Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Mitigate Drought‐Enhanced Herbivore Performance in Maize

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought events are becoming increasingly frequent and intense, posing major challenges to crop productivity. Beyond direct water stress, drought can indirectly affect plants by enhancing herbivore performance. While arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) have been proposed to alleviate drought stress and to enhance plant resistance to herbivory ...

Expression Studies on AUX1-like Genes in Medicago truncatula Suggest That Auxin Is Required at Two Steps in Early Nodule Development

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2001
Medicago truncatula contains a family of at least five genes related to AUX1 of Arabidopsis thaliana (termed MtLAX genes for Medicago truncatula-like AUX1 genes).

Linking Superoxide Production and Scavenging in Plant Development

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Due to their strong oxidizing potential, rapid membrane permeability, and high reactivity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) play essential roles in plant development and stress responses. Superoxide (O2•‐) is a primary product of molecular oxygen reduction and a crucial source of hydrogen peroxide, representing a ROS species of substantial ...

Three Closely Related Spodoptera Species Similarly Affect Gene Expression and Phytohormone Levels but Differentially Induce Volatile Emissions in Maize

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plants can perceive specific elicitors in the oral secretions (OS) of herbivorous insects and respond by increasing their defences. Whether plants can discriminate among similar herbivorous insect species and differentially modulate their defence responses against them is largely unknown.

Fully Tunable Phosphorylation of RPS6A Ensures the Successful Development of Arabidopsis Seedlings

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Light enhances protein translation, enabling young seedlings to rapidly and timely acquire photosynthetic capacities. Sequential phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6) was implicated in the light‐enhanced translation; however, the exact phosphorylation sites and the biological relevance of RPS6 multi‐phosphorylation in seedling ...

Ploidy-dependent changes in the epigenome of symbiotic cells correlate with specific patterns of gene expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Legume plants are able to interact with Rhizobium bacteria. This interaction leads to the development of a specialized organ called root nodule. Inside the symbiotic nodule cells, rhizobia are capable to fix atmospheric nitrogen and convert it to ammonia,

Transcript correlation analysis for the identification of novel plant genes involved in iron metabolism and beyond: what next?

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Transcript correlation analysis allowed the identification of several key nodes in the complex regulatory network of plant iron metabolism. Abstract Arabidopsis thaliana was the first plant genome to be fully sequenced, almost a quarter of a century ago, thanks to The Arabidopsis Genome Initiative, with contributions from scientists worldwide.

Genetic control and biodiversity of tolerance to Verticillium albo-atrum and Verticillium dahliae in Medicago truncatula [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
La verticilliose est une maladie vasculaire des plantes dont les symptômes typiques sont un flétrissement des parties aériennes, des feuilles chlorosées puis séchées, et dans les cas de maladie grave la mort de la plante. Au niveau des racines on observe
