IntroductionThe anatomy of rice leaves is closely related to photosynthesis and grain yield.Therefore, exploring insight into the quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and alleles related to rice flag leaf anatomical and vein traits is vital for rice improvement.MethodsHere, we aimed to explore the genetic architecture of eight flag leaf traits using one
Background: Cape Fruits and vegetables are healthy because they contain good nutrients and secondary metabolites that keep the body healthy and disease-free.Post-harvest losses of fresh fruits and vegetables limit access and availability as a result of foodborne infections and poor storage technologies.The selection of fruits and vegetables depend
Abstract Background This study documents cycad-human relationships in Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras over the last 6000 years.The impetus was acute need for a better understanding of previously undocumented uses of cycads in this region, and the need to improve cycad conservation strategies using ethnobotanical data.We hypothe
Abstract Reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) interfaced to electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) is commonly used for the identification of peptides from proteolytically cleaved proteins embedded in a polyacrylamide gel matrix as well as for metabolomics screening.HPLC separations are time consuming (30-60 min avera
