A trial of the nests was announced in June to help the breeding success of the endangered species, which biologists believe are vulnerable to the environmental effects of climate change.
The use of high Zn donors with low phytate, selection of segregating lines and advanced fixed lines with low phytate, and integrating phytate phenotyping along with grain Zn in the breeding program will help in developing high Zn lines with low phytate content.
The authors acknowledge GTx animal resources, especially Dr. Jeetendra Eswaraka and Ms. Katie Kail for their help in breeding the DICER knockout mice and subsequent animal experiment.
Understanding the miRNA-mediated regulation network may help in the molecular breeding of broccoli with heat-tolerant head-forming capacity.
We thank R. Natsume for chimeric mouse preparation, Drs. T. Yamamoto and T. Tezuka for PTPMEG antibody, and T. Nagamoto, Y. Nakano, and T. Tsunoda for help in mice breeding.
In the long term, it may help in breeding stress tolerant plants.
Having the DNA information, he said, could help in breeding trees that have higher yields and are more resistant to diseases.
We are grateful to various members of the Kaplan and Park Labs for their help in animal husbandry, breeding, and data collection, including Linsey Arnold, Kristy Gonyer, Martha Baugh-Vonreis, Morgan Movius and Jessie Ellington at Reed College.
Our attempt to silence it not only contributes to elucidating the mechanism of carotenoid accumulation in wheat but may also help in breeding wheat varieties with high provitamin A content through RNA interference (RNAi) to block specific carotenogenic genes in the wheat endosperm.
