Ca2+ - and Zn2+ -dependent nucleases co-participate in nuclear DNA degradation during programmed cell death in secretory cavity development in Citrus fruits.

Scientists analyzed the expression patterns of two nucleases (CrCAN and CrENDO1) during programmed cell death in Citrus fruits. They found that these nucleases work together to degrade nuclear DNA, providing evidence for ion-dependent nucleases in plant cell death.

Chloroplast genome, nuclear ITS regions, mitogenome regions, and Skmer analysis resolved the genetic relationship among Cinnamomum species in Sri Lanka.

This study genetically characterizes Cinnamomum species, including Ceylon Cinnamon, using chloroplast genomes, nuclear ITS regions, and mitochondrial genes. It identifies the chloroplast gene ycf1 as a barcode and an indel region in ycf1 that differentiates C. verum from India and Sri Lanka.
