Analysis of the leaf transcriptome of Musa acuminata during interaction with My...
Passos, Marco Aurélio Ninômia; Cruz, Viviane Oliveira de; Emediato, Flávia Leonel; Teixeira, Cristiane Camargo de; Azevedo, Vânia Cristina RennóBackground: Although banana (Musa sp.) is an important edible crop, contributing towards poverty alleviation and food security, limited transcriptome datasets are available for use in accelerated molecular-based breeding in this genus. 454 GS-FLX Titanium technology was employed to determine the sequence of gene transcripts in genotypes of Musa acuminata ssp. burmannicoides Calcutta 4 and M. acuminata subgroup ...
The genome sequence of Pseudoplusia includens single nucleopolyhedrovirus and a...
Craveiro, Saluana Rocha; Inglis, Peter W.; Togawa, Roberto Coiti; Grynberg, Priscila; Melo, Fernando Lucas; Ribeiro, Zilda Maria de AraújoBackground: Pseudoplusia includens single nucleopolyhedrovirus (PsinSNPV-IE) is a baculovirus recently identified in our laboratory, with high pathogenicity to the soybean looper, Chrysodeixis includens (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) (Walker, 1858). In Brazil, the C. includens caterpillar is an emerging pest and has caused significant losses in soybean and cotton crops. The PsinSNPV genome was determined and the phyl...
Global transcriptome analysis of two wild relatives of peanut under drought and...
Guimarães, Patricia Messenberg; Brasileiro, Ana Cristina Miranda; Morgante, Carolina Vianna; Martins, Andressa da Cunha QuintanaBackground: Cultivated peanut (Arachis hypogaea) is one of the most widely grown grain legumes in the world, being valued for its high protein and unsaturated oil contents. Worldwide, the major constraints to peanut production are drought and fungal diseases. Wild Arachis species, which are exclusively South American in origin, have high genetic diversity and have been selected during evolution in a range of en...
