MATURITY2, A NOVEL REGULATOR OF FLOWERING TIME IN SORGHUM BICOLOR, INCREASES EXPRESSION OF SBPRR37 AND SBCO IN LONG DAYS DELAYING FLOWERING.

Maturity2, a novel regulator of flowering time in Sorghum bicolor, increases expression of SbPRR37 and SbCO in long days delaying flowering.

Sorghum bicolor is a drought-resilient facultative short-day C4 grass Pendant that is grown for grain, forage, and biomass.Adaptation of sorghum for grain production in temperate regions resulted in the selection of mutations in Maturity loci (Ma1 -Ma6) that reduced photoperiod sensitivity and resulted in earlier flowering in long days.Prior studie

Complete mitochondrial genome of the deep-sea asymmetrical barnacle Altiverruca navicula (Cirripedia, Thoracica, Verrucumorpha)

The hitherto suborder Verrucomorpha contains asymmetrical barnacles of two groups: the true Verrucomorpha (Eoverruca + Verrucidae) and the Neoverrucidae.Here, we determined the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Altiverruca navicula, a Pendant true Verrucomorpha species.The mitogenome was 15,976 base pairs in length and had the typical pancrustac
