Molecular Marker-Assisted Genotyping of Mungbean Yellow Mosaic India Virus Resistant Germplasms of Mungbean and Urdbean
(HUMANA PRESS, 2011-02)Mungbean Yellow Mosaic India Virus(MYMIV) belonging to the genus begomovirus causes the yellow mosaic disease in a number of economically important edible grain legumes including mungbean (Vigna radiata), urdbean (Vigna ... -
Identification and validation of conserved microRNAs along with their differential expression in roots of Vigna unguiculata grown under salt stress
(SPRINGER, 2011-05)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are 20-24 nucleotide long non-coding RNAs known to play important regulatory roles during plant development, organ morphogenesis, and stress responses by controlling gene expression. Although Vigna ... -
Thromboxane A2 receptor and MaxiK-channel intimate interaction supports channel trans-inhibition independent of G-protein activation
(NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2010-11-02)Large conductance voltage- and calcium-activated potassium channels (MaxiK, BK(Ca)) are well known for sustaining cerebral and coronary arterial tone and for their linkage to vasodilator beta-adrenergic receptors. However, ... -
Salt-induced abnormalities on root tip mitotic cells of Allium cepa: prevention by inositol pretreatment
(SPRINGER WIEN, 2010-09)Salt-induced growth reduction of plants is a well-known phenomenon which poses major problem in crop productivity in places where vast majority of land plants are affected by salt. In this report, studies were carried out ... -
Proteomic analysis of salicylic acid induced resistance to Mungbean Yellow Mosaic India Virus in Vigna mungo
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2011-03-01)The role of salicylic acid (SA) in inducing resistance to MYMIV infection in Vigna mungo has been elucidated by proteomics. Twenty-nine proteins identified by MALDI-TOF/TOF, predicted to be involved in stress responses, ... -
Enhanced salt tolerance of transgenic tobacco plants by co-expression of PcINO1 and McIMT1 is accompanied by increased level of myo-inositol and methylated inositol
(SPRINGER WIEN, 2010-09)Introgression and functional expression of either the PcINO1 (l-myo-inositol 1-phosphate synthase or MIPS coding gene from the wild halophytic rice, Porteresia coarctata) or McIMTI (inositol methyl transferase, IMTI coding ... -
Structural characterization of an immunoenhancing heteroglycan isolated from an aqueous extract of an edible mushroom, Lentinus squarrosulus (Mont.) Singer
(ELSEVIER SCI, 2010-11-22)A water-soluble polysaccharide, isolated from the hot water extract of the fruiting bodies of an edible mushroom, Lentinus squarrosulus (Mont.) Singer was found to contain D-galactose, L-fucose, and D-glucose in a molar ... -
In search of decoy/guardee to R genes: deciphering the role of sugars in defense against Fusarium wilt in chickpea.
(Landes Bioscience, 2010-09)Plant responses are coordinately controlled by both external and internal signals. Apt perception of pathogen attack and its appropriate conversion to internal signals ultimately determine the outcome of innate immunity. ... -
Chemical analysis of new water-soluble (1?6)-, (1?4)-a, b-glucan and water-insoluble (1?3)-, (1?4)-b-glucan (Calocyban) from alkaline extract of an edible mushroom, Calocybe indica (Dudh Chattu)
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2010-12-10)Two different glucans (PS-I, water-soluble; and PS-II, water-insoluble) were isolated from the alkaline extract of fruit bodies of an edible mushroom Calocybe indica. On the basis of acid hydrolysis, methylation analysis, ... -
Species-specific AFLP markers for identification of Zingiber officinale, Z. montanum and Z. zerumbet (Zingiberaceae)
(FUNPEC-EDITORA, 2011)The Zingiber genus, which includes the herbs known as gingers, commonly used in cooking, is well known for its medicinal properties, as described in the Indian pharmacopoeia. Different members of this genus, although ... -
Screening of superior fiber-quality-traits among wild accessions of Bambusa balcooa: efficient and non-invasive evaluation of fiber developmental stages
(EDP SCIENCES S A, 2010-09)The search for alternative fiber resources is receiving worldwide attention for the potential role of these fibers in climate and forest restoration. Among bamboos, Bambusa balcooa is generally preferred for industrial use ... -
