High Spatio-Temporal-Resolution Detection of Chlorophyll Fluorescence Dynamics from a Single Chloroplast with Confocal Imaging Fluorometer [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Chlorophyll fluorescence (CF) is a key indicator to study plant physiology or photosynthesis efficiency. Conventionally, CF is characterized by fluorometers, which only allows ensemble measurement through wide-field detection. For imaging fluorometers, the typical spatial and temporal resolutions are on the order of millimeter and second, far from ...

Third-codon transversion rate-based _Nymphaea_ basal angiosperm phylogeny -- concordance with developmental evidence [PDF]
, 2007 Flowering plants (angiosperms) appeared on Earth rather suddenly approximately 130 million years ago and underwent a massive expansion in the subsequent 10-12 million years.

Relation between Gene Content and Taxonomy in Chloroplasts [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 The aim of this study is to investigate the relation that can be found between the phylogeny of a large set of complete chloroplast genomes, and the evolution of gene content inside these sequences. Core and pan genomes have been computed on \textit{de novo} annotation of these 845 genomes, the former being used for producing well-supported ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 The yields and productivity of crops are greatly diminished by various abiotic stresses, including drought, cold, heat, and high salinity. Chloroplasts and mitochondria are cellular organelles that can sense diverse environmental stimuli and alter gene ...

Identification of Plastoglobules as a Site of Carotenoid Cleavage
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 Carotenoids play an essential role in light harvesting and protection from excess light. During chloroplast senescence carotenoids are released from their binding proteins and are eventually metabolized.

Finding the Core-Genes of Chloroplasts [PDF]
Journal of Bioscience, Biochemistry, and Bioinformatics,
4(5):357--364, 2014, 2014 Due to the recent evolution of sequencing techniques, the number of available genomes is rising steadily, leading to the possibility to make large scale genomic comparison between sets of close species. An interesting question to answer is: what is the common functionality genes of a collection of species, or conversely, to determine what is specific ...

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 The chloroplast is one of the most important organelles found exclusively in plant and algal cells. Previous reports indicated that the chloroplast is involved in plant embryogenesis, but the role of the organelle during embryo morphogenesis and ...

Hybrid Genetic Algorithm and Lasso Test Approach for Inferring Well Supported Phylogenetic Trees based on Subsets of Chloroplastic Core Genes [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 The amount of completely sequenced chloroplast genomes increases rapidly every day, leading to the possibility to build large scale phylogenetic trees of plant species. Considering a subset of close plant species defined according to their chloroplasts, the phylogenetic tree that can be inferred by their core genes is not necessarily well supported ...
