Susceptibility Genes to Plant Viruses [PDF]
Plant viruses use cellular factors and resources to replicate and move. Plants respond to viral infection by several mechanisms, including innate immunity, autophagy, and gene silencing, that viruses must evade or suppress.

Executor (E) genes comprise a new type of plant resistance (R) genes, identified from host–Xanthomonas interactions. The Xanthomonas-secreted transcription activation-like effectors (TALEs) usually function as major virulence factors, which activate the expression of the so-called “susceptibility” (S) genes for disease development.

Horizontal Gene Transfers in Plants [PDF]
In plants, as in all eukaryotes, the vertical transmission of genetic information through reproduction ensures the maintenance of the integrity of species. However, many reports over the past few years have clearly shown that horizontal gene transfers, referred to as HGTs (the interspecific transmission of genetic information across reproductive ...

Genome-Wide Analysis of the IQM Gene Family in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)
Members of the IQM (IQ-Motif Containing) gene family are involved in plant growth and developmental processes, biotic and abiotic stress response. To systematically analyze the IQM gene family and their expression profiles under diverse biotic and ...

Gene targeting in plants [PDF]
Although the generation of transgenic plants is now routine, the integration of foreign genetic information has so far been at random sites in the genome. We now present evidence for directed integration into a predicted location in the host plant genome.

Cis Elements: Added Boost to the Directed Evolution of Plant Genes
To increase the expression of a native/foreign plant/bacterial gene, the complete network of cis-elements must be excavated to increase its biosynthetic yield, especially under industrial stress conditions.

Unraveling the functional genes present in rhizosphere microbiomes of Solanum lycopersicum [PDF]
The microbiomes living in the rhizosphere soil of the tomato plant contribute immensely to the state of health of the tomato plant alongside improving sustainable agriculture. With the aid of shotgun metagenomics sequencing, we characterized the putative

Genetics allows the elucidation of gene function through the analysis of gene malfunction. Modern genetics and genomics require ways for in situ modification of genes, by means of point mutations, deletions, and additions. The availability of sequence information of many organisms dictates rapid development of reverse genetics procedures.

Speciation genes in plants [PDF]
Analyses of speciation genes--genes that contribute to the cessation of gene flow between populations--can offer clues regarding the ecological settings, evolutionary forces and molecular mechanisms that drive the divergence of populations and species.
