cabbage. Natural variations (also referred to as ecotypes or accessions) ofArabidopsis...
The beneficial effects of liquorice in treating chills, colds, and coughs have been fully discussed in Ayurveda, as well as in the texts of ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans. The plant has been prescribed for dropsy during the period of famous Hippocrates. The reason being that it was qu...
Active oxygen species (AOS) can damage cells by mutation of nucleic acids and derivatives, dysfunction of proteins, oxidation of lipids to peroxides that make membranes leaky. Excessive illumination during recovery of submerged rice seedlings may induce an oxidative stress because of abnormal amount of...
Mutation in this study involves a random selection of mutation sites. 7. Termination rule Because the optimal site selection scheme is not known in advance, this paper uses setting a maximum iteration limit as the termination condition for the immune algorithm. 6. Example Analysis and Solution ...
