Down-Regulation of CELLULOSE SYNTHASE Expression in Arabidopsis Seeds as a Possible Means of Increasing Seed Oil and Protein Content, and Reducing Fibre Content
DownloadSpring 2017
Jayawardhane Rathnayaka,Kethmi N
Oleaginous seeds, with higher oil and protein content, have higher economic value in the seed oil industry. Meal resulting from the seed oil extraction process is a widely used protein source in animal feed. The reduction of the complex fibre component of seed tissues may direct more carbon into...

Major intrinsic proteins of Laccaria bicolor: characterization, transcript profiling and functions in ectomycorrhizal associations with Picea glauca
DownloadSpring 2015
In mycorrhizal associations, water transport properties of the fungal hyphae may affect water transport of the host plants. The importance of aquaporins, water-transporting members of the Major Intrinsic Protein (MIP) family, in facilitating water transport has been widely acknowledged and...
