TL;DR: The use of the manual annotation tool WebApollo facilitated manual checking and correction of gene models enabling improvement of computational prediction, especially relevant for certain types of gene families such as the EXPANSIN like genes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controlled Cytokinin Production in Transgenic Tobacco Using a Copper-Inducible Promoter
TL;DR: It is confirmed that endogenous cytokinin concentrations in tobacco transformants can be temporally and spatially controlled by the induction of ipt gene expression through the Cu-controllable gene-expression system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of vacuolar invertase inhibitor mRNA in potato tubers contributes to cold-induced sweetening resistance and includes spliced hybrid mRNA variants

TL;DR: Evidence for increased RNA splicing activity was detected in several resistant lines, a mechanism that in some circumstances may generate a range of proteins with additional functional capacity to aid adaptability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of Selenium Enrichment and Measurement in Brassicaceous Vegetables, and Their Application to Human Health.

TL;DR: The close relationship between Se and S metabolism in this plant family is investigated, with particular emphasis on the selenoglucosinolates, and the methodologies available for identifying and quantifying further novel Se-containing compounds in plants are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Post-translational regulation of acid invertase activity by vacuolar invertase inhibitor affects resistance to cold-induced sweetening of potato tubers.
TL;DR: During cold storage, overexpression of the INH2 vacuolar invertase inhibitor gene in CIS-susceptible potato tubers reduced acid invert enzyme activity, the accumulation of reducing sugars and the generation of acrylamide in subsequent fry tests.
