EXPRESSION PROFILES OF 12 LATE EMBRYOGENESIS ABUNDANT PROTEIN GENES FROM TAMARIX HISPIDA IN RESPONSE TO ABIOTIC STRESS

Expression Profiles of 12 Late Embryogenesis Abundant Protein Genes from Tamarix hispida in Response to Abiotic Stress

Twelve embryogenesis abundant protein (LEA) genes (named ThLEA-1 to -12) were cloned from Tamarix hispida.The expression profiles of these genes in response to NaCl, PEG, and abscisic acid (ABA) in roots, stems, and leaves of T.hispida were assessed using real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).These ThLEAs all showed tis

Fezf2-positive fork cell-like neurons in the mouse insular cortex.

The fork cell and von Economo neuron, which are found in the insular cortex and/or the anterior cingulate cortex, are defined by their unique morphologies.Their shapes are not pyramidal; the fork cell has two primary apical dendrites and the von Economo neurons are spindle-shaped (bipolar).Presence of such neurons are reported only in the higher an
