The roads most traveled: genetic convergence in plant repeated evolution
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Observation of a genotype–phenotype association in a focal lineage (magnifying lens) provides a starting point for predicting homolog reuse during repeated trait evolution. This review suggests that the likelihood that mutations in homologous genes contribute to similar phenotypes in other lineages depends on both mutational effect stability (MES) and ...

Hydrogen peroxide and lignification [PDF]
The Plant Journal, 1993 The production of hydrogen peroxide in plant tissue is demonstrated quickly with a simple histochemical test. The test solution, 50 mM potassium iodide in a 4% (w/v) potato starch suspension, is applied to the cut surface of the tissue to be tested. Hydrogen peroxide oxidizes iodide ions to iodine; the iodine is complexed by the starch to form a blue ...

Nitrate Modulates Fruit Lignification by Regulating CgLAC3 Expression in Pomelo
Lignification of juice sacs is a primary contributor to reductions in fruit quality, with impacts on taste and economic value of pomelo (Citrus grandis). To date, information on the regulation of fruit lignification remains fragmentary. In this study, we

Cellular Control and Physiological Importance of Vascular Lignification [Elektronisk resurs]
, 2022 Lignin is indispensable for vascular plants. It allows their cells to coalesce into gravity-defying giants, hardens them to withstand pressures and predators, and waterproofs them to allow the flow of water only where it is advantageous.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Model of the cell wall damage (CWD)‐responsive signaling network leading to camalexin biosynthesis. Summary Plant cell walls constitute dynamic barriers that are essential for defense against pathogens. Beyond a structural role in blocking pathogen infection, innate mechanisms monitor cell wall integrity (CWI) in Arabidopsis thaliana and trigger local ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Drought stress is a major limitation to global wheat production. Here, we demonstrate that the wheat gene TaCOMT1A, encoding a caffeic acid O‐methyltransferase, plays a crucial role in enhancing drought tolerance in wheat. Overexpression of TaCOMT1A significantly improved drought tolerance at the seedling stage, as evidenced by higher survival

Characterisation of a pine MYB that regulates lignification [PDF]
The Plant Journal, 2003 SummaryA member of the R2R3‐MYB family of transcription factors was cloned from a cDNA library constructed from RNA isolated from differentiating pine xylem. This MYB, Pinus taeda MYB4 (PtMYB4), is expressed in cells undergoing lignification, as revealed by in situ RT‐PCR.
