A novel constitutive promoter and its downstream 5′ UTR derived from cotton (Gossypium spp.) drive high-level gene expression in stem and leaf tissues
Published 2016-04-01Get full textThe development of genetically modified crops requires new promoters and regulatory regions to achieve high gene expression and/or tissue-specific expression patterns in plants. To obtain promoter sequences of plants with new properties, we analyzed the expression traits of the cotton (Gossypium hir...

Cloning and Characterization of a Somatic Embryogenesis Receptor-Like Kinase Gene in Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum)
Published 2012-06-01Get full textA novel gene, GhSERK1, was identified in cotton. It encoded a protein belonging to the somatic embryogenesis receptorlike kinase (SERK) family. The genomic sequence of GhSERK1 was 6920 bp in length, containing a predicted transcriptional start site (TSS). Its full-length cDNA was 2502 bp, encoding a...

Overexpression of Brassica napus cytosolic fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphatase genes significantly enhanced tobacco growth and biomass
Published 2022-01-01Get full textElevated activities of cytosolic fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (cyFBPase) and sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphatase (SBPase) are associated with higher yields in plants. In this study, the expression levels of the cyFBPase and SBPase genes were increased by overexpressing rape (Brassica napus) cDNA in toba...

Modeling of Two Low-amplitude Radially Pulsating δ Scuti Stars: KIC 12602250 and KIC 5768203
Published 2025-01-01Get full textIn this research, we conducted systematic photometric, spectroscopic, and theoretical modeling analyses of two δ Scuti stars—KIC 12602250 and KIC 5768203—that pulsate only in radial modes. We collected their relevant photometric and spectroscopic parameters from multiple catalogs and estimated the a...
