Developmental Analysis of Mimulus Seed Transcriptomes Reveals Functional Gene Expression Clusters and Four Imprinted, Endosperm-Expressed Genes

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
The double fertilization of the female gametophyte initiates embryogenesis and endosperm development in seeds via the activation of genes involved in cell differentiation, organ patterning, and growth.

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 ...

Regulation of seed germination in the close Arabidopsis relative Lepidium sativum : a global tissue-specific transcript analysis [PDF]

, 2011
The completion of germination in Lepidium sativum and other endospermic seeds (e.g. Arabidopsis [Arabidopsis thaliana]) is regulated by two opposing forces, the growth potential of the radicle (RAD) and the resistance to this growth from the micropylar ...

Dormancy-specific imprinting underlies maternal inheritance of seed dormancy in Arabidopsis thaliana

eLife, 2016
Mature seed dormancy is a vital plant trait that prevents germination out of season. In Arabidopsis, the trait can be maternally regulated but the underlying mechanisms sustaining this regulation, its general occurrence and its biological significance ...

Identification of imprinted genes subject to parent-of-origin specific expression in Arabidopsis thaliana seeds [PDF]

, 2011
BACKGROUND: Epigenetic regulation of gene dosage by genomic imprinting of some autosomal genes facilitates normal reproductive development in both mammals and flowering plants.

Starch branching enzymes and their genes in Sorghum [PDF]

, 2004
Starch is an important raw material both for food and non-food purposes. It is synthesized and stored in source and sink tissues in plants. The starch deposited in amyloplasts of storage tissues possesses several physico-chemical properties, which makes ...

Metabolic Disturbance Induced by the Embryo Contributes to the Formation of Chalky Endosperm of a Notched-Belly Rice Mutant

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Grain chalkiness is a key quality trait of the rice grain, whereas its underlying mechanism is still not thoroughly understood because of the complex genetic and environmental interactions.

In vitro starch binding experiments: Study of the proteins related to grain hardness of wheat [PDF]

, 2007
Two friabilin components, puroindoline a and GSP-1 were expressed in Escherichia coli. Starch binding properties of the recombinant polypeptides and of friabilin extracted from wheat flour were compared in vitro. The produced proteins as well as native
