Down-regulation of CBP80 gene expression as a strategy to engineer a drought-tolerant potato.
Plant Biotechnology Journal, 2013Developing new strategies for crop plants to respond to drought is crucial for their innovative breeding. The down-regulation of nuclear cap-binding proteins in Arabidopsis renders plants drought tolerant.

Chemically regulated gene expression in plants
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2003Chemically inducible systems that activate or inactivate gene expression have many potential applications in the determination of gene function and in plant biotechnology. The precise timing and control of gene expression are important aspects of chemically inducible systems. Several systems have been developed and used to analyze gene function, marker-

Sugar regulation of gene expression in plants
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 1998The molecular details of sugar sensing and sugar-mediated signal transduction pathways are unclear but recent results suggest that hexokinase functions as an important plant sugar sensor in a way that is similar to that found in yeast. The use of mutants in Arabidopsis defective in specific signaling steps is of particular importance because these give

Regulation of plant gene expression by alternative splicing
Biochemical Society Transactions, 2010AS (alternative splicing) is a post-transcriptional process which regulates gene expression through increasing protein complexity and modulating mRNA transcript levels. Regulation of AS depends on interactions between trans-acting protein factors and cis-acting signals in the pre-mRNA (precursor mRNA) transcripts, termed ‘combinatorial’ control ...

Light and diurnal regulation of plant respiratory gene expression.
, 2007Light is both the energy source and the dominant signalling input for photosynthetic organisms. Accordingly, up to 30–50% of the genes expressed in plant leaves are directly or indirectly regulated by light, and virtually all aspects of plant metabolism ...

Phytochrome regulation of nuclear gene expression in plants
Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 2000The photoregulation of gene expression in higher plants was extensively studied during the 1980s, in particular the light-responsive cis -acting elements and trans -acting factors of the Lhcb and rbcS genes. However, little has been discovered about: (1) which plant genes are regulated by light, and (2) which photoreceptors control the expression of ...

Regulation of Plant Gene Expression by Auxins
1990Application of the plant hormone auxin to intact plants, isolated plant parts, and cultured cells can have dramatic effects on subsequent growth and developmental processes (e.g., cell division, cell enlargement, cell differentiation, and organogenesis).

Is plant gene expression regulated globally?
Trends in Genetics, 2001Programmed gene expression is essential for the normal development of all organisms. Until recently it was assumed that regulation occurred on a gene-by-gene basis through the action of various transcriptional activators and repressors. Transcriptional activation is frequently associated with local acetylation of histone proteins near the promoter ...

Auxin‐regulated gene expression in higher plants
Critical Reviews in Plant Sciences, 1986The naturally occurring auxin, indole‐3‐acetic acid, is thought to regulate normal growth and developmental processes in higher plants, including cell extension, cell division, and cell differentiation. Applied auxins, including synthetic and natural auxins, can dramatically alter normal growth and developmental patterns, and applied auxins have been ...

Light Regulation of Gene Expression in Higher Plants
Annual Review of Plant Physiology, 1985In this review areas of currently active research are considered which have demonstrated that a plant's response to light involves changes in the expression of specific genes at the level of RNA. The regulation of gene expression by phytochrome and the UV-sensitive photoreceptor have been studied most extensively at the molecular level, and this review
