MADS specificity : Unravelling the dual function of the MADS domain protein FRUITFULL
Encrypted in the DNA lays most information needed for the development of an organism. The transcription of this information into precise patterns of gene activity results in the development of different cell types, organs, and developmental structures.

The MADS Domain Protein DIANA Acts Together with AGAMOUS-LIKE80 to Specify the Central Cell inArabidopsisOvules [PDF]
AbstractMADS box genes in plants consist of MIKC-type and type I genes. While MIKC-type genes have been studied extensively, the functions of type I genes are still poorly understood. Evidence suggests that type I MADS box genes are involved in embryo sac and seed development.

A Petunia homeodomain-leucine zipper protein, PhHD-Zip, plays an important role in flower senescence. [PDF]
Flower senescence is initiated by developmental and environmental signals, and regulated by gene transcription. A homeodomain-leucine zipper transcription factor, PhHD-Zip, is up-regulated during petunia flower senescence. Virus-induced gene silencing of

A marker-based strategy for the assessment of epigenetic instability in oil palm [PDF]
Plant tissues from the mantled somaclonal variant of oil palm have been found to display both large-scale perturbations of genomic methylation levels and sequence-specific DNA methylation pattern changes when compared to their true-to-type counterparts ...
