A Review on Si Uptake and Transport System
Plants, 2019 Silicon (Si) was long listed as a non-essential component for plant growth and development because of its universal availability. However, there has been a resurgence of interest in studying the underlying uptake and transport mechanism of silicon in ...

The phylogenetically-related pattern recognition receptors EFR and XA21 recruit similar immune signaling components in monocots and dicots [PDF]
, 2015 During plant immunity, surface-localized pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). The transfer of PRRs between plant species is a promising strategy for engineering broad-spectrum disease resistance ...

Auxin and Monocot Development [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2010 Monocots are known to respond differently to auxinic herbicides; hence, certain herbicides kill broadleaf (i.e., dicot) weeds while leaving lawns (i.e., monocot grasses) intact. In addition, the characters that distinguish monocots from dicots involve structures whose development is controlled by auxin.

In planta transformation methods to accelerate the domestication of perennial grain crops
Frontiers in Plant ScienceThe domestication of grasses has historically favored annual species due to their rapid growth and suitability for crop rotation; however, such crops rely heavily on human input.

Auxin Polar Transport In Stamen Formation And Development: How Many Actors?
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 In flowering plants, proper development of stamens, the male reproductive organs, is required for successful sexual reproduction. In Arabidopsis thaliana normally six stamen primordia arise in the third whorl of floral organs and subsequently ...

A combinatorial approach to angiosperm pollen morphology [PDF]
, 2016 Angiosperms (flowering plants) are strikingly diverse. This is clearly expressed in the morphology of their pollen grains, which are characterized by enormous variety in their shape and patterning.

Monocot relationships: an overview [PDF]
American Journal of Botany, 2004 In 10 years, the monocots have gone from being one of the least studied and most phylogenetically misunderstood groups of the angiosperms to one of the best characterized. Based on analyses of seven genes representing all three genomes, the following clades have high bootstrap support: Acorales (with the single genus Acorus) is sister to the rest of ...
