Functional Characterization of the Promoter and Second Intron of CUM1 During Flower Development in Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)

open access: yesHorticultural Plant Journal, 2018
The characterization of flower specific promoter is critical during flower development by cucumber transformation technology. AGAMOUS (AG) is an organ identity gene that is required for carpel and stamen development in Arabidopsis.

Eriope barrinhae (Lamiaceae, Hyptidinae), a new montane species from northern Minas Gerais, Brazil

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
In northern Minas Gerais, in the Monte Azul region, the Pico da Formosa mountain remains poorly explored botanically despite recent discoveries of new taxa. During fieldwork at the summit of this mountain, we discovered a distinctive population of Eriope that differs from all known species by a unique combination of morphological characters.

Characterization of B- and C-class MADS-box genes in medicinal plant Epimedium sagittatum

open access: yesMedicinal Plant Biology, 2023
The basal eudicot Epimedium (Barrenwort) exhibits innovative floral morphology in the form of petal spurs filled with nectar and petaloid sepals. The B-class MADS-box genes APETALAS3 (AP3) and PISTILLA (PI) determine sepal and petal identity while the C ...

A step into the shadows: Evolutionary shifts in fruit structure and dispersal strategies in Asian mycoheterotrophic Ericaceae

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
This study examines how the fruits of non‐photosynthetic forest plants in the Monotropoideae (Ericaceae) have evolved into the diversity observed today. By analyzing four Asian species, we identified a shift from dry, dehiscent fruits that release seeds into the air to fleshy, berry‐like fruits adapted for animal dispersal.

De novo stolon organogenesis in potato leaf callus elicited by Agrobacterium tumefaciens stimulus

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Agrobacterium tumefaciens triggers stolon regeneration from potato leaf callus independent of T‐DNA insertion, suggesting a strategy to reprogram callus identity and expand the potential of tissue regeneration. ABSTRACT Plant cells can undergo cellular reprogramming, enabling pluripotent callus formation from excised leaves.

Pre-Carpels from the Middle Triassic of Spain

open access: yesPlants, 2022
In stark contrast to the multitude of hypotheses on carpel evolution, there is little fossil evidence testing these hypotheses. The recent discovery of angiosperms from the Early Jurassic makes the search for precursors of angiosperm carpels in the Triassic more promising. Our light microscopic and SEM observations on Combina gen.

Role of the tomato MARS1/ROUGH gene encoding a LYSINE‐SPECIFIC HISTONE DEMETHYLASE 1 in adventitious root and fruit skin formation

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The tomato mars1/rough mutant displays enhanced root regeneration and rough fruits due to ectopic cell proliferation. The causal gene encodes a lysine‐specific histone demethylase that normally maintains gene silencing. Its loss alters histone methylation, upregulating several genes, including those B‐type cyclins involved in tissue‐specific cellular ...

Functionally Divergent Splicing Variants of the Rice AGAMOUS Ortholog OsMADS3 Are Evolutionary Conserved in Grasses

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Within the MADS-box gene family, the AGAMOUS-subfamily genes are particularly important for plant reproduction, because they control stamen and carpel identity.
