AbstractRecent developments in plant genomics have enabled a comprehensive analysis of the medicinal potential of plants based on their gene repertoire. Genes of biosynthesis pathways can be discovered through comparative genomics and through integration of transcriptomic data. Data-driven discovery of specialized metabolites could accelerate research.

The rapidity with which genomic sequences of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana and soon of rice are becoming available has strongly boosted plant molecular biology research. Here, two main genomic fields will be discussed: the progress in different structural genome projects, such as mapping, sequencing, genome organization and comparative genomics,

Genomic Imprinting in Plants [PDF]
Genomic imprinting attracted particular attention in the 1980’s following the discovery that the parental origin of genetic information is essential for normal development of eutherians1,2, for review see3. The term imprinting was first introduced in the 1960s to describe the elimination of the paternal chromosomes during spermatogenesis in the Sciarid

Functional Genomics in Plants [PDF]
The sequencing of the first genome of a higher plant, Arabidopsis, is progressing at a rapid pace. As we are writing these words, almost one-third of the estimated 100 Mb is available in public databases, and with appropriate funding the complete genome sequence is predicted to be finished by ...

14-3-3s are highly conserved, multigene family proteins that have been implicated in modulating various biological processes. The presence of inherent polyploidy and genome complexity has limited the identification and characterization of 14-3-3 proteins

Plant reproductive genomics at the Plant and Animal Genome Conference [PDF]
Exciting advances in our understanding of plantreproductive biology are being spurred both bynew research on established model systems andby the emergence of new models. Moreover, com-parative analyses are placing knowledge derivedfrom each of these systems into an evolution-ary framework and thus providing insights intothe processes responsible for ...

Fruit is an assimilator of metabolites, nutrients, and signaling molecules, thus considered as potential target for pathogen attack. In response to patho-stress, such as fungal invasion, plants reorganize their proteome and reconfigure their physiology ...

B-cell lymphoma2 (Bcl-2)-associated athanogene (BAG) family proteins are evolutionary conserved across all eukaryotes. These proteins interact with HSP70/HSC70 and function as co-chaperones during stress response and developmental pathways.

Transcription factors (TFs) are major players in stress signalling and constitute an integral part of signalling networks. Among the major TFs, WRKY proteins play pivotal roles in regulation of transcriptional reprogramming associated with stress ...

JAZ repressors: Possible Involvement in Nutrients Deficiency Response in Rice and Chickpea
Jasmonates (JA) are well-known phytohormones which play important roles in plant development and defence against pathogens. Jasmonate ZIM domain (JAZ) proteins are plant-specific proteins and act as transcriptional repressors of JA-responsive genes.
