Spatio-temporal expression patterns of Arabidopsis thaliana and Medicago truncatula defensin-like genes [PDF]
Plant genomes contain several hundred defensin-like (DEFL) genes that encode short cysteine-rich proteins resembling defensins, which are well known antimicrobial polypeptides.

Phytotoxic Effects of Bisphenol A on Growth and Physiology of Capsicum annuum L.
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a widely used chemical to produce raw materials in plastic production, which has led to its ubiquity in the natural environment and toxicity to both plants and humans.

Horizontal gene transfer in plants [PDF]
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) has played a major role in bacterial evolution and is fairly common in certain unicellular eukaryotes. However, the prevalence and importance of HGT in the evolution of multicellular eukaryotes remain unclear. Recent studies indicate that plant mitochondrial genomes are unusually active in HGT relative to all other ...

Plant gene silencing regularized [PDF]
Two surprising and potentially useful phenomena of transgenic plants originated from two distinct lines of research but may converge in underlying mechanism or mechanisms (1–3). Plant transformation technology, the staple of the crop biotechnology industry, overcomes the species barrier and allows introduction into plants of genes from other plant ...

ABSTRACT Background PIK3CA‐related overgrowth spectrum (PROS) includes several rare overgrowth disorders resulting from somatic gain‐of‐function mutations in PIK3CA. Despite treatment advances, including the recent approval of alpelisib for PROS in the United States, literature detailing the patient experience with PROS is limited.

AtMOB1 Genes Regulate Jasmonate Accumulation and Plant Development(1)([OPEN])
The MOB1 proteins are highly conserved in yeasts, animals, and plants. Previously, we showed that the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) MOB1A gene (AtMOB1A/NCP1) plays critical roles in auxin-mediated plant development.
