https://www.selleckchem.com/products/mv1035.html The NAC gene family is one of the important plant-specific transcription factor families involved in variety of physiological processes. It has been found in several plant species; however, little is known about the gene family in ginseng, Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer. Here we report identification and systematic analysis of this gene family in ginseng. A total of 89 NAC genes, designated PgNAC01 to PgNAC89, are identified. These genes are alternatively spliced into 251 transcripts at fruiting stage of a four-year-old ginseng plant. The genes of this gene family have five conserved motifs and are clustered into 11 subfamilies, all of which are shared with the genes of the NAC gene families identified in the dicot and monocot model plant species, Arabidopsis and rice. This result indicates that the PgNAC gene family is an ancient and evolutionarily inactive gene family. Gene ontology (GO) analysis shows that the functions of the PgNAC gene family have been substantially differentiated; nevertheless, over 86% the PgNAC transcripts remain functionally correlated. Finally, five of the PgNAC genes, PgNAC05-2, PgNAC41-2, PgNAC48, PgNAC56-1, and PgNAC59, are identified to be involved in plant response to cold stress, suggesting that this gene family plays roles in response to cold stress in ginseng. These results, therefore, provide new insights into functional differentiation and evolution of a gene family in plants and gene resources necessary to comprehensively determine the functions of the PgNAC gene family in response to cold and other abiotic stresses in ginseng.Objectives Larval indices have been used for Ae. albopictus surveillance for many years, while there is limited use in assessing dengue transmission risk and adult mosquito emergence. This study is aimed to explore the relationships between larval indices and the Ae. albopictus density captured by BG-mosquito trap (BG-trap) method, with considering the meteorologi
