Additive and Partially Dominant Effects from Genomic Variation Contribute to Rice Heterosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Additive and partially dominant effects, namely at mid‐parent levels or values between mid‐parent and parental levels, respectively, are the predominant inheritance patterns of heterosis‐associated molecules. These two genetic effects contribute to heterosis of agronomic traits in both rice and maize, as well as biomass heterosis in Arabidopsis ...

OsAlR3 regulates aluminum tolerance through promoting the secretion of organic acids and the expression of antioxidant genes in rice

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology
In acidic soils, aluminum (Al) toxicity inhibits the growth and development of plant roots and affects nutrient and water absorption, leading to reduced yield and quality.

Could Japonica Rice Be an Alternative Variety for Increased Global Food Security and Climate Change Mitigation?

open access: yesFoods, 2021
The growing importance of rice globally over the past three decades is evident in its strategic place in many countries’ food security planning policies. Still, its cultivation emits substantial greenhouse gases (GHGs).

A key variant in the cis-regulatory element of flowering gene Ghd8 associated with cold tolerance in rice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Variations in the gene promoter play critical roles in the evolution of important adaptive traits in crops, but direct links of the regulatory mutation to the adaptive change are not well understood.

A New Era for Using Natural Pigments: The Case of the C50 Carotenoid Called Bacterioruberin

open access: yesBiotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Haloarchaea are extremophilic microorganisms belonging to the Archaea domain that require high salt concentrations to live, thus inhabiting ecosystems like salty ponds, salty marshes, or extremely salty lagoons. They are more abundant and widely distributed worldwide than initially expected.

Patterns of rice diversity from SNP delineated the origin of the atypical O. sativa group in Madagascar from intermediary forms of the Indian sub-continent [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Madagascar Island was one of the last major Old World areas where human settlement was accompanied by the introduction of Oryza sativa. Early studies had reported the presence of a rice group specific to Madagascar.

Recent Retrotransposon Insertions Are Methylated and Phylogenetically Clustered in Japonica Rice (Oryza sativa spp. japonica) [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology and Evolution, 2012
In plants, the genome of the host responds to the amplification of transposable elements (TEs) with DNA methylation. However, neither the factors involved in TE methylation nor the dynamics of the host-TE interaction are well resolved. Here, we identify 5,522 long terminal repeat retrotransposons (LTR-RT) in the genome of Oryza sativa ssp. japonica and

Diterpenoid Diversity across Land Plants

open access: yesHelvetica Chimica Acta, EarlyView.
Here we bridge the knowledge of diterpene chemical diversity, biosynthesis, and evolution from nonvascular mosses and liverworts to that known from vascular plants. ABSTRACT The diverse array of diterpenoid natural products stems from the ease of manipulating the promiscuity of diterpene cyclases.

Genetic Mechanism of Hybrid Sterility and Utilization of Indica-japonica Inter-subspecific Heterosis in Rice

open access: yesGuangdong nongye kexue, 2022
Asian-cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) consists of two subspecies, indica (Oryza sativa L. indica) and japonica (Oryza sativa L. japonica) subspecies. There are considerable differences between them in morphology, physiology and gene level. The stronger
