Genotype-independent Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated root transformation of chickpea: a rapid and efficient method for reverse genetics studies

open access: yesPlant Methods, 2018
Background Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), an important legume crop is one of the major source of dietary protein. Developing an efficient and reproducible transformation method is imperative to expedite functional genomics studies in this crop.

Calcium regulates the mycophagous ability of Burkholderia gladioli strain NGJ1 in a type III secretion system-dependent manner

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2020
Background A rice associated bacterium Burkholderia gladioli strain NGJ1 demonstrates mycophagy, a phenomenon wherein bacteria feed on fungi. Previously, we have reported that NGJ1 utilizes type III secretion system (T3SS) to deliver a prophage tail-like

New technologies accelerate the exploration of non-coding RNAs in horticultural plants. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), that is, RNAs not translated into proteins, are crucial regulators of a variety of biological processes in plants. While protein-encoding genes have been relatively well-annotated in sequenced genomes, accounting for a small ...

MicroRNA profiling provides insights into post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in chickpea root apex under salinity and water deficiency

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Activity of root apical meristem (RAM) at the root apex is critical for stress-mediated modulation of root-architecture. Chickpea, like other legumes, possesses a basic open root meristem. Deep sequencing was used to perform microRNA expression profiling

Expression of chickpea CIPK25 enhances root growth and tolerance to dehydration and salt stress in transgenic tobacco

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Calcium signaling plays an important role in adaptation and developmental processes in plants and animals. A class of calcium sensors, known as Calcineurin B-like (CBL) proteins sense specific temporal changes in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration and regulate

A Plant Genome Initiative [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Cell, 1998
Over the last several months, we have attended various meetings and small conferences concerning the need for a coordinated and comprehensive plant genome initiative (PGI). From these meetings, and from our extensive discussions with plant and animal scientists with interests in genetics,

A prophage tail-like protein is deployed by Burkholderia bacteria to feed on fungi

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Some bacteria can feed on live fungi through unclear mechanisms. Here, the authors show that a T3SS-secreted protein, which is homologous to phage tail proteins, allows a Burkholderia gladioli strain to kill and feed on various fungal species.

Comparative analyses of nuclear proteome: extending its function

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Organeller proteomics is an emerging technology that is critical in determining the cellular signal transduction pathways. Nucleus, the regulatory hub of the eukaryotic cell is a dynamic system and a repository of various macromolecules that serve as ...

Distribution and conservation of Banana Streak Virus (BSV) within banana Musa balbisiana genome: what impact on host and virus evolution ? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The nuclear genome of several plants isinvaded by numerous viral sequences. These integrations correspond to accidental events mainly resulting from illegitimate recombination of DNA viruses belonging to the family Caulimoviridae with plant DNA whereas ...
