Wilms tumor gene, Wt1, is abundantly expressed in testis Sertoli cells. Our recent study
demonstrated that Wt1 is involved in spermatogenesis by regulating Sertoli cell polarity. In the …

Cotton (Gossypium) fiber length, a key trait determining fiber yield and quality, is highly
regulated by a class of recently identified phytohormones, strigolactones (SLs). However, the …

In this study, the whole HD-Zip family members of G. hirsutum were identified, and GhHDZ76
was classified into the HD-Zip IV subgroup. GhHDZ76 was predominantly expressed in the …

Background Many elite genes have been identified from the available cotton genomic data,
providing various genetic resources for gene-driven breeding. However, backbone cultivar-…

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to calculate incidence, severity, and risk factors of
nasal pressure injuries due to nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) …

The heavy metal-binding domain is involved in heavy metal transporting and plays a significant
role in plant detoxification. However, the functions of HMAs are less well known in cotton. …

Background The cotton-melon aphid, Aphis gossypii Glover (Hemiptera: Aphididae), is a
polyphagous species with a worldwide distribution and a variety of biotypes. North China is a …

The acrosome is a specialized organelle that covers the anterior part of the sperm nucleus
and plays an essential role in mammalian fertilization. However, the regulatory mechanisms …

The complete mitochondrial genome of the cotton-melon aphid, Aphis gossypii Glover, was
sequenced using a combination of high-throughput sequencing, traditional PCR amplification…

Introduction Transposon plays a vital role in cotton genome evolution, contributing to the
expansion and divergence of genomes within the Gossypium genus. However, knowledge of …
