Evaluation of the genotoxic and teratogenic potential of a municipal sludge and sludge-amended soil using the amphibian Xenopus laevis and the tobacco: Nicotiana tabacum L. var. xanthi Dulieu [PDF]

, 2003
The toxic, genotoxic and teratogenicpotential of amunicipal sewage sludge was assessed using the micronucleus assay on the larvae of the amphibianXenopuslaevis and with the tobacco somatic mutation test using the yellow–green xanthiDulieu mutant a1+/a1 ...

Polyadenylation Complex CFII Recognizes Downstream Cis‐element for Pre‐mRNA Polyadenylation Through Interaction with an RNA‐Binding Protein in Arabidopsis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the cis‐element in pre‐mRNA recognized by the polyadenylation CFII complex. It elucidates how the CFII complex recognizes the consensus cis‐element downstream of the poly(A) site for pre‐mRNA alternative polyadenylation. This comprehensive research provides novel insights into the interaction between 3′ end processing complexes ...

Co‐Selection of Low Cadmium Accumulation and High Yield During Tomato Improvement

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study finds that large‐fruited tomatoes accumulate less cadmium (Cd) compared to wild tomatoes and cherry tomatoes. This is because, during the improvement process of tomato, the low‐Cd allele LCT1A and the large fruit allele fw3.2T are closely linked, leading to a co‐selection event.

RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation as a tool to investigate plant miRNA processing interference by regulatory proteins of diverse origin [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Due to the nature of viral RNA genomes, RNA viruses depend on many RNA-binding proteins (RBP) of viral and host origin for replication, dissemination and evasion of host RNA degradation pathways.

Silencing Nicotiana attenuata LHY and ZTL alters circadian rhythms in flowers.

New Phytologist, 2016
The rhythmic opening/closing and volatile emissions of flowers are known to attract pollinators at specific times. That these rhythms are maintained under constant light or dark conditions suggests a circadian clock involvement.

GmSop20 Functions as a Key Coordinator of the Oil‐To‐Protein Ratio in Soybean Seeds

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the seed oil‐to‐protein ratio as a comprehensive quality metric and identifies GmSop20 as a crucial regulatory gene through forward genetics methodologies. By integrating GmSop20 with superior haplotypes and using gene editing/overexpression, new strategies are provided for precisely tuning the seed oil‐to‐protein ratio, thereby

Reaction of Nicotiana species and cultivars of tobacco to Tobacco mosaic virus and detection of the N gene that confers hypersensitive resistance

Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2018
Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) brings increasing losses in the cultivation of tobacco. Sixty-two cultivars of tobacco and eleven species of Nicotiana were evaluated for resistance to TMV.

Nectar sugars and amino acids in day- and night-flowering Nicotiana species are more strongly shaped by pollinators’ preferences than organic acids and inorganic ions

PLoS ONE, 2017
Floral nectar contains mainly sugars but also amino acids, organic acids, inorganic ions and secondary compounds to attract pollinators. The genus Nicotiana exhibits great diversity among species in floral morphology, flowering time, nectar compositions,

Post‐Translational Modifications of TOE3 Regulate Antiviral Defense in Tobacco

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CK2αL phosphorylates TOE3 and enhances its stability, while FBXL1 promotes the ubiquitination‐degradation of TOE3 via the 26S proteasome. Compared to CK2αL‐phosphorylated TOE3, nonphosphorylated TOE3 shows a much higher affinity for FBXL1 and is more susceptible to ubiquitination‐degradation, thus facilitating viral infection. The regulatory mechanisms
