MaizeCODE maps active regulatory regions tied to maize domestication traits in a diverse panel of tissues and inbreds. It reveals bi-directional enhancer RNAs and the molecular conflicts between activity and silencing of non-coding regions.
A seed reactivates its genome to germinate. By creating a single-cell atlas of germinating embryos, we show that gene expression is highly dynamic and cell specific. Most cells adopt a single, common transcriptional state early in germination, and then transition to distinct gene regulatory programs...
filaments into bundles in the basal and shank region of the pollen tube, but also in regulating and modulating actin dynamics through its capping and depolymerization (or fragmentation) activities in the apical region of the pollen tube, where there is a relatively high concentration of Ca(2+)....
Secondary cell wall regulation is better understood and involves coordination of multiple regulatory layers consisting of distinct classes of transcription factors (Kumar et al.2016). Using high-spatial-resolution gene expression data and enhanced yeast one-hybrid assays, a gene regulatory network involvin...
[107]. While exploring PDNVs as disease therapeutic agents, many studies have found that these PDNVs could not only have a direct therapeutic effect on the relevant diseases, but also found that these vesicles have a regulatory effect on the intestinal microbiota. This is understandable, because...
the propagules of the host plants have a role in the dissemination of endophytes present inside them (Schardl et al.2004). Similarly, plants allow the dispersion of endophytes through their different parts, such as leaf surface, stem surface, or any other region for their horizontal dissemination...
Phytohormone signaling is fine-tuned by regulatory feedback loops. The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) plays key roles in plant development and abiotic stress tolerance. PYRABACTIN RESISTENCE 1/PYR1-LIKE/REGULATORY COMPONENT OF ABA RECEPTOR (PYR/PYL/RCAR) receptors sense ABA, and in turn, ABA ...
The characterization of the genetic diversity of moth bean accessions using GBS showed that accessions from the northwest part of India were highly diverse and this region may represent the center of diversity and domestication. GWAS analysis for the flowering trait in moth bean using seven multi-lo...
Calcium (Ca2+) is an essential nutrient for plants and a cellular signal, but excessive levels can be toxic and inhibit growth1,2. To thrive in dynamic environments, plants must monitor and maintain cytosolic Ca2+ homeostasis by regulating numerous Ca2+
One of these regulatory processes is the cell wall integrity maintenance mechanism, which monitors and maintains the functional integrity of the plant cell wall during development and interaction with environment. It is an important element in plant pathogen interaction and cell wall plasticity, which ...
