The Role of UV-B light on Small RNA Activity During Grapevine Berry Development
We explored the effects of ultraviolet B radiation (UV-B) on the developmental dynamics of microRNAs and phased small-interfering-RNA (phasi-RNAs)-producing loci by sequencing small RNAs in vegetative and reproductive organs of grapevine (Vitis vinifera ...

Light signals and flowering [PDF]
Physiological studies over a long period have shown that light acts to regulate flowering through the three main variables of quality, quantity, and duration. Intensive molecular genetic and genomic studies with the model plant Arabidopsis have given considerable insight into the mechanisms involved, particularly with regard to quality and photoperiod.

Signal Integration in Plant Abiotic Stress Responses via Multistep Phosphorelay Signaling
Plants growing in any particular geographical location are exposed to variable and diverse environmental conditions throughout their lifespan. The multifactorial environmental pressure resulted into evolution of plant adaptation and survival strategies ...

Light perception and signalling by phytochrome A [PDF]
In etiolated seedlings, phytochrome A (phyA) mediates very-low-fluence responses (VLFRs), which initiate de-etiolation at the interphase between the soil and above-ground environments, and high-irradiance responses (HIR), which complete de-etiolation under dense canopies and require more sustained activation with far-red light.

Light signaling: back to space [PDF]
Recent work has increased our understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms of the phytochrome family of photoreceptors in controlling plant photomorphogenesis. However, the importance of long-distance communication in controlling light responses has received relatively little attention and is poorly understood.

Light-triggered transcriptome reprogramming is critical for promoting photomorphogenesis in Arabidopsis seedlings. Nonetheless, recent studies have shed light on the importance of alternative pre-mRNA splicing (AS) in photomorphogenesis.

Transduction of Blue-Light Signals [PDF]
BUT IS IT AN ELEPHANT? In the old tale, several blind men are taken to an elephant. In turn, each is asked to examine and identify the mystery object. One blind man examines a leg and claims it to be a tree, another, examining the trunk, claims it to be a snake, and yet another, feeling a tusk, claims it to be a smooth rock. The pattern continues: each

Profiling DNA damage response following mitotic perturbations
DNA damage arising from replication stress is well studied, but the effect of mitotic errors on genome integrity is less understood. Here the authors knock down 47 mitotic regulators and record how they impact on DNA breakage events, providing a resource

Light Signaling, Root Development, and Plasticity [PDF]
Light is the energy source for plants as it drives photosynthesis to produce sugars. Given the obvious fact that light mostly occurs aboveground and not in the soil, most interactions of plants with light have been studied in shoot parts of the plant.
