Excerpts

With the rise of the trend of advocating traditional Chinese medicine and natural medicine in the world, the international recognition of medicines and health food produced from natural Chinese herbal medicine resources has been increasing, and the development and utilization of Chinese herbal medicine resources has become an important trend in the development of medicine in the world.

We also measured the mineral nutrients, and their concentration did not show a clear trend.

QTLpoly calls QTLs that are very close to statistical significance as “putative” QTLs.

All the expressed genes showed a trend of sharp decline and sharp rise near TSS, especially in the highly expressed genes, which not only retained this distribution trend but also gradually formed a binomial peak distribution.

In this experiment, with drought increases, the REL of the leaves showed an increasing trend, reaching a peak at 38.23% in T2 ( Figure 1C ).

Because the Giza179 × Sakha107 cross showed highly significant desirable SCA effects for all the studied traits under normal and water stress conditions, they could be recommended for use in rice hybrid breeding programs.

For all the traits tested, the results of combining ability showed that both GCA and SCA mean squares were extremely significant.

The Role of Plant Evolution in Affecting Leaf Chl Across grasslands in the Tibetan Plateau, we revealed a decreasing trend of leaf Chl evolution among 677 site-species (93 species from 25 families).

The greatest alteration was again found at Br+4, which corresponds to the commercial ripening stage, where a PCA analysis showed a trend separating gf and WT fruits ( Supplementary Figure 3 and Supplementary Data Files 3 , 4 ), but few differences at the single compound level were significant and for many features a clear separation between edited and WT fruits was not identified.

Two days later, at 3 DBA, however, differences between the two treatments became apparent and highly significant in terms of the proportion of normal, living pollen ( Figure 2 ).

To exclude the effect of LD, significant GBS-SNPs overlapping with each other were merged within the 5 Mb genomic window, and highly significant GBS-SNP [i.e., SNP with largest –log 10 (P GC )] within one region was used to declare as representative.

A slightly significant increase was observed from the old MGs to the new MGs.

The chlorophyll contents of wheat infected by powdery mildew decreases significantly, with a highly significant correlation between chlorophyll content and disease index ( Cao et al., 2009 ).

The independent sample t -test of SPSS version 18.0 was used to test the differences between groups, and P < 0.05 and P < 0.01 were considered significant difference and extremely significant difference, respectively.

From 450 to 550 nm, the reflectance of all spectra shows an increasing trend.

At the same time, the dormancy-associated protein 1 (DRM1, Mi06g15100.1 ) followed an increasing and then a decreasing trend in easy-to-flower tissues and followed an opposite trend in hard-to-flower tissues.

All of the 10 detected amino acids showed a trend of increase, especially asparagine ( Supplementary Table 2 ).

According to the performance of experimental data, the vertical distribution of rice leaf angle showed a trend of increasing from bottom to top, and the increase slows down with the rise of relative height.

A previous study reported that plant functional and phylogenetic convergence showed a trend decreased along the sand desertification gradient (Wang et al., 2021b ).

In terms of spray pressure, the R 2 of nozzles ST11002 and IDK12002 showed a decreasing trend with an increase in the spray pressure.

** p < 0.1 indicates extremely significant differences.

Therefore, it is highly significant to study the cold tolerance genes for the genetic improvement of crops.

The third type metacaspase identified in this study also showed a trend of reduced phosphorylation level in absence of Rn1 protein.

At 25°C, the soluble sugar content was the lowest, and with the decrease in temperature, the soluble sugar content showed a trend of increase–decrease–increase.

PPO activity was positively correlated with soluble protein, had a highly significant positive correlation with POD and SOD activities, and had a highly significant negative correlation with chlorophyll content (0.595, 0.758, 0.686, and −0.684, respectively).
