ARF6 integrates auxin and gibberellin signaling to promote stone cell lignification in pear via the HB49‐MYB169 module

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Stone cells originate from secondary cell wall thickening and contain abundant lignin. Their excessive accumulation compromises pear fruit quality, yet the endogenous hormonal mechanisms governing stone cell formation remain unclear. Here, co‐expression network analysis using transcriptome data – the flesh of 206 sand pear accessions sampled at

HvTT8 Regulates Proanthocyanidin Accumulation in the Barley Testa Layer by Transcriptionally Activating the Flavonoid Biosynthesis Pathway

Plant Direct
Barley accumulates proanthocyanidins (PA), a type of flavonoid compound, in the testa layer. The accumulated PA have a detrimental effect on the quality of beer and pearled barley. Therefore, controlling PA accumulation in the testa layer is an important

BMP and FGF signaling interact to pattern mesoderm by controlling basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor activity

eLife, 2018
The mesodermal germ layer is patterned into mediolateral subtypes by signaling factors including BMP and FGF. How these pathways are integrated to induce specific mediolateral cell fates is not well understood.

Establishing neuronal identity in vertebrate neurogenic placodes [PDF]

, 2000
The trigeminal and epibranchial placodes of vertebrate embryos form different types of sensory neurons. The trigeminal placodes form cutaneous sensory neurons that innervate the face and jaws, while the epibranchial placodes (geniculate, petrosal and ...

Vernalization regulatory network identifies potential novel functions for genes in the HvVRN2 locus

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Flowering is controlled by environmental and genetic factors. Vernalization requirement in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is determined by the allele in HvVRN1 and the presence of locus HvVRN2, which consists of two zinc‐finger and CONSTANS‐like domains (ZCCT) genes: HvVRN2a and HvVRN2b.

PWO proteins are associated with PRC2 since their emergence in vascular plants

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary The Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), a conserved histone methyltransferase complex, plays a central role in transcriptional silencing across eukaryotes. Here, we investigate the evolution of PWWP‐DOMAIN INTERACTORS OF POLYCOMBS (PWOs), which interact with PRC2, and examine the conservation of the PWOs‐PRC2 interaction across plant ...

The Basic/Helix-Loop-Helix Protein Family in Gossypium: Reference Genes and Their Evolution during Tetraploidization.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Basic/helix-loop-helix (bHLH) proteins comprise one of the largest transcription factor families and play important roles in diverse cellular and molecular processes.

Hes6 acts in a positive feedback loop with the neurogenins to promote neuronal differentiation [PDF]

, 2000
During the development of the vertebrate nervous system, neurogenesis is promoted by proneural bHLH proteins such as the neurogenins, which act as potent transcriptional activators of neuronal differentiation genes.

An N‐acetyltransferase‐MAPK fusion protein modulates developmental reprogramming in Physcomitrium patens

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary We discovered a previously uncharacterized moss‐specific protein, Rosetta NATD‐MAPK 1 (RAK1) in Physcomitrium patens, which uniquely integrates MAP kinase (MAPK)‐dependent signaling with N‐acetyltransferase activity. Through phenotypical and biochemical analyses, we characterized RAK1 function in the regulation of the 2D‐to‐3D growth transition.

Harnessing Bulk‐Segregant Mapping to Identify Trait‐Associated Genes in the Allopolyploid Model Plant Nicotiana benthamiana

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Forward genetics has been instrumental in identifying genes underlying desirable traits, yet its application to polyploid plants, many of which are key agricultural crops, remains challenging due to their genomic complexity. Therefore, we developed BenthMap, a bulk segregant analysis platform for high‐throughput trait mapping and gene ...
