Multiple Mobile mRNA Signals Regulate Tuber Development in Potato [PDF]
Plants, 2017 Included among the many signals that traffic through the sieve element system are full-length mRNAs that function to respond to the environment and to regulate development.

Mobile Host mRNAs Are Translated to Protein in the Associated Parasitic Plant Cuscuta campestris [PDF]
Plants, 2021 Cuscuta spp. are obligate parasites that connect to host vascular tissue using a haustorium. In addition to water, nutrients, and metabolites, a large number of mRNAs are bidirectionally exchanged between Cuscuta spp. and their hosts. This trans-specific

Mobile Flowering Locus T RNA – Biological Relevance and Biotechnological Potential
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Many systemically mobile mRNAs have been revealed in phloem. However, very few of them have been found to be of clear signaling functions. One of such rare examples is the mobile Flowering locus T (FT) mRNA despite the continuous debate about its ...

Mobile FT mRNA contributes to the systemic florigen signalling in floral induction [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2011 In inducing photoperiodic conditions, plants produce a signal dubbed "florigen" in leaves. Florigen moves through the phloem to the shoot apical meristem (SAM) where it induces flowering. In Arabidopsis, the FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) protein acts as a component of this phloem-mobile signal.

Systemic movement of FT mRNA and a possible role in floral induction
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2012 FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) protein is known to be part of the mobile flowering inducing ‘florigen’ signal in plants, but it may not be acting alone. This article reviews the data that FT mRNA can also move systemically throughout the plant and into the shoot

Using the yeast three-hybrid system to identify proteins that interact with a phloem-mobile mRNA [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2012 Heterografting and RNA transport experiments have demonstrated the long-distance mobility of StBEL5 RNA, its role in controlling tuber formation, and the function of the 503-nt 3´ untranslated region (UTR) of the RNA in mediating transport.

A universal pipeline for mobile mRNA detection and insights into heterografting advantages under chilling stress [PDF]
Horticulture Research, 2020 AbstractHeterografting has long been used to enhance the chilling tolerance of temperature-sensitive crops, including watermelon, whose mechanism is known to involve bidirectional long-distance mRNA movements. Despite several studies reporting on mobile mRNA (mb-mRNA) profiles in plants, accurate identification of mb-mRNAs is challenging owing to an ...

On the overinterpretation of mass screening data – the example of mobile mRNA
Trends in Plant ScienceThe mathematics of mass screening is crucial for understanding results from imperfect detection methods in large datasets. Although this framework is well-established it is not commonly applied in plant biology. Here, we view the identification of messenger RNAs that travel over long distances in plants (mobile mRNAs) through the lens of mass screening

Nature PlantsAbstract Short-read RNA-seq studies of grafted plants have led to the proposal that thousands of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) move over long distances between plant tissues1–7, potentially acting as signals8–12. Transport of mRNAs between cells and tissues has been shown to play a role in several physiological and developmental processes in plants,

Characteristics of long-distance mobile mRNAs from shoot to root in grafted plant species
Horticultural Plant JournalThousands of long-distance mobile mRNAs were identified from different grafting systems, based on high-throughput sequencing technology. Moreover, the long-distance delivery of RNAs was proved to involve multiple mechanisms.
