The CesA proteins are key players in cellulose synthesis. Eucalyptus is well-known for cellulose synthesis, although the mechanism of cellulose synthesis is largely unknown. In this study, 11 CcCesA genes were identified by comprehensive bioinformatics analysis in Corymbia citriodora, a eucalypt species. CcCesA genes were generally conserved in each subfamily. Among them, four genes lacked a transmembrane domain in the N-terminal. We showed that genes of CesA2, 4, 5, and 8 may regulate the synthesis of secondary cell walls (SCWs) through phylogenetic trees analysis. Two pairs of segmental duplication and one pair of tandem duplication were detected in CcCesAs. Analysis of Ka/Ks ratios revealed that the duplicated genes were under negative or purifying selection. Numerous cis-acting elements related to plant hormones and light reactions were identified in the promoters of CcCesAs. Expression analysis confirmed that genes of CesA2, 4, and 8 regulate the synthesis of SCWs, and CesA8, in particular, had the highest expression compared with other genes. The results will help us understand the complexity of the CcCesAs in different diameters at breast height and provide valuable information for future functional characterization of specific genes in C. citriodora.
In the field of higher education teaching, the development of virtual reality teaching is one of the important manifestations of education and teaching informatization, and its specific application has been increasingly extensive implemented. Based on the characteristics of virtual reality technology and the current situation of precision agriculture technology curriculum, the teaching method of precision agriculture technology after the integration of virtual reality was explored in this paper. Finally, a teaching model for precision agriculture technology based on virtual reality was established, providing an effective way to improve the teaching effect of precision agriculture technology.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
