Evaluation of the Molecular Structural Parameters of Normal Rice Starch and Their Relationships with Its Thermal and Digestion Properties

Molecules, 2017
The molecular structural parameters of six normal rice starches with different amylose contents were investigated through their iodine absorption spectra and gel permeation chromatography of fully branched and debranched starches.

Influence of Environmental Temperature during the Ripening Period on the Amylose Content and Whiteness of Low-amylose Rice.

Japanese Journal of Crop Science, 2002
We examined the effects of environmental temperature (ET) during the ripening period on the amylose content and the whiteness values (an indicator of dull endosperm), in seven low-amylose rice cultivars. ET showed a significant negative correlation with the amylose content in all cultivars examined.

KU80 suppresses endonuclease G activity to preserve genomic integrity

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Under normal conditions, EndoG remains restricted to mitochondria and the genome remains intact. When KU80 is absent, EndoG translocates into the nucleus, where it promotes DNA fragmentation and genomic instability. Thus, this work highlights the importance of KU80 in tightly controlling EndoG localization to preserve genome stability.

Wee1 kinase differentially regulates maize CDKA2;1a and CDKB1;1

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In eukaryotes, Wee1 kinase inhibits the kinase activity of CDK/Cyc complexes through phosphorylation of a conserved residue in the CDK moiety. Wee1 is also present in plants, but has been scarcely studied. We have studied maize Wee1 regulation of CDKA/CycD2;2a or CDKB/CycD2;2a complexes.

A leucine‐rich‐repeat receptor‐like kinase SERL1 phosphorylates and stabilizes OsALDH2B1 to promote alkaline tolerance and grain size in rice

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The rice aldehyde dehydrogenase OsALDH2B1 enhances grain size and tolerance to alkaline soil by repressing GRAIN SIZE 3 and activating catalases. SERL1‐mediated phosphorylation stabilizes OsALDH2B1 under stress, establishing a signaling axis that overcomes growth‐defense trade‐offs and provides a direct target for breeding high‐yield, alkaline ...

Pentatricopeptide repeat proteins in crops: Advances in functional mechanisms and breeding applications

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Pentatricopeptide repeat proteins coordinate nucleus‐organelle communication by modulating RNA metabolism within chloroplasts and mitochondria. This review highlights how they control critical processes like photosynthesis, seed development, fertility restoration, and stress survival in crops, and explores their potential as programmable tools for RNA ...

Dynamics of starch formation and gene expression during grain filling and its possible influence on grain quality

Scientific Reports
In rice, grain filling is a crucial stage where asynchronous filling of the pollinated spikelet’s of the panicle occurs. It can influence both grain quality and yield.

HSP101‐encoding NEO‐TETRAPLOID RICE FERTILITY GENE 1 regulates tapetum development through interaction with SAPK2 in polyploid rice

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In neo‐tetraploid rice, the NTRF1–SAPK2 heat shock protein–kinase module coordinates abscisic acid signaling with reactive oxygen species homeostasis to ensure timely tapetal programmed cell death and subsequent pollen maturation, providing a resource for the genetic improvement of polyploid rice.

Transcriptional adapter ADA2 regulates yield and end‐use quality through liquid–liquid phase separation in wheat

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The transcriptional adapter ADA2 interacts with the histone acetyltransferase GCN5 to regulate starch and storage protein content in wheat grains through histone acetylation. ADA2 undergoes phase separation and is modulated by GCN5, affecting histone acetyltransferase activity and gene transcription.
