Global warming threatens food security and plant survival. This paper demonstrates that Class II TCP transcription factors are critical for specifying ovule identity and inhibiting the conversion of ovules into carpelloids under high temperature.

A major class of eukaryotic transposons that transpose through rolling-circle replication. Homeotic gene A gene that controls pattern formation during development. Mantled A type of abnormality in oil palm male floral organs in which they transform into supernumerary carpels. Columella cells A layer ...
years, our knowledge of how plants perceive temperature and how they respond to heat stress has improved significantly. However, a comprehensive mechanistic understanding of the process still largely elusive. This review explores how an increase in the global surface temperature detrimentally affects plan...

Class-specific signatures in the RNA-binding and catalytic domains, which may contribute to the functional diversity of plant AGOs, as well as context-dependent changes in sequence and domain architecture that may have consequences for gene function were found. Conclusions: Together, the results ...
Plant phenotypic variation constitutes the raw material for much of plant biology, including research on gene function in model species, breeding of desirable crop varieties, functional investigations from the cellular to ecosystem scale, and inference about the evolution and ecology of both plants and...
Sequence Comparison of EMF2/VRN2 Class Homologs Predicted full-length and partial EMF2/VRN2 protein homologs were aligned using MUSCLE (see Methods). N-terminal (N-ter) Domain An N-terminal domain for Arabidopsis EMF2 was defined by Yoshida et al. (2001) as a fragment starting from amino...

Although many studies have shown that microbes can ectopically stimulate or suppress plant immune responses, the fundamental question of whether the entire preexisting microbiota is indeed required for proper development of plant immune response remains
