CENH3-GFP: a visual marker for gametophytic and somatic ploidy determination in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

, 2016
Background: The in vivo determination of the cell-specific chromosome number provides a valuable tool in several aspects of plant research. However, current techniques to determine the endosystemic ploidy level do not allow non-destructive, cell-specific

Grafting Arabidopsis

BIO-PROTOCOL, 2014
In Arabidopsis thaliana, hypocotyl micrografting has been used to investigate transport of flowering signals, mobile silencing signals and other peptides, proteins and secondary compounds. The effects of transported signals on target tissues require that a good vascular connection is re-established across the graft junction between the cut hypocotyls ...

An Allele of Glutamate Formiminotransferase Triggers 5‐Methyl‐Tetrahydrofolate‐to‐MeFox Conversion and Facilitates Folate Biofortification in Maize

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the distinct roles of the glutamate formiminotransferase (GFT) enzyme in plants. The GFT triggers the conversion of 5‐methyl‐tetrahydrofolate to MeFox in plants, a process distinct from its role as a formiminotransferase in mammals.

Stimulation of Arabidopsis thaliana Seed Germination at Suboptimal Temperatures through Biopriming with Biofilm-Forming PGPR Pseudomonas putida KT2440

Plants
This study investigated the germination response to temperature of seeds of nine Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes. They are characterized by a similar temperature dependency of seed germination, and 10 °C and 29 °C were found to be suboptimal low and high ...

In silico Mechanistic Study of Abscisic Acid (ABA) Mediated Drought Tolerance in Crops

Journal of Bioresource Management, 2016
Drought is one of the major environmental stresses that produces adverse effects on plants. Vast areas of agricultural land is susceptible to drought. Drought induced yield loss of crops has negative effects on the economy of a country.

Upon heat stress processing of ribosomal RNA precursors into mature rRNAs is compromised after cleavage at primary P site in Arabidopsis thaliana

RNA Biology, 2022
Transcription and processing of 45S rRNAs in the nucleolus are keystones of ribosome biogenesis. While these processes are severely impacted by stress conditions in multiple species, primarily upon heat exposure, we lack information about the molecular ...
