- Company Profile:
A serological test in which one antibody carried within an enzyme releases a colored compound.
Industry:Agriculture
Difference in DNA sequence among individuals or lines that permits genetic linkage analysis or DNA marker-aided selection.
Industry:Agriculture
Amplification of specific sequences of DNA utilizing biological vectors.
Industry:Agriculture
An enzyme that catalyzes the polymerization of successive nucleotides during replication of DNA.
Industry:Agriculture
A transformation procedure in which naked DNA is added to a suspension of protoplasts. The protoplasts are then rendered naked by disrupting the cell membrane through chemical treatment (i.e., PEG) or through electroporation allowing DNA to pass into the cell.
Industry:Agriculture
Method to separate DNA or proteins by altering the pH inside a gel. As the molecules migrate in the electric field, they encounter denaturing conditions, which slow down their mobility. Different molecules respond differently to the denaturation condition and therefore respond at a different severity of denaturant (resulting in a loss of mobility at a different point in the gel).
Industry:Agriculture
Family of plant-sucking insects characterized by the presence of a large movable spur at the apex of the hind tibia. They are usually slow moving and move sideward or backward. They stay at the basal parts of the rice plant. Examples are planthoppers.
Industry:Agriculture
A method of general DNA amplification (cf., PCR) using a single primer of between 5 and 20 nucleotides in length (8-mers are optimal).
Industry:Agriculture
A time-weighted land-use index that evaluates the fraction of the total hectare-months available to the farmer that are used for crop production. In simpler terms, the CII measures how many crops are grown a year on a given piece of land. A CII of 0.5 (Or 50%) means that the land is cultivated every second year; CII of 3 (or 300%) indicates that three crops are gown in a row during every calender year. Actual values can often be improved, climatic conditions and water availability permitting. CII applies to all crops. Rainfed wheat can be followed by irrigated or lowland rice.
Industry:Agriculture
Synthetic RNA produced by transcription from a specific DNA single-stranded template.
