Somatic embryogenesis in apomictBoechera holboellii
In this study we establish an efficient method for the regeneration for Boechera holboellii via somatic embryogenesis. Immature cotyledons from siliques of 4-6 month-old plants were cultured on MS medium supplemented with plant growth regulators (BA - 6-benzylaminopurine; NAA - alpha-naphthaleneacetic acid; TDZ - 1-phelyl-3-(1,2,3-thiadiazol-5-yl) urea:

Charecterization of thePHERES1Orthologs in the ApomictBoechera [PDF]
ABSTRACTHere we report the structure and expression patterns of orthologs for PHERES1 (PHE1) gene in the apomict Boechera holboellii. The PHE1 cDNAs were obtained by RT-PCR from Boechera anthers and carpels before and after fertilization. PHE1 encodes a type 1 MADS box protein and promotes seed growth. Also, PHE1 shows monoallelic expression and is the

Differential local adaptation restricts gene flow between populations inhabiting distinct environments, resulting in isolation by adaptation. In addition to the statistical inferences of genotype–environment associations, an integrative approach is ...

Quantitative variation for apomictic reproduction in the genus Boechera (Brassicaceae) [PDF]
• Premise of the study: The evolution of asexual seed production (apomixis) from sexual relatives is a great enigma of plant biology. The genus Boechera is ideal for studying apomixis because of its close relation to Arabidopsis and the occurrence of sexual and apomictic species at low ploidy levels (diploid and triploid).

Apomixis and Gene Expression in Boechera [PDF]
The ability to induce apomixis, the production of seeds from maternal tissues without fertilization or meiosis, in crop plants has been referred to as a holy grail of plant biology. Apomixis leads to genetically identical progeny, which would, for instance, allow crops to retain complex ...

Major transcriptome reprogramming underlies floral mimicry induced by the rust fungus Puccinia monoica in Boechera stricta. [PDF]
Pucciniamonoica is a spectacular plant parasitic rust fungus that triggers the formation of flower-like structures (pseudoflowers) in its Brassicaceae host plant Boecherastricta.

Rhizosphere Microbes Influence Host Circadian Clock Function
The circadian clock is an important determinant of fitness that is entrained by local conditions. Aside from abiotic factors, individual pathogenic soil bacteria affect circadian clock function in plant hosts. Yet, in nature, plants interact with diverse

Using Brassica Cover Crops as Living Mulch in a Vineyard, Changes over One Growing Season
Farmers hoping to manage cropping systems sustainably are turning to cover crops to help mitigate plant pathogens. Plants with biofumigant properties are used to control soil-borne pathogens in agricultural settings, especially in till systems, where the

Background Apomixis, a natural form of asexual seed production in plants, is considered to have great biotechnological potential for agriculture. It has been hypothesised that de-regulation of the sexual developmental pathway could trigger apomictic ...

Different transcript patterns in response to specialist and generalist herbivores in the wild Arabidopsis relative Boechera divaricarpa. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Plants defend themselves against herbivorous insects, utilizing both constitutive and inducible defenses. Induced defenses are controlled by several phytohormone-mediated signaling pathways.
