Isolation and characterization of nuclei from rice embryos.

Isolation and molecular characterization of the RecQsim gene in Arabidopsis, rice (Oryza sativa) and rape (Brassica napus)

In any organism that reproduces sexually, DNA Recombination plays vital roles in the generation of allelic diversity as well as in preservation of genome fidelity. Genome fidelity is particularly important in plants because mutations occurring during the development of flowering plants are heritable and can be passed onto the next generation. One of the gene families that play crucial roles in ...

Broadening Gene Pool of Rice for Resistance to Biotic Stresses Through Wide Hybridization

Variability in the cultivated germplasm for economic traits such as resistance to rice tungro virus, sheathblight, yellow stem borer, drought and salt tolerance is limited. This necessitated search for the genes in secondary and tertiary gene pool of genus Oryza. Fortunately, wild species are an important reservoir ofuseful genes for resistance to major disease, pest and tolerance t...

Isolation and identification of Eurotium species from contaminated rice by morphology and DNA sequencing

30 milled rice samples were collected from retailers in four states of Malaysia. These samples were evaluated for Eurotium spp. contaminations by direct plating on malt extract salt agar (MESA). All Eurotium were isolated and identified based on morphology and nucleotide sequences of internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) and ITS2 of the rDNA.  Four Eurotium species (E. rubrum, E. amstelodami, E....
