The immunocytochemical localization of transgenically-expressed proteins in plants [PDF]
A range of tissue preparation and immunocytochemical localization techniques were assessed for their possible application in the study of the transgenic expression of the legA gene, encoding Pisum sativum legumin in transformed Nicotiana plumbagimfolia ...

Single‐cell transcriptomics of soybean roots soon after rhizobial inoculation reveals epidermal and cortical cell‐specific programs and gene‐regulatory networks acting in symbiosis establishment. We identify an ethylene‐driven regulatory circuit involving WRKY6.3/6.4 transcription factors targeting select Nod19 genes that promotes infection‐thread ...

Herbivory‐Induced Stomatal Opening Triggers the Dispersal of an Invasive Insect Herbivore
The invasive leafminer Phthorimaea absoluta uniquely manipulates plant defenses by inducing stomatal opening in tomato. This response, mediated by the stomatal regulator IQM1, enhances the release of the repellent volatile benzaldehyde. This volatile triggers the dispersal of adult moths, facilitates colonization of new hosts, and leads to rapid ...

Regulation of gene expression in developing pea seeds [PDF]
Three classes of legumin, encoded by the gene sub-families legA, legJ and legS, and a lectin encoded by a single gene, lecA, accumulate in the developing cotyledons of Pisum sativum L.

HCRSV viral RNA and CP accumulation in inoculated kenaf cotyledons.
In vitro transcripts (0.5 µg for each cotyledon) were inoculated onto kenaf cotyledons and the inoculated cotyledons were collected at different time points. (A) Northern blot analysis of viral RNA. Total RNA (5 µg each) extracted from cotyledons at 1, 2

AM symbiosis induces GhWAK13 to promote fungal colonization. GhNTF3 negatively regulates symbiosis by promoting SA biosynthesis. GhWAK13 sequesters GhNTF3 at the membrane, limiting its nuclear translocation and relieving SA‐mediated suppression. Under Verticillium stress, GhNTF3 enters the nucleus and interacts with GhJAZ6 to activate SA signaling ...

How does the presence of endosperm affect seed size and germination?
Endospermic seeds may germinate more successfully than non-endospermic seeds. The quantity of reserves of endosperm is directly related to seed size; large seeds may present higher percentages of germination than small seeds.

Structural studies of protein deposition in developing legume seeds [PDF]
A comparative study of storage protein deposition has been made in developing seeds of a range of legumes. Varieties of pisum sativum, vicia faba, vigna unguiculata, and Phaseolus vulgaris have been examined.
