Journal ArticleDOI

Lung microbiota across age and disease stage in cystic fibrosis.

TL;DR: Community diversity and lung function are greatest in patients less than 10 years of age and lower in older age groups, plateauing at approximately age 25, and lower community diversity correlates with worse lung function in a multivariate regression model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative Analysis of Fruit Metabolites and Pungency Candidate Genes Expression between Bhut Jolokia and Other Capsicum Species.

TL;DR: Comparison expression analysis (through qRT-PCR) of candidate genes involved in capsaicinoid biosynthesis pathway revealed many fold higher expression of majority of the genes in C. chinense compared to C. frutescens and C. annuum suggesting that the possible reason for extremely high pungency might be due to the higher level of candidate gene(s) expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biochemical and structural characterization of a novel halotolerant cellulase from soil metagenome.

TL;DR: The newly identified endoglucanase Cel5R, obtained from soil metagenome that shows high halotolerance and thermal stability, is a promising candidate for various industrial applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of genetics and genomics towards Capsicum translational research

TL;DR: This review tried to highlight the use of molecular markers, comparative mapping and advanced genomics technologies and their integrated use in the translational research of cultivated Capsicums.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of genes involved in fruit development/ripening in Capsicum and development of functional markers

TL;DR: Differential expression of Ehtylene receptor 2-like gene during fruit maturity supported the climacteric behaviour of only C. frutescens (hot pepper), and development of 49 gene based simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers would help in selection of identified genes in Capsicum breeding.
