Trichostatin A selectively suppresses the cold-induced transcription of the ZmDREB1 gene in maize.
TL;DR: It is reported that cold treatment highly induces the up-regulation of HDACs, leading to global deacetylation of histones H3 and H4, and thatHDACs positively regulate the expression of the cold-induced ZmDREB1 gene and that this activation is both gene and site selective.

45S rDNA regions are chromosome fragile sites expressed as gaps in vitro on metaphase chromosomes of root-tip meristematic cells in Lolium spp.
TL;DR: The chromosome lesions observed in this study are very similar cytologically to that of fragile sites observed in human chromosomes, and thus it is concluded that the high frequency of chromosome lesions in vitro in Lolium species is the result of the expression of 45S rDNA fragile sites.

Trichostatin A and 5-azacytidine both cause an increase in global histone H4 acetylation and a decrease in global DNA and H3K9 methylation during mitosis in maize
TL;DR: The interchangeable effects of 5-azacytidine and trichostatin A on H4 acetylation, DNA methylation and H3K9 dimethylation indicate a mutually reinforcing action between histone acetylations, DNAmethylation and histone methylation with respect to chromatin modification.
Maximizing specificity and yield of PCR by the quantum dot itself rather than property of the quantum dot surface.
TL;DR: It is found that semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) dramatically improved both product yield and specificity of PCR, and addition of MAA-coated QDs into the PCR reagent produced specific PCR products without nonspecific sequence amplification.

Telomere and 45S rDNA sequences are structurally linked on the chromosomes in Chrysanthemum segetum L.
TL;DR: The results suggested that homologous recombination occurred between tandem repeat units of rDNA sequences or telomere repeats at the chromosome terminus.
