Comparative analysis of binding patterns of MADS-domain proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background Correct flower formation requires highly specific temporal and spatial regulation of gene expression. In Arabidopsis thaliana the majority of the master regulators that determine flower organ identity belong to the MADS-domain transcription ...

Functional Analysis of MADS-Box Gene Family in Stress Response and Prospects of Breeding Application [PDF]

Plants
The MADS-box family is a multifunctional family of transcription factors characterized by the presence of a unique MADS domain, which plays an important part in regulating essential biological processes, including metabolic synthesis and the stress ...

Control of the Rhizobia Nitrogen-Fixing Symbiosis by Common Bean MADS-Domain/AGL Transcription Factors

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Plants MADS-domain/AGL proteins constitute a large transcription factor (TF) family that controls the development of almost every plant organ. We performed a phylogeny of (ca. 500) MADS-domain proteins from Arabidopsis and four legume species.

Structural disorder and distinctive motifs in the C-terminal region of the MADS-domain transcription factors are conserved across diverse taxa. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
Plants have acquired the ability to adapt and respond to varying environmental conditions through modifications in their developmental programs. This adaptability relies on the plant's capacity to sense environmental cues and respond via diverse signal ...

Roles of MADS-box transcription factors in plant responses to abiotic and biotic stresses [PDF]

Plant Communications
Plants deploy sophisticated adaptive mechanisms to mitigate the detrimental effects of abiotic stresses (drought, salinity, temperature extremes, and heavy metals) and biotic stresses (pathogens and senescence) on growth and productivity.

AP1 is a pioneer transcription factor that programmes cell fate through MADS-domain protein tetramerisation [PDF]

Genome Biology
Background In animals, pioneer transcription factors (TFs) have long been known to be crucial molecular players in programming cell fate. However, in plants much less is known about this functional class of TFs and how they mechanistically alter local ...

Genome-wide association study reveals the genetic architecture of drought tolerance in maize using yield-based resistance indices and transcriptomic evidence. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract Drought is a major environmental factor limiting maize (Zea mays L.) production worldwide. Unraveling the genetic basis of drought tolerance and pinpointing key loci and candidate genes are fundamental to the molecular breeding of maize with enhanced drought resistance.

Vernalization regulatory network identifies potential novel functions for genes in the HvVRN2 locus. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Flowering is controlled by environmental and genetic factors. Vernalization requirement in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is determined by the allele in HvVRN1 and the presence of locus HvVRN2, which consists of two zinc‐finger and CONSTANS‐like domains (ZCCT) genes: HvVRN2a and HvVRN2b.
