A genome-wide analysis of the phospholipid: diacylglycerol acyltransferase gene family in Gossypium.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) has become a standard method for identification of proteins extracted from biological samples but the huge number and the noise contamination of MS/MS spectra obstruct swift and reliable computer-aided interpretation. Typically, a minor fraction of the spectra per sample (mos...
