Comparative genomics of two jute species and insight into fibre biogenesis

Verified

Md. Shahidul Islam, Jennifer A. Saito, Emdadul Mannan Emdad, Borhan Ahmed et al.

Journal: Nature PlantsYear: 2017Citations: 145

Abstract Jute ( Corchorus sp.) is one of the most important sources of natural fibre, covering ∼80% of global bast fibre production 1 . Only Corchorus olitorius and Corchorus capsularis are commercially cultivated, though there are more than 100 Corchorus species 2 in the Malvaceae family. Here we d...

Road dust–driven elemental distribution in megacity Dhaka, Bangladesh: environmental, ecological, and human health risks assessment

Verified

Tapos Kormoker, Md. Humayun Kabir, Rahat Khan, Md. Saiful Islam et al.

Journal: Environmental Science and Pollution ResearchYear: 2021Citations: 58

Road dust, which reflects ambient air quality, receives various pollutants including toxic metal(oid)s from several natural and/or anthropogenic sources. This manuscript reports a comprehensive evaluation of the levels of seventeen metal(oid)s in road dust of a megacity (Dhaka, Bangladesh). Differen...

Evaluation of the elemental distribution in soil samples collected from ship-breaking areas and an adjacent island

Verified

Rahat Khan, Sopan Das, Shaiful Kabir, Md. Ahosan Habib et al.

Journal: Journal of environmental chemical engineeringYear: 2019Citations: 56

Ship-breaking yards in the world mostly reside along the coastal areas which possess diverse elemental contents due to the presence of heavy minerals. So to explain the heavy elemental enrichment of ship-breaking sites in terms of only anthropogenic contribution is insufficient. While studying eleme...

Genome-wide identification and expression profiling of AP2/ERF superfamily genes under stress conditions in dark jute (Corchorus olitorius L.)

Verified

Shah Md Tamim Kabir, Md. Sabbir Hossain, Kazi Khayrul Bashar, Ummay Honi et al.

Journal: Industrial Crops and ProductsYear: 2021Citations: 40

The ethylene-responsive element (AP2/ERF) is one of the keys and conserved transcription factors (TF) in plants that play a vital role in regulating plant growth, development and stress response. A total of 119 CoAP2/ERF genes were identified from the dark jute genome, one of the most important bast...
