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,

At the nexus of three kingdoms: the genome of the mycorrhizal fungus Gigaspora margarita provides insights into plant, endobacterial and fungal interactions. [PDF]
As members of the plant microbiota, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF, Glomeromycotina) symbiotically colonize plant roots. AMF also possess their own microbiota, hosting some uncultivable endobacteria.

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

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.

Plant-RRBS, a bisulfite and next-generation sequencing-based methylome profiling method enriching for coverage of cytosine positions [PDF]
Background: Cytosine methylation in plant genomes is important for the regulation of gene transcription and transposon activity. Genome-wide methylomes are studied upon mutation of the DNA methyltransferases, adaptation to environmental stresses or ...

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 ...
