Biol Open. 2017 Nov 15;6(11):1654-1663. doi: 10.1242/bio.026393.

The transcription factor ZmbHLH16, the maize ortholog of OsTIP2 (OsbHLH142), was isolated in the present study. Tissue expression analysis showed that ZmbHLH16 is preferentially expressed in male reproductive organs. Subcellular location analysis of ZmbHLH16 via rice protoplast indicated that...

Fetal and neonatal programming of postnatal growth and feed efficiency in swine.

Journal of animal science and biotechnology

Ji Y, Wu Z, Dai Z, Wang X, Li J, Wang B, Wu G.
