IDENTIFICATION AND FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERIZATION OF A MICROTUBULE-ASSOCIATED PROTEIN, GHCLASP2, FROM UPLAND COTTON (GOSSYPIUM HIRSUTUM L.)

Identification and Functional Characterization of a Microtubule-Associated Protein, GhCLASP2, From Upland Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)

Cytoplasmic linker-associated proteins (CLASPs) are microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) involved in regulation of dynamics of microtubules (MTs) that play an important role in plant growth and development.In this study, we identified cotton CLASP genes and investigated the function of GhCLASP2.GhCLASP2 was mainly expressed in stem and developing

A Review on Biosurfactant Applications in the Petroleum Industry

The inadequacy of worldwide fossil fuel resources, combined with increasing energy demands, encourages global attention to either using alternative energy resources or improving the recovery factor and produce larger quantities from present reservoirs.Among all enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods, surfactant injection is a well-known technique that

The Effects of Cation Ratios on Root Lamella Suberization in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) with Contrasting Salt Tolerance

Rice is an important produced cereal in the world.We evaluated the effect of salt compositions including NaCl and Na2SO4 on suberin lamellae as a major barrier to radial ion and water movements in two rice genotypes representing contrasting salt tolerance levels under salinity stress.Two rice genotypes, Fajr as salt tolerant and Khazar as salt sens
