Iftikhar, R., Wang, X., Rahman, Habibur
Broadening the genetic base of the C genome of Brassica napus canola by use of B. oleracea is important. In this study, the prospect of developing B. napus canola lines from B. napus × B. oleracea var. alboglabra, botrytis, italica and capitata crosses and the effect of backcrossing the F1’s to...

Mixing displays a major role in the growth of photosynthesis microorganisms in active suspensions: it gives access to nutrients, improves the microorganisms’ exposure to light, and homogenizes temperature distribution in photobioreactors (PBRs). Therefore, mixing is an essential factor in the...

High-performance variants of plant diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 generated by directed evolution provide insights into structure function

Chen, Guanqun, Vanhercke, Thomas, Chen, Yongyan, Mietkiewska, Elzbieta, Siloto, Rodrigo M. P., Niesner, Nathalie, Xu, Yang, Caldo, Kristian Mark P., Weselake, Randall J., El Tahchy, Anna
Diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1) catalyzes the acyl-CoA-dependent biosynthesis of triacylglycerol, the predominant component of seed oil. In some oil crops, including Brassica napus, the level of DGAT1 activity can have a substantial effect on triacylglycerol production....

Further improving of seed yield, other agronomic and seed quality traits in spring canola Brassica napus requires broadening of genetic diversity in this crop. The European winter oilseed B. napus is known to be genetically diverse from spring oilseed B. napus. We hypothesized that elite spring...

Indole-3-Acetic Acid is produced by Emiliania Huxleyi Coccolith-bearing cells and triggers a physiological response in bald cells

Bramucci, Anna R., Labeeuw, Leen, Khey, Joleen, Case, Rebecca J., de la Mata, A. Paulina, Harynuk, James, Atwal, Harjot
Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) is an auxin produced by terrestrial plants which influences development through a variety of cellular mechanisms, such as altering cell orientation, organ development, fertility, and cell elongation. IAA is also produced by bacterial pathogens and symbionts of plants...

Owttrim, George W., Coleman, John R.
A recA-like gene isolated from the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis was cloned and partially characterized. When introduced into Escherichia coli recA mutants, the 7.5-kilobase-pair plasmid-borne DNA insert restored resistance to methyl methanesulfonate and UV irradiation, as well as...

Multiple mechanisms contribute to increased neutral lipid accumulation in yeast producing recombinant variants of plant diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1

Shah, Saleh, Xu, Yang, Ramakrishnan, Geetha, Caldo, Kristian Mark P., Chen, Guanqun, Ozga, Jocelyn, Greer, Michael S., Lemieux, M. Joanne, Wu, Limin, Weselake, Randall J.
The apparent bottleneck in the accumulation of oil during seed development in some oleaginous plant species is the formation of triacylglycerol (TAG) by the acyl-CoA-dependent acylation of sn-1,2- diacylglycerol catalyzed by diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT, EC 2.3.1.20). Improving DGAT...

Xu, Yang, Caldo, Kristian Mark P., Pal‐Nath, Dipasmita, Ozga, Jocelyn, Lemieux, M. Joanne, Weselake, Randall J., Chen, Guanqun
Triacylglycerol (TAG) is the major storage lipid in most terrestrial plants and microalgae, and has great nutritional and industrial value. Since the demand for vegetable oil is consistently increasing, numerous studies have been focused on improving the TAG content and modifying the fatty‐acid...

The expression of the cyanobacterial recA gene, isolated from Anabaena variabilis, has been examined at the levels of transcript and protein abundance. Exposure of the cyanobacterium to a variety of DNA-damaging agents, including mitomycin C, methyl methanesulfonate, and UV irradiation, results...
