Pectate lyase (PEL) is an endogenous pectin-degrading enzyme that is capable of cleaving α-1,4-glycosidic linkages in demethylated pectin by β-elimination. It is a ubiquitous enzyme in higher plants and is encoded by at least 26, 22, and...
Genetic dissection of yield traits in super hybrid rice Xieyou9308 using both uncond...
Rice is a fundamentally important staple crop, and improving rice yields has remained a major goal in world agriculture. Super hybrid rice shows great advantages in grain yield and biomass in comparison with conventional rice varieties.

Nitrogen is a key macronutrient required by plants for growth and development, and important for the yield and productivity of crops. Rice plants grown in paddy fields use ammonium as the major source of inorganic nitrogen.
A simple and efficient method for CRISPR/Cas9-induced mutant screening
April 10th，2017
The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) system provides a technological breakthrough in mutant generation. Several methods such as the polymerase chain reaction (PCR)/restriction enzyme (RE...
