as an aromatic and colorful plant of substantive taste, saffron (crocus sativus l.) owes such properties of matter to growing class of the secondary metabolites derived from the carotenoids, apocarotenoids. regarding the critical role of micrornas in secondary metabolic synthesis and the limited number of identified mirnas in c. sativus, on the other hand, one may see the point how the characte...

Reaction constants and heat release during thermophilic aerobic digestion of typical secondary and mixed sludges were determined. Maximum reaction constant, determined by measuring the amounts of biodegradable volatile suspended solids (bVSS) removed, occurred in the temperature range of 55-60 ºC. Measurement of heat releases were carried out, at the same range, by the aid of a temperature ...

adenosine acts as neuromodulator in the brain, which its involvement in a wide range of brain processes and diseases has been studied, such as epilepsy, sleep, anxiety, panic disorder, alzheimer’s disease, parkinson’s disease and schizophrenia. adenosine receptors have been detected: a1r, a2ar (a2ar), a2br, and a3r. a1r and a2r inhibit camp production, while a2ar and a2br stimulate camp product...

Cannabis sativa L. plants produce a diverse array of secondary metabolites. Cannabis cell cultures were treated with biotic and abiotic elicitors to evaluate their effect on secondary metabolism. Metabolic profiles analysed by (1)H NMR spectroscopy and principal component analysis (PCA) showed variations in some of the metabolite pools. However, no cannabinoids were found in either control or e...

Quantitative resistance is polygenically controlled and durable, but the underlying molecular and biochemical mechanisms are poorly understood. Secondary cell wall thickening is a critical process in quantitative resistance, regulated by transcriptional networks. This paper provides compelling evidence on the functionality of StWRKY1 transcription factor, in a compatible interaction of potato-P...

Fiber strength is the key trait that determines fiber quality in cotton, and it is closely related to secondary cell wall synthesis. To understand the mechanism underlying fiber strength, we compared fiber transcriptomes from different G. barbadense chromosome introgression lines (CSILs) that had higher fiber strengths than their recipient, G. hirsutum acc. TM-1. A total of 18,288 differentiall...

The overexpression of miR319 in plants results in delayed senescence, and high levels of miR319-targeted TCP4 transcription factor cause premature onset of this process. However, the underlying mechanisms of this pathway remain elusive. Here, we found that miR319 overexpression results in a decrease in TCP4 abundance and secondary cell wall formation in the stem. Conversely, constitutive expres...

objective: infection with herpes simplex virus type 1 induces viral latency in neuron trigeminal ganglions. the late associated transcript (lat) is uniquely expressed in infected neural cells, however no coding protein associated with these transcripts has been identified in infected cells. it has been shown that six micrornas transcribed from lat have the capabilities to affect the cell signal...
