摘要:
Systems and methods for amplification and detection of metabolite signals are provided. A plurality of files containing m/z signal intensities may be captured by a mass spectrometer. Each file of m/z signal intensities may include signals associated with mass measurements of compounds in a respective sample. The datasets of the chromatograms may be combined into a merged spectra of m/z signal intensities. A concentration of signals may be identified in the merged chromatogram as following a specified statistical distribution and determined to be indicative of a metabolite when the concentration of signals corresponds to one or more mass measurements associated with a metabolite and an isotopologue of the metabolite.

Provided herein is the identification of insect RNAi target genes (IRTG) involved in gut microbial clearance and containment and examples of a novel biotechnology for devising pesticidal RNAi approaches.
摘要:
Antimicrobial nodule specific cysteine rich (NCR2) peptides and proteins are disclosed along with compositions comprising the NCR2 peptides or NCR2 proteins and transgenic or genetically edited plants or microorganisms that express the NCR2 peptides or proteins to inhibit growth of pathogenic microbes. Such NCR2 peptides, proteins, compositions, plants, and microorganisms can provide for inhibition of fungal and oomycete growth.

摘要:
Provided are plants that express, or overexpress, a pPLAIIIδ protein. Constitutive or seed-specific expression of pPLAIIIδ protein in Arabidopsis increases seed oil content, the amount of C20 and C22 fatty acids, and the amount of C56, C58, and C60 triacylglycerols, effectively resulting in significantly higher oil yield per plant. Use of pPLAIIIδ is therefore an effective biotechnological tool to significantly increase plant yield, including oil, and the amount of high value long chain fatty acids in agricultural and horticultural crops, especially oilseed crops.

摘要:
Compositions and methods for increasing plant growth for higher crop yield are provided. The methods involve the expression in a plant of interest of at least one C4 transporter coding sequence. Plants showing increased expression of one or more C4 transporter coding sequence of interest are encompassed by the invention. It is recognized that any method for increasing the expression of the C4 transporter coding sequences in a plant of interest can be used in the practice of the methods disclosed herein. Such methods include transformation, breeding and the like. Increased expression of the C4 transporter coding sequences in the plant of interest results in yield gains. Expression cassettes and vectors comprising the C4 transporter sequences disclosed herein are also provided herein. Methods for identifying genes under positive selection in plants that use C4 photosynthesis are disclosed and provided herein.

摘要:
Methods for obtaining plants with decreased responses to auxins by reducing exprssion of endogenous MYB77 genes in plants are disclosed. Also disclosed are methods of using plant MYB77 transcriptional promoter sequences to drive expression of heterologous genes in select plant cells at select times in plant development. Methods of obtaining plants with decreased lateral root formation when grown under nutrient deficient conditions by reducing expression of endogenous MYB77 and transgenic plants with reduced expression of endogenous MYB77 genes in are also provided.
