The multifarious role of callose and callose synthase in plant development and environment interactions [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Callose is an important linear form of polysaccharide synthesized in plant cell walls. It is mainly composed of β-1,3-linked glucose residues with rare amount of β-1,6-linked branches.

Callose in leptoid cell walls of the moss Polytrichum and the evolution of callose synthase across bryophytes [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
IntroductionLeptoids, the food-conducting cells of polytrichaceous mosses, share key structural features with sieve elements in tracheophytes, including an elongated shape with oblique end walls containing modified plasmodesmata or pores.

Defense-related callose synthase PMR4 promotes root hair callose deposition and adaptation to phosphate deficiency in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]

Plant J, 2023
Plants acquire phosphorus (P) primarily as inorganic phosphate (Pi) from the soil. Under Pi deficiency, plants induce an array of physiological and morphological responses, termed phosphate starvation response (PSR), thereby increasing Pi acquisition and

Genome-Wide Identification of Callose Synthase Family Genes and Their Expression Analysis in Floral Bud Development and Hormonal Responses in Prunus mume [PDF]

Plants, 2023
Callose is an important polysaccharide composed of beta-1,3-glucans and is widely implicated in plant development and defense responses. Callose synthesis is mainly catalyzed by a family of callose synthases, also known as glucan synthase-like (GSL ...

Biochemical and cytological interactions between callose synthase and microtubules in the tobacco pollen tube. [PDF]

Plant Cell Rep, 2022
The article concerns the association between callose synthase and cytoskeleton by biochemical and ultrastructural analyses in the pollen tube. Results confirmed this association and immunogold labeling showed a colocalization.

The maize callose synthase SLM1 is critical for a normal growth by controlling the vascular development. [PDF]

Mol Breed, 2023
Callose, mainly deposited at the cell plate and in the newly formed cell wall at a very low level, is critical for cell activity and growth in plants. The genetic control and function of callose synthases, responsible for the synthesis of callose, are largely unknown in maize.

Classification and expression analysis of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) callose synthase (CalS) family genes and localization of CsCalS4, a protein involved in pollen development [PDF]

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2021
Callose plays an important role in plant development and response to multiple biotic and abiotic stresses. Callose synthase (CalS; EC 2.4.1.34), the main enzyme in callose synthesis, has been studied in a number of crops but not in cucumber (Cucumis ...

Genomic Identification of Callose Synthase (CalS) Gene Family in Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) and Comparative In Silico Expression Analysis under Aphid (Melanaphis sacchari) Infestation

Agronomy
Callose is widely present in higher plants and plays a significant role in plant growth, development, and response to various stresses. Although numerous studies have highlighted the importance of the callose synthase (CalS) genes, their role in the ...
