Cotton fiber annexins: a potential role in the regulation of callose synthase [PDF]
The Plant Journal, 1993 SummaryCotton fibers contain a characteristic set of proteins which interact with plasma membranes in a Ca2+‐dependent manner. The association of these proteins with the membrane is correlated with a reduced level of UDP‐glucose: (1→3)‐β‐glucan (callose) synthase activity.

Xanthan pyruvilation is essential for the virulence of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris [PDF]
, 2016 Xanthan, the main exopolysaccharide (EPS) synthesized by Xanthomonas spp., contributes to bacterial stress tolerance and enhances attachment to plant surfaces by helping in biofilm formation.

Biochar-amended potting medium reduces the susceptibility of rice to root-knot nematode infections [PDF]
, 2015 Background: Biochar is a solid coproduct of biomass pyrolysis, and soil amended with biochar has been shown to enhance the productivity of various crops and induce systemic plant resistance to fungal pathogens.

LAP3, a novel plant protein required for pollen development, is essential for proper exine formation [PDF]
, 2009 We isolated lap3-1 and lap3-2 mutants in ascreen for pollen that displays abnormal stigma binding.Unlike wild-type pollen, lap3-1 and lap3-2 pollen exine isthinner, weaker, and is missing some connections betweentheir roof-like tectum structures.

Callose Synthase GSL7 Is Necessary for Normal Phloem Transport and Inflorescence Growth in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2010 Abstract One isoform of callose synthase, Glucan Synthase-Like7 (GSL7), is tightly coexpressed with two isoforms of sucrose synthase (SUS5 and SUS6) known to be confined to phloem sieve elements in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). Investigation of the phenotype of gsl7 mutants of Arabidopsis revealed that the sieve plate pores of ...

Cellulose biosynthesis in higher plants
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 Knowledge of the control and regulation of cellulose synthesis is fundamental to an understanding of plant development since cellulose is the primary structural component of plant cell walls.

A Cell Plate-Specific Callose Synthase and Its Interaction with Phragmoplastin
The Plant Cell, 2001 Abstract Callose is synthesized on the forming cell plate and several other locations in the plant. We cloned an Arabidopsis cDNA encoding a callose synthase (CalS1) catalytic subunit. The CalS1 gene comprises 42 exons with 41 introns and is transcribed into a 6.0-kb mRNA. The deduced peptide, with an approximate molecular mass of 226 kD,

Developmental Regulation of the (1,3)-β-Glucan (Callose) Synthase from Tomato [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1991 Activity levels of UDP-glucose: (1,3)-beta-glucan (callose) synthase in microsomal membranes of pericarp tissue from tomato fruit (Lycoperisicon esculentum Mill, cv Rutgers) were determined during development and ripening. Addition of the phospholipase inhibitors O-phosphorylcholine and glycerol-1-phosphate to homogenization buffers was necessary to ...
