PHYTOOLS 2.0: AN UPDATED R ECOSYSTEM FOR PHYLOGENETIC COMPARATIVE METHODS (AND OTHER THINGS)


Genome-Wide Identification of Papain-Like Cysteine Proteases in Gossypium hirsutum and Functional Characterization in Response to Verticillium dahliae

Cotton, a natural fiber producing crop of huge importance, is often prone to attack of Verticillium dahliae.Papain-like cysteine proteases (PLCPs) constitute a large family in plants and were proposed to involve in plant defense against pathogen attack in a number of studies.However, there is no detailed characterization of PLCP genes in cotton aga

Achievement of Unidirectional Aluminum Tin Oxide/UV-Curable Polymer Hybrid Film via UV Nanoimprinting Lithography for Uniform Liquid Crystal Alignment

A uniform unidirectional nanostructure composed of aluminum tin oxide and ultraviolet (UV)-curable polymer is introduced herein.The nanostructure was produced by UV-nanoimprint lithography (UV-NIL), and the fabricated hybrid film was used as a uniform liquid crystal (LC) alignment layer.Atomic force microscopy and line profile analysis were perform
