The WRKY gene family encodes a large group of transcription factors that regulate genes involved in plant response to biotic and abiotic stresses. Sorghum is a notable grain and forage crop in semi-arid regions because of its unusual tolerance against hot and dry environments. We identified a set of 85 WRKY genes in the S. bicolor genome and classified them into three groups (I–III). Among the ...

The aim of the study was to evaluate gene expression proinflammatory cytokines in esophageal mucosa patients with erosive esophagitis (EE) and non-erosive form (NERD) gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) perform correlation analysis between genes types number refluxes. Methods. This a single-center prospective study. Esophageal samples were taken from lower part esophagus during endoscopy. Ex...

this study was conducted to determine the effects of stomatal size and frequency on stomatal conductance, photosynthesis rate and yield, and to locate the genes controlling these traits. therefore, substitution lines series of ‘timstein’ (tim) into genetic background of ‘chinese spring’ (cs) were tested in a completely randomized block design with three replications under two normal and water s...

this study was done to gain insights into transcriptional regulation of negative energy balance (neb) assoctiated genes. overexpressed genes in neb were identified using microarray and rna-seq data and promoter analysis of these overexpressed genes was applied to identify novel transcription factors. moreever, string database was used to construct a regulatory network of identified transcriptio...

Nucleotide binding site leucine-rich repeats (NBS-LRR) accounting for the main disease resistance proteins play an important role in plant defense against pathogen attack. The current study aimed to identify new NBS-LRR gene members in native types of cucurbit species in Iran. Accordingly, DNAs of melon, cucumber and cantaloupe native types to Iran were identified using three primer pairs. PCR ...
