Osiris: an integrated promoter database for Oryza sativa L

SUMMARY Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is an important model monocot and cereal crop. While the rice genome sequence has been published and annotated, relatively little is known about the transcriptional networks that regulate rice gene expression. For this reason, we have developed Osiris, a database containing promoter sequences, predicted transcription factor (TF) binding sites, gene ontology annota...

Correlation Studies in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Seventy genotypes of rice (Oryza sativa L.) were evaluated during Kharif 2012 to study the nature and extent of correlation among yield and yield attributing characters, days to 50 per cent flowering, days to maturity, number of effective tillers per plant, plant height, panicle length, number of grains per panicle, 1000-grain weight, grain yield per plant, kernel length, kernel breadth and L/B...

Structure, expression and promoter activity of two polyubiquitin genes from rice (Oryza sativa L.).

We have isolated two rice polyubiquitin genes designated as RUBQ1 and RUBQ2 by screening a Bacterial Artificial Chromosome (BAC) genomic library with a 32P-labeled ubiquitin cDNA probe. DNA sequence data revealed that both genes contained an open reading frame encoding a hexameric precursor ubiquitin and an intron immediate upstream of the initiation codon. The deduced amino acid sequences of b...

DIPOS: database of interacting proteins in Oryza sativa.

Rice is an important crop throughout the world and is the staple food for about half the world's population. For better breeding and improved production, we need to know the function of rice molecules which facilitate their function through interactions with each other. The database of interacting proteins in Oryza sativa (DIPOS) provides comprehensive information of interacting proteins in ric...
