database of genomes of possible contaminants was created and a mapping of the QC filtered reads on this database was performed. Contamination filters filtered around one per cent of the raw reads, which mapped mostly to bacterial genomes and the genome of the host plant, sunflower. All reads ...

The sunflower whimpered as he was cut. I almost stopped cutting, but the hapless flower insisted that I go on. If I got caught liberating a flower from the arboretum, there would be a $200 fine, and my mother’s wrath. I hid the sunflower in my Grateful Dead T-shirt, nearly ...
Sunflower (Helianthus annuus) contains four FT homologs, one of which resulted from a mutation that yielded a novel repressor function (Blackman et al., 2010). Wild sunflower carries an in-frame allele of HaFT1, an FT homolog that stimulates flowering in transgenic Arabidopsis. Domesticated ...
It has been evident for more than a decade that the sunflower (H. annuus) genome contains many thousands of TEs [25,26,27,28,29]. In particular, the repetitive fraction of the sunflower genome contains more than 81% TEs, 77% of which are LTR-REs [29]. Among LTR-REs, elements bel...
developmentally regulated processes (reviewed in [24]). H2O2accumulation has been detected in numerous transitional phases of development: in grapevine at the moment of bud break [25], in sunflower during seed dormancy release [26], in tomato and grapevine at fruit ripening [3,27] and in ...
