  • 2/3/2016 - Scientists are beginning to uncover the mechanisms by which plants -- which depend upon sunlight to provide them with energy -- protect themselves from the damaging effects of the sun's ultraviolet rays. (naturalnews.com)
  • Emilio Mármol Sánchez , then at Stockholm University in Sweden, and his colleagues extracted, sequenced and analyzed RNA from a thylacine that had been kept in the collection of the Swedish Museum of Natural History for 130 years. (newscientist.com)
  • When PSTVd enters the plant cell, a specific signal seems to direct it into the nucleus. (degruyter.com)
  • It can be applied to simultaneous detection of multiple RNAs in the same cell. (sinica.edu.tw)
  • Long non-coding RNA maternally expressed 3 (MEG3) inhibits cell proliferation in various types of cancer. (spandidos-publications.com)
  • By analyzing and classifying the plants we try to explain their evolutionary relationship. (lu.se)
  • 6/20/2015 - We have been fed propaganda for years aimed to convince us that, aside from rare incidents and accidents in which radiation has leaked into the environment, nuclear power plants are one of the safest and "cleanest" sources of energy. (naturalnews.com)
  • Presumably, this process involves the interaction between the host's bromodomain-containing viroid RNA-binding protein 1 (VIRP1) and the viroid's TR domain (6). (degruyter.com)
  • After 4 weeks of conversion, we performed global analyses of RNA and protein levels by RNA-sequencing and mass spectrometry. (lu.se)
  • After a brief review of the main issues, methods and tools related to the DE analysis of RNA-Seq data, this article focuses on the impact of both the replicate number and library size in such analyses. (frontiersin.org)
  • This RNA-based pesticide that works through spray-induced gene silencing (SIGS) is a more environmentally friendly way of protecting crops from pre- and post-harvest pest and pathogen attacks. (isaaa.org)
  • Several modifications of this editing system have been established for adoption in a variety of plants, as well as for its improved efficiency and portability, bringing new opportunities for the development of transgene-free improved varieties of economically important crops. (mdpi.com)
  • Interest in duckweed has steadily regained momentum over the past decade, driven in part by the growing need to identify alternative plants from traditional agricultural crops that can help tackle urgent societal challenges, such as climate change and rapid population expansion. (osti.gov)
  • Building on established community resources, duckweed is reemerging as a platform to study plant processes at the systems level and to translate knowledge gained for field deployment to address some of society's pressing needs. (osti.gov)
  • Elevated concentrations of ammonia in water are usually due to effluent discharges from sewage treatment plants or industrial processes, or runoff from fertilized fields or livestock areas. (cdc.gov)
