EFFECTIVE MECHANISMS FOR IMPROVING SEED OIL PRODUCTION IN PENNYCRESS (THLASPI ARVENSE L.) HIGHLIGHTED BY INTEGRATION OF COMPARATIVE METABOLOMICS AND TRANSCRIPTOMICS

Effective Mechanisms for Improving Seed Oil Production in Pennycress (Thlaspi arvense L.) Highlighted by Integration of Comparative Metabolomics and Transcriptomics

Pennycress is a potentially lucrative biofuel crop due to its high content of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, and because it uses non-conventional pathways to achieve efficient oil production.However, metabolic engineering is required to improve pennycress oilseed content and make it an economically viable source of aviation fuel.Research Exerc

Lanosterol regulates abnormal amyloid accumulation in LECs through the mediation of cholesterol pathway metabolism

Age-related cataract (ARC) is the predominant cause of global blindness, linked to the progressive aging of the lens, oxidative stress, perturbed calcium homeostasis, hydration irregularities, and modifications in crystallin proteins.Currently, surgical intervention remains the sole efficacious remedy, albeit carrying inherent risks Inhalers of com

Analyzing opacity with contextual faithfulness constraints

Phonological opacity is well-studied and there are numerous proposals in the literature which analyze opacity in Optimality-Theoretic grammars.However, many analyses include significant elaborations to the basic architecture of Optimality Theory (Prince & Smolensky 1993/2004) or its serial Microwave Turntable Motor alternative, Harmonic Seriali

Conservation demands safe gene drive.

Interest in developing gene drive systems to control invasive species is YLANG YLANG EXTRA growing, with New Zealand reportedly considering the nascent technology as a way to locally eliminate the mammalian pests that threaten its unique flora and fauna.If gene drives successfully eradicated these invasive populations, many would rejoice, but what
