  • Comparative Transcriptome Analysis of Cultivated and Wild Seeds of Salvia
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Comparative transcriptome analysis of cultivated and wild seeds of Salvia hispanica (chia) Received: 17 October 2018 Pablo Peláez1, Domancar Orona-Tamayo2,4, Salvador Montes-Hernández3, Accepted: 17 May 2019 María Elena Valverde2, Octavio Paredes-López2 & Angélica Cibrián-Jaramillo 1 Published: xx xx xxxx Salvia hispanica (chia) constituted an important crop for pre-Columbian civilizations and is considered a superfood for its rich content of essential fatty acids and proteins. In this study, we performed the frst comprehensive comparative transcriptome analysis between seeds from cultivated varieties and from accessions collected from native wild populations in Mexico. From the 69,873 annotated transcripts assembled de novo, enriched functional categories and pathways revealed that the lipid metabolism was one of the most activated processes. Expression changes were detected among wild and cultivated groups and among growth conditions in transcripts responsible for triacylglycerol and fatty acid synthesis and degradation. We also quantifed storage protein fractions that revealed variation concerning nutraceutical proteins such as albumin and glutelin. Genetic diversity estimated with 23,641 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) revealed that most of the variation remains in the wild populations, and that a wild-type cultivated variety is genetically related to wild accessions. Additionally, we reported 202 simple sequence repeat (SSRs) markers useful for population genetic studies. Overall, we provided transcript variation that can be used for breeding programs to further develop chia varieties with enhanced nutraceutical traits and tools to explore the genetic diversity and history of this rediscovered plant. Mesoamerica is considered one of the most important centers of plant domestication1.

  • Whole Grain Goodness
    Nutrition Know-How Child Health Specialty Clinics Whole Grain Goodness What is a whole grain? A whole grain food has all three parts of the grain, and each part has different vitamins and minerals that work together to provide nutrition. Many people only think of wheat and other bread products when they hear the word “grain,” but there are many foods that contain whole grains. Why do whole grains matter? Whole grains are higher in fiber, iron and vitamins than processed grains like white flour. Fiber can help your child pass bowel movements, and iron and vitamins are very important for a child’s growth and development. People who eat more whole grains are less likely to struggle with their weight and other serious health conditions like colon cancer. How much whole grain does my child need? This depends on your child’s age and size. A good guide is to make at least half of your child’s grain servings whole grain. For example, if your child eats 6 servings of grain, at least 3 of those servings should be whole grain. How do I know if a food is whole grain? Look for the words “whole grain” on the package. Foods with at least 51% whole grain will have a special label on them like the one shown at the top of this page. You can also check the ingredients; to be a whole grain product a food should have a whole grain listed as the first ingredient. A whole grain bread will have “whole wheat flour” as the first ingredient.

Lipids in Health and Disease (2016) 15:162 DOI 10.1186/s12944-016-0329-x RESEARCH Open Access Fatty acids characterization, oxidative perspectives and consumer acceptability of oil extracted from pre-treated chia (Salvia hispanica L.) seeds Muhammad Imran1*, Muhammad Nadeem2, Muhammad Faisal Manzoor3, Amna Javed3, Zafar Ali3, Muhammad Nadeem Akhtar4, Muhammad Ali3 and Yasir Hussain3 Abstract Background: Chia (Salvia hispanica L.) seeds have been described as a good source of lipids, protein, dietary fiber, polyphenolic compounds and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. The consumption of chia seed oil helps to improve biological markers related to metabolic syndrome diseases. The oil yield and fatty acids composition of chia oil is affected by several factors such as pre-treatment method and size reduction practices. Therefore, the main mandate of present investigate was to study the effect of different seed pre-treatments on yield, fatty acids composition and sensory acceptability of chia oil at different storage intervals and conditions. Methods: Raw chia seeds were characterized for proximate composition. Raw chia seeds after milling were passed through sieves to obtain different particle size fractions (coarse, seed particle size ≥ 10 mm; medium, seed particle size ≥ 5 mm; fine, seed particle size ≤ 5 mm). Heat pre-treatment of chia seeds included the water boiling (100 C°, 5 min), microwave roasting (900 W, 2450 MHz, 2.5 min), oven drying (105 ± 5 °C, 1 h) and autoclaving (121 °C, 15 lbs, 15 min) process. Extracted oil from pre-treated chia seeds were stored in Tin cans at 25 ± 2 °C and 4 ± 1 °C for 60–days and examined for physical (color, melting point, refractive index), oxidative (iodine value, peroxide value, free fatty acids), fatty acids (palmitic, stearic, oleic, linoleic, α-linolenic) composition and sensory (appearance, flavor, overall acceptability) parameters, respectively.

  • Protecting Minnesota's Wild Rice Lakes
    Protecting Minnesota’s wild rice lakes June 2015 Snapshots Minnesota is the epicenter of the world’s natural wild rice. Protected, undeveloped shoreland is important to preserving sensitive wild rice lakes for current and future generations of wildlife and outdoor enthusiasts. Although once found throughout most of the state, today, the heart of the state’s wild rice acreage falls within eleven counties: Aitkin, Becker, Beltrami, Carlton, Cass, Clearwater, Crow Wing, Hubbard, Itasca, St. Louis and Wadena. Wild rice is important both socially and culturally in Minnesota. Wild rice also provides important ecological benefits. Wild rice shoreland encompasses a complex of shallow lakes, rivers, and shallow bays of deeper lakes that support rice and provide some of the most important habitat for wetland- dependent wildlife species in Minnesota. Wild rice habitat is especially important to Minnesota’s migrating and breeding waterfowl and provides Minnesotans with unique recreation opportunities: hunting waterfowl and harvesting the rice itself for food. Wild rice also improves and protects water A young man harvests wild quality by keeping soil and nutrients in place and acting as a buffer to slow rice. winds across wetlands. The Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) has received Outdoor Heritage Funds to support and protect our state grain. Working in cooperation with the DNR and soil and water conservation districts, BWSR will complete 46 easement projects on 29 lakes and rivers. Funding for wild rice protection began in 2012. This first phase of the project was awarded $1.89 million which yielded 18 completed projects extending permanent protection to almost 10 miles of wild rice shoreland.

  • Expanded Understanding of Eleusine Diversity and Evolution
    Expanded Understanding of Eleusine Diversity and Evolution by Hui Zhang A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama August 4, 2018 Key words: Next-generation sequencing, Illumina, Genome, Transcriptome, Phylogenetic, Goosegrass Copyright 2018 by Hui Zhang Approved by J. Scott McElroy, Chair, Professor of Crop, Soil and Environmental Sciences Charles Y. Chen, Professor of Crop, Soil and Environmental Sciences Leslie R. Goertzen, Associate Professor of Biological Sciences Eric Peatman, Associate Professor of Fisheries, Aquaculture, and Aquatic Sciences i Abstract Eleusine, including 9 to 12 species, is a small genus of annual and perennial grass species within the Eragrosteae tribe and Chloridoideae subfamily. There are very few genomic information about this genus. The primary goal of this dissertation research is to expand understanding of Eleusine diversity and evolution. The dissertation opens with a brief literature review regarding the motivation for this research. In chapter 2 we report a draft assembly of approximately 498 Mb whole-genome sequences of goosegrass obtained by de novo assembly of paired-end and mate-paired reads generated by Illumina sequencing of total genomic DNA. From around 88 GB of the clean data, the genome was assembled into 24,063 scaffolds with N50 = 233,823 bp. The nuclear genome assembly contains 25,467 predicted unique protein-coding genes. Sixteen target herbicide resistant genes and four non-target herbicide resistant gene families were obtained from this draft genome. Chapter 3 presents a complete plastid genome sequence of goosegrass obtained by de novo assembly of paired-end and mate-paired reads obtained in chapter 2.
