HIGH-LEVEL ACCUMULATION OF EXOGENOUS SMALL RNAS NOT AFFECTING ENDOGENOUS SMALL RNA BIOGENESIS AND FUNCTION IN PLANTS

High-Level Accumulation of Exogenous Small RNAs Not Affecting Endogenous Small RNA Biogenesis and Function in Plants

RNA silencing is a fundamental plant defence and gene control mechanism in plants that are directed by 20-24 nucleotide (nt) small interfering RNA (siRNA) and microRNA (miRNA).Infection of plants with viral pathogens or transformation of plants with RNA interference (RNAi) constructs is usually associated with high levels of exogenous siRNAs, but i

Basic study on promotion of thawing frozen soil by shock loading

The aim of study is to confirm a new technique that can crush the frozen soil and/or ice block using underwater shock wave generated by the underwater explosion of explosive.This technique can lead to the earlier sowing, which can have the larger harvest because the duration of sunshine increases.Especially, in Hokkaido prefecture, Japan, if the so
