In agreement with that, Throude et al. showed that, from 115 duplicated gene pairs, the vast majority have been neofunctionalized or subfunctionalized, as 88%, 89% and 96% of duplicates, respectively expressed in grain, leaf and root, show distinct expression patterns [ 73].
APs are expressed in different plant organs, such as seed, grain, tuber, leaf, flower, petal, root and pollen, as well as in the digestive fluids of carnivorous plants (Chen et al. [2009]).
The extracted and purified phytoglycogen samples from both grain and leaf contain wide distributions of molecular sizes (analysed by SEC and TEM), with the smallest being "individual" β particles, which collectively form larger α particles; the latter are dominant in the phytoglycogen samples examined here.
No significant differences in grain yield, biomass, leaf area index (LAI), nitrogen accumulation and growth-promoting phytohormones content were observed between MH63 (cry2and and MH63, except that MH63 (cry2A*) had significantly lower grain yield than MH63 at Wuxue city in 2009.
Amino acid measurements revealed that Asp is highly accumulated in both developing grain and flag leaf although the concentration of Asn is much higher than that of Asp in phloem sap.
Therefore, the results of the present experiment suggested that SWD does not change the ratio of accumulation of N during the GFP and remobilization of N from the vegetative tissue in grain N. Longer leaf area duration was correlated with higher yields.
as well as Australia's major grain legume, narrow leaf lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L).; [ 38, 39].
Therefore, shared QTL loci and candidates merit special attention in future work, although the control is seemingly more complex in grain than in leaf.
Positive correlation between RLS and GY indicate physiological processes related to grain filling during leaf senescence as the plants undergo drought stress.
However, for grain yield and leaf area index they were positive and significant both under the drought stress and the non-stress environment (only assessed in Palmira).
Predicted and observed total biomass, grain weight and leaf area were compared for the full model (Figs. 1 and 2 respectively) and summarised as Nash Sutcliffe statistics (Table 2).
