Are hormones more important to plants or mammals? Explain your thinking and support your reasoning. Describe some of the key adaptations of plants to life on land. Briefly describe some of the key adaptations of plants to life on land. ...
What are the different classifications of amino acids? Lactose is a disaccharide (two monosaccharides joined together). To break a lactose molecule into monosaccharides that the body can metabolize for energy, humans require an enzyme known as lactase. What is the name of th...
Once trees began fruiting, chemical thinning sprays were applied to avoid over-cropping and limb breakage. Forty-one apple rootstock accessions (Malus spp.) representing rootstock varieties used in major apple-growing regions in the world were used for pedigree analysis of Dw1 and Dw2. Phenotypic ...
Gaithersburg, MD, USA) and retention index. Quantitative analysis was conducted with peak areas of volatile compounds and the internal standard49. The mass fraction was calculated using the formula given below: compound emission rate (μg·g−1·h−1) ...
GO classifications of assembled unigenes, having sequence homology with uniprot proteins, assigned to 51 functional groups. Full size image Comparative analysis with available public databases The assembled unigenes were functionally annotated using BLASTx algorithm against the protein sequences of five pub...
Using leave-one-out cross-validation, we were able to achieve an overall accuracy of 97.88% at the 1st level and an overall accuracy of 98.11% at the 2nd level with dipeptide composition. Benchmarking on independent datasets showed that NRfamPred had comparable accuracy to other existing ...
Interaction of cognate ligands, which are mostly small hydrophobic compounds, such as steroids, retinoids, and thyroid hormones, trigger a conformational change in the receptor proteins. It enables interaction with specific cofactors and cis-regulatory DNA sequences called hormone res- ponse elements (...
Moreover, inputs of large quantities of organic matter may induce hypoxic or anoxic zones, where oxygen consumption exceeds supply. Such events intensify during warm late summer and early autumn months [38]. Other anthropogenic pollutants (e.g., hydrocarbons, hormones) and anthropogenic physical ...
The synthesis of ethylene, one of classical plant hormones, is from methionine through S-adenosyl-L-methionine and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC), which is catalyzed by ACC synthase and ACC oxidase, respectively [36]. Interestingly, two 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate oxidases (A2Z...
