Morphological Description of Selected Pigeonpea (\u3ci\u3eCajanus cajan\u3c/i\u3e (L.) Millsp.) Lines

Seventeen pigeonpea pure line accessions selected for desirable forage traits and three commercial cultivars were described according to morphological characters. The following descriptors were used: growth habit, plant height, number of primary and secondary branches, stem color and thickness, leaf shape and hairiness, flower base and second color, pattern of flower streaks, flowering pattern, immature and mature pod color, pod form and hairiness, seed color pattern, base and second seed color, seed eye (region around hilum) color and seed shape and width. Each individual line and cultivar was satisfactorily distinguished from the others by the chosen characters

Avaliação do potencial de armazenamento de sementes de genótipos de Guandu (Cajanus Cajan (L.) Millsp).

Sementes de dez genótipos de guandu foram avaliadas quanto ao potencial de armazenamento através de testes de envelhecimento acelerado e de germinação após armazenamento em condições ambientais não controladas por seis meses. Os genótipos g3, g5, g19b e g58 apresentaram os melhores resultados no teste de envelhecimento acelerado, enquanto que após o armazenamento em condições ambientais não houve diferenciação entre os genótipos quanto apresentaram os melhores resultados no teste de envelhecimento acelerado, enquanto que após o armazenamento em condições ambientais nao houve diferenciação entre os genótipos quanto a sua capacidade germinativa. O primeiro teste, portanto, revelou-se mais eficiente para predizer o potencial de armazenameto, permitindo a classificação dos genótipos de guandu

The enzymes LSD1 and Set1A cooperate with the viral protein HBx to establish an active hepatitis B viral chromatin state

Indexación: Web of ScienceWith about 350 million people chronically infected around the world hepatitis B is a major health problem. Template for progeny HBV synthesis is the viral genome, organized as a minichromosome (cccDNA) inside the hepatocyte nucleus. How viral cccDNA gene expression is regulated by its chromatin structure; more importantly, how the modulation of this structure impacts on viral gene expression remains elusive. Here, we found that the enzyme SetDB1 contributes to setting up a repressed cccDNA chromatin state. This repressive state is activated by the histone lysine demethylase-1 (LSD1). Consistently, inhibiting or reducing LSD1 levels led to repression of viral gene expression. This correlates with the transcriptionally repressive mark H3K9 methylation and reduction on the activating marks H3 acetylation and H3K4 methylation on viral promoters. Investigating the importance of viral proteins we found that LSD1 recruitment to viral promoters was dependent on the viral transactivator protein HBx. Moreover, the histone methyltransferase Set1A and HBx are simultaneously bound to the core promoter, and Set1A expression correlates with cccDNA H3K4 methylation. Our results shed light on the mechanisms of HBV regulation mediated by the cccDNA chromatin structure, offering new therapeutic targets to develop drugs for the treatment of chronically infected HBV patients.http://www.nature.com/articles/srep2590
