The Canonical E2Fs Are Required for Germline Development in Arabidopsis

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
A number of cell fate determinations, including cell division, cell differentiation, and programmed cell death, intensely occur during plant germline development. How these cell fate determinations are regulated remains largely unclear. The transcription

Plant Gametogenesis

open access: yes, 2022
This volume provides protocols and methods on techniques to study plant gametogenesis. Chapters are divided into four sections covering omics, cytological, molecular approaches, plant transformation, genome editing, bioinformatics, and data analysis.

The Role of Anaphase-Promoting Complex/Cyclosome (APC/C) in Plant Reproduction

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Most eukaryotic species propagate through sexual reproduction that requires male and female gametes. In flowering plants, it starts through a single round of DNA replication (S phase) and two consecutive chromosome segregation (meiosis I and II ...

Nuclear Fusion in Yeast and Plant Reproduction

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Nuclear fusion is essential for the sexual reproduction of various organisms, including plants, animals, and fungi. During the life cycle of flowering plants, nuclear fusion occurs three times: once during female gametogenesis and twice during double ...

DNA methylation and epigenetic inheritance during plant gametogenesis

open access: yesChromosoma, 2005
In plants, newly acquired epigenetic states of transcriptional gene activity are readily transmitted to the progeny. This is in contrast to mammals, where only rare cases of transgenerational inheritance of new epigenetic traits have been reported (FASEB J 12:949-957, 1998; Nat Genet 23:314-318, 1999; Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 100:2538-2543, 2003 ...

Epigenetic modifications during angiosperm gametogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2012
Angiosperms do not contain a distinct germline, but rather develop gametes from gametophyte initials that undergo cell division. These gametes contain cells that give rise to an endosperm and the embryo.

A procedure for Dex-induced gene transactivation in Arabidopsis ovules

open access: yesPlant Methods, 2022
Background Elucidating the genetic and molecular control of plant reproduction often requires the deployment of functional approaches based on reverse or forward genetic screens.

Sub-minute Phosphoregulation of Cell Cycle Systems during Plasmodium Gamete Formation

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Summary: The transmission of malaria parasites to mosquitoes relies on the rapid induction of sexual reproduction upon their ingestion into a blood meal. Haploid female and male gametocytes become activated and emerge from their host cells, and the males

MethSemble-6mA: an ensemble-based 6mA prediction server and its application on promoter region of LBD gene family in Poaceae

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
The Lateral Organ Boundaries Domain (LBD) containing genes are a set of plant-specific transcription factors and are crucial for controlling both organ development and defense mechanisms as well as anthocyanin synthesis and nitrogen metabolism.

Natural depletion of histone H1 in sex cells causes DNA demethylation, heterochromatin decondensation and transposon activation

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Transposable elements (TEs), the movement of which can damage the genome, are epigenetically silenced in eukaryotes. Intriguingly, TEs are activated in the sperm companion cell – vegetative cell (VC) – of the flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana. However,
