Transcriptional integration of paternal and maternal factors in the Arabidopsis zygote [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In many plants, the asymmetric division of the zygote sets up the apical-basal axis of the embryo. Unlike animals, plant zygotes are transcriptionally active, implying that plants have evolved specific mechanisms to control transcriptional activation of ...

Sweet Potato Gene Clusters Control Anthocyanin Biosynthesis and Leaf Morphology

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) exhibits diversity in pigmentation and leaf morphology, yet the genetic architecture and regulatory organisation underlying these traits remain poorly resolved, particularly with respect to organ‐specific control.

Homeobox genes in normal and abnormal vasculogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Homeobox containing genes are a family of transcription factors regulating normal development and controlling primary cellular processes (cell identity, cell division and differentiation) recently enriched by the discovery of their interaction with ...

Functional Characterisation of HAIRPLUS (NtHAP) Genes Involved in Trichome Development and Specialised Metabolism of Tobacco

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant glandular trichomes are specialised epidermal structures capable of synthesising, storing and secreting numerous varieties of secondary metabolites in different classes and are central to plant defence and the biosynthesis of high‐value metabolites.

Functional Profiling of Transcription Factor Genes in Neurospora crassa. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Regulation of gene expression by DNA-binding transcription factors is essential for proper control of growth and development in all organisms. In this study, we annotate and characterize growth and developmental phenotypes for transcription factor genes ...

Spatial Regulation of Silicon Accumulation in Peduncle Confers Sheathed Spike in Barley

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Peduncle, the uppermost internode in cereals, connects the stem to the inflorescence and is critical for the transport of water, nutrients and photosynthetic assimilates. While peduncle length associates with plant height and its elongation is primarily regulated by phytohormones, we report a previously unrecognized mechanism involving the ...

Thyroid-specific transcription factors control Hex promoter activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The homeobox-containing gene Hex is expressed in several cell types, including thyroid follicular cells, in which it regulates the transcription of tissue-specific genes. In this study the regulation of Hex promoter activity was investigated.

A Novel AP2/ERF Transcription Factor Controls Trichome Initiation and Fruit Development in Cucumber

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trichomes, the hair‐like outgrowths of the plant epidermis, are critical for defence, reproduction and development. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms governing their initiation remain elusive. Here, we identified CsGL2, an AP2/ERF transcription factor, as a key integrator controlling trichome initiation and fruit development in ...

Pbx loss in cranial neural crest, unlike in epithelium, results in cleft palate only and a broader midface. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Orofacial clefting represents the most common craniofacial birth defect. Cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) is genetically distinct from cleft palate only (CPO).

OsMYB306‐OsRAV11 Regulates Resistance of Rice to Striped Stem Borer by Modulating Serotonin Biosynthesis

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Striped stem borer (SSB; Chilo suppressalis Walker) is one of the most destructive pests in rice production. Previous studies have demonstrated that SSB infestation induces transcription of OsT5H (tryptamine‐5‐hydroxylase) and biosynthesis of serotonin, a newly recognised phytohormone, and that disruption of serotonin biosynthesis ...
