An integrated sensing chip for attomolar label-free detection of amplified nucleic acids
Summary:
Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a nucleic acid amplification technique and has been widely used for detection of pathogens in many organisms. Current LAMP-based sensors usually require the LAMP products to be labeled in order for them to be detected.
Description:
This new LAMP chip offers a new portable platform to detect...

Secure message authentication in wireless relay networks
Summary:
Relays are extensively utilized in various wireless networks, such as cellular and WiFi, to extend coverage and enhance network capacity. However, the presence of relays also introduces data integrity challenges. One critical concern is the threat of data integrity attacks, where a relay maliciously modifies packets during transit. This type...

C1-I haploid inducer
Summary:
The C1-I haploid inducer is a maternal haploid inducer line, fixed for the allele C1-I. C1 is a transcription factor in the anthocyanin pathway. The allele C1-I suppresses the formation of anthocyanin even in the presence of R1-nj, a visual selectable marker commonly used in haploid selection. Thus C1-I haploid inducer allows to induce and...

Gene controlling spontaneous haploid genome doubling in maize
Summary:
ISU researchers identified a maize chromosomal region and markers associated with the ability of haploid plants to spontaneously double their genome, and thus become DH/inbred lines. Genome doubling without particular treatment, greenhouse cultivation and transplanting can substantially reduce the costs of DH line production. The chromosomal...

Spontaneous Haploid Genome Doubling Maize Donor Line
Summary: ISU researchers have bred donor maize lines with increased propensity to spontaneously double their haploid genomes, and thus become doubled haploid (DH)/inbred lines. This finding open a path to reduce the costs associated with DH maize production. The donor lines of this invention and associated DNA markers of ISURF invention disclosure...
