The Maize ZmbHLH118 Transcription Factor Regulates Vacuolar Nitrate Loading by the NO3− Transporter ZmCLCa

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In maize, the bHLH transcription factor ZmbHLH118 directly binds to the promoter of ZmCLCa and inhibits its expression. Tonoplast‐localized ZmCLCa mediates NO3− influx into the vacuole to regulate intracellular NO3− homeostasis, modulating nitrate uptake and metabolism, plant growth, and grain yield.

TRADITION, QUALITY AND BIOTECHNOLOGY IN HUNGARIAN SPICE PEPPER (Capsicum annuum L.) BREEDING [PDF]

, 2010
Spice pepper production has a history of almost 300 years in the southern part of Hungary. In this study the results of two biotechnological improvements are summarized. Anther and isolated microspore culture techniques were improved to release haploid

ZSL Orchestrates Synaptonemal Complex Assembly as a Central Region Scaffold to Ensure Synapsis Fidelity and Crossover Control in Polyploid Meiosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A central molecular adaptor, ZSL, is identified that links transverse filaments ZYP1 to central element SCEP1/2 to drive synaptonemal complex assembly in Brassica napus. Loss of ZSL abolishes synaptonemal complex formation, disrupts meiotic chromosome segregation, and markedly increases crossovers, providing mechanistic insight into meiotic fidelity ...

Multifunctional Bracts in the Dove Tree Davidia involucrata (Nyssaceae:Cornales) [PDF]

, 2008
Although there has been much experimental work on floral traits that are under selection from mutualists and antagonists, selection by abiotic environmental factors on flowers has been largely ignored.

Development of High Yielding Glutinous Cytoplasmic Male Sterile Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Lines through CRISPR/Cas9 Based Mutagenesis of Wx and TGW6 and Proteomic Analysis of Anther

Agronomy, 2018
Development of high yielding and more palatable glutinous rice is an important goal in breeding and long-standing cultural interaction in Asia. In this study, the TGW6 and Wx, major genes conferring 1000 grain weight (GW) and amylose content (AC), were ...

Maize Anther Development Involves Translated Open Reading Frames From 3′ Untranslated Regions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study examined the translation activity across ten stages of maize anther development, integrating transcriptome and small‐peptide data. It linked mutations in translated 3' ORFs to anther sterility, exemplified by Zm00001eb417050_3' ORF (known as APV1). In addition, the data indicated that maize anthers could assimilate CO2 through the stomata in

Phylogenetic systematics of Juncaceae

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Juncaceae has needed taxonomic revision for some time. Specifically, the genus Juncus s.l. is known to be paraphyletic because five small southern‐hemisphere genera have been shown repeatedly to be nested within it. In 2022, a new classification was proposed, based on phylogenies built from one nuclear and three plastid regions ...

The Capability of Some Butterflies as Carriers of Common Milkweed Pollen [PDF]

, 2017
The common milkweed, Asclepias syriaca L., is remarkably adapted for cross pollination by insects. Its pollen sacs (pollinia) are often found attached to the appendages of bees, wasps, butterflies, and other insects that visit milkweed for its nectar ...

Development of the Middle Layer in the Anther of Arabidopsis

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The middle layer is an essential cell layer of the anther wall located between the endothecium and tapetum in Arabidopsis. Based on sectioning, the middle layer was found to be degraded at stage 7, which led to the separation of the tapetum from the ...

Origin of subgenomes in the circumboreal, allopolyploid, carnivorous plant Drosera anglica

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The parentage of the widespread allopolyploid Drosera anglica, a member of the carnivorous sundew genus, remains uncertain despite over 100 years of morphological, cytological, and, more recently, molecular study. Methods Using transcriptomic and genomic data from 12 species of Drosera sect. Drosera, including four D.
