Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses of a new cytoplasmic male sterile line with a wild Gossypium bickii genetic background.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The recently developed RNA interference (RNAi) technology has created an unprecedented opportunity which allows the function of individual genes in whole organisms or cell lines to be interrogated at genome-wide scale. However, multiple issues, such as off-target effects or low efficacies in knocking down ce...

abstract：BACKGROUND:In many microbial genomes, a strong preference for a small number of codons can be observed in genes whose products are needed by the cell in large quantities. This codon usage bias (CUB) improves translational accuracy and speed and is one of several factors optimizing cell growth. Whereas CUB and the overr...
