Prolonged Expression of a Putative Invertase Inhibitor in Micropylar Endosperm Suppressed Embryo Growth in Arabidopsis

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Proper seed development requires coordinated growth among the three genetically distinct components, the embryo, the endosperm, and the seed coat. In Arabidopsis, embryo growth rate accelerates after endosperm cellularization, which requires a chromatin ...

Dye- and fluorescence-based assay to characterize symplastic and apoplastic trafficking in soybean (Glycime max L.) endosperm

Botanical Studies, 2019
Background Endosperm is a triploid tissue in seed resulting from a sperm nucleus fused with the binucleate central cell after double fertilization. Endosperm may be involved in metabolite production, solute transport, nutrient storage, and germination ...

Characterisation of Cellulose Synthase Like F6 (CslF6) Mutants Shows Altered Carbon Metabolism in β-D-(1,3;1,4)-Glucan Deficient Grain in Brachypodium distachyon

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Brachypodium distachyon is a small, fast growing grass species in the Pooideae subfamily that has become established as a model for other temperate cereals of agricultural significance, such as barley (Hordeum vulgare) and wheat (Triticum aestivum).

Probing the endosperm gene expression landscape in Brassica napus

BMC Genomics, 2009
Background In species with exalbuminous seeds, the endosperm is eventually consumed and its space occupied by the embryo during seed development. However, the main constituent of the early developing seed is the liquid endosperm, and a significant ...

Evolution and function of epigenetic processes in the endosperm

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
The endosperm is an ephemeral tissue surrounding the embryo that is essential for its development. Aside from the embryo nourishing function, the endosperm serves as a battlefield for epigenetic processes that have been hypothesized to reinforce ...

Optimization of isolation and transfection conditions of maize endosperm protoplasts

Plant Methods, 2020
Background Endosperm-trait related genes are associated with grain yield or quality in maize. There are vast numbers of these genes whose functions and regulations are still unknown. The biolistic system, which is often used for transient gene expression,

Expression, regulation and activity of a B2-type cyclin in mitotic and endoreduplicating maize endosperm

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Cyclin-dependent kinases, the master regulators of the eukaryotic cell cycle, are complexes comprised of a catalytic serine/threonine protein kinase and an essential regulatory cyclin.

Reticulon proteins modulate autophagy of the endoplasmic reticulum in maize endosperm

eLife, 2020
Reticulon (Rtn) proteins shape tubular domains of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and in some cases are autophagy receptors for selective ER turnover. We have found that maize Rtn1 and Rtn2 control ER homeostasis and autophagic flux in endosperm aleurone

MANIFESTATION OF WAXY ENDOSPERM GENES IN GRAIN OF RICE VARIETIES AND HYBRIDS

Зерновое хозяйство России, 2018
The article describes genes which control waxy endosperm of rice grain and shows their inheritance in F1 and frequency of variability in F2 on the sample of triploid endosperm and haploid pollen grains.

Light microscopical study of endosperm formation in Brassica napus L.

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The cellularization of the endosperm of Brassica napus was investigated with light microscopy after embedment in Technovit 7100. The microtubular cytoskeleton was visualized by immunofluorescence techniques after embedment in butyl methyl metacrylate ...
