Meiotic Chromosome Stability and Suppression of Crossover Between Non-homologous Chromosomes in xBrassicoraphanus, an Intergeneric Allotetraploid Derived From a Cross Between Brassica rapa and Raphanus sativus

Hybridization and polyploidization are major driving forces in plant evolution.Allopolyploids can be occasionally formed from a cross between distantly related species but often suffer from chromosome instability and infertility.xBrassicoraphanus is an intergeneric allotetraploid (AARR; 2n = 38) derived from a cross between Brassica rapa (AA; 2n =

Evaluation of the Membrane Damage Mechanism of Chlorogenic Acid against Yersinia enterocolitica and Enterobacter sakazakii and Its Application in the Preservation of Raw Pork and Skim Milk

Plant-derived antimicrobial agents have adequate antimicrobial effects on food-borne pathogens, which can be used as food preservatives.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antibacterial mechanism of chlorogenic acid (CA) against Yersinia enterocolitica and Enterobacter sakazakii.The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of CA was determi
