MicroRNAs (miRNAs) related to phytohormone signal transduction and self-incompatibility may play an important role in the xenia effect. However, associated research this area is still lacking rabbiteye blueberry ( Vaccinium ashei ). In study, we identified miRNAs, predicted their target genes, performed functional enrichment analysis of screened for miRNAs signaling self-incompatibility. A tota...

Individuals investing in a Venture Capital Trust IPO listed on the London Stock Exchange receive a number of conditional tax incentives; the time related nature of the conditions can create a “lock in effect”. By deriving a dynamic model of the value of these incentives we examine how they influence investors’ pricing and trading decisions. This contributes to the ongoing tax capitalisation deb...

The evolution of multicellularity in animals required the production of extracellular matrices that serve to spatially organize cells according to function. In corals, three matrices are involved in spatial organization: (i) an organic ECM, which facilitates cell-cell and cell-substrate adhesion; (ii) a skeletal organic matrix (SOM), which facilitates controlled deposition of a calcium carbonat...

The objective of this experiment was evaluation of self-compatibility and identification, introduction and selection of late flowering genotypes as cultivars. This experiment was carried out in order to determine the best pollinator for two commercial almond cultivars, 'Shahrood 12' and 'Shahrood 21'. Applied pollinator cultivars were included pollen from 'Shahrood 21', 'Genco', 'Tuno', '5-15' ...

Most Japanese plum-type cultivars are self-incompatible and therefore cross pollination is necessary to ensure fruit set. Moreover, pollen can directly affect fruit development process and quality.  This study was carried out to investigate the effect of 6 pollen sources (‘Goje Sabz’, ‘Simka’, ‘Shablon’, ‘Methley’, ‘Myrobalan’ and ‘Black Star’) on  fruit quantitative and qualitative characteris...
