Recent studies proved that miRNAs have a regulatory role in both abiotic and biotic stress in plants. In our study, we measure the expression profile of 10 known abiotic stress miRNAs in hexaploid bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), under drought stress in the seedling stage. Significant upregulation was observed with osa_miR319a-3p.2-3, miR5048, gmamiR5783, hci-miR156a, bdi-miR159b-3p, zma-miR164g-3, ssl-miR398 and ptcmiR482c- 5p. Among these, hci-miR156a, and osa-miR319a-3p.2-3 showed downregulation after 12 h compared to 2 h treatment. Only osa-miR172b was downregulated. This variant and dynamic expression patterns is good evidence and certain indicator of miRNA correlation to drought tolerance mechanisms present in wheat. This is the first data that provides accurate measurement of some drought related miRNA in wheat in the early exposure to drought stress and in the identification of several genes that could be implicated in drought tolerance and could be used for improving wheat and other cereal crops in this respect.","PeriodicalId":31811,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Journal of Genetics and Cytology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48344409","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this study was to evaluate the genotoxic effect of MSG on V. faba seedlings. Moreover, the effects of adding some natural materials to MSG; e.g. chitosan, four different spices (black pepper, cumin, chili pepper and ginger) and three different forms of black nightshade plant; BNS (leaves, immature and mature fruits) were tested. Seeds of V. faba were treated with single concentration of MSG (10 g/L); alone (as a positive control) or combined with 1% aqueous solution of each of these natural additives. Results indicated that the treatment of MSG reduced germination value than negative control at 72 h. On the other hand, the use of black pepper and cumin at 48 h, in addition, chitosan at 72 h significantly increased seed germination compared to negative and positive control. The highest root length value (3.11 cm) was observed for cumin treatment. Exposure to MSG and combined treatments showed an inhibitory effect on cell division and caused a general decline in mitotic index. Additionally, all treatments caused significantly increase in the percentage of abnormal cells, except cumin which did not differ significantly from the negative control. By analyzing the RAPD-PCR with twelve arbitrary primers, all treatments caused slight reductions in genomic template stability (GTS) values compared to the negative control. The highest value of GTS (87.50%) was recorded for positive control, while treatments of black pepper and cumin exhibited the lowest value (78.12% for each). These results indicated that all the tested materials may interact with MSG causing genotoxic effects. In general, black pepper and cumin had the lowest genotoxic effects.","PeriodicalId":31811,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Journal of Genetics and Cytology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43515574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It exhibited optimum activity of 328.3 U/mg after ten min, incubation at 65C and pH 7. Both ammonium sulphate and sephadex G-100 purification methods enhanced the yield of Alcaligenes faecalis strain HFW-9081 to 125 and 121% as well as the specific activity to 458.9 and 590 U/mg, respectively, compared to cell free supernatant. However, relative protease activity was reduced to 35.8% when H2O2 was added. On the other hand, the activities increased 7.5 folds when Tween-80 was used as a surfactant. Genetic background of the protease genes in Alcaligenes faecalis was analyzed using bioinformatics database for the proteases amino acids sequences in the desired bacteria; and it specified that Alcaligenes faecalis has four different protease genes; these genes encode for various peptidases family groups. The variation in the peptidase family groups provides the protease enzymes with many features making them able to remain active under various environmental stresses.

In this study, genetic diversity of some cultivars belonging to three species (Allium sativum L., Allium cepa L. and Allium currat L.) of this genus was investigated using sixteen SSR and three ISSR primers. All primers generated a total of 100 fragments, distributed as, 39% monomorphic, 33% polymorphic and 28% unique. The percentage of polymorphism identified by SSR and ISSR primers varied between 25 and 92.9%. With the highest variability detected for SSR and ISSR regions, the results of similarity demonstrated the presence of a concealable relationship amongst Allium species with a significant degree of similarity among clones belonging to the same species of this genus. DNA sequence of the monomorphic band generated from the five clones and cultivars used in the present work by one of the SSR primers (Asa20) were aligned together and with the earlier obtained sequences belonging to different genera and species. Although all of these sequences were obtained from one monomorphic band using the same primer, the pairwise alignment of the two onion clones showed only 75.49% of homology and nearly the same percentage of homology (73.76%) was obtained between the sequences generated from the two garlic clones. The dendrogram based on genetic similarities between cultivars showed three major clusters. Cluster 1 included only the Egyptian Leek cultivar; cluster 2 comprised the two garlic clones and cluster 3 composed of the two onion cultivars.
