Inducible Overexpression of a Rice Allene Oxide Synthase Gene Increases the Endogenous Jasmonic Acid Level, PR Gene Expression, and Host Resistance to Fungal Infection

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2006
Many studies in dicotyledonous plants have shown that jasmonates, including jasmonic acid (JA) and methyl jasmonate, are important signal molecules involved in induced resistance to pathogen infection and insect herbivory.

Making Two out of One: Kinesin Motors Driving Plant Cell Division

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Kinesin superfamily of microtubule dependent motors is present in all eukaryotes. Not all of the subfamilies are represented in all kingdoms, and the ones that are do not always show conserved functions. Tight control of the cytoskeleton is essential for proper progression and completion of mitosis and cytokinesis, and key functions are ...

Characterization of Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Roots Versus Root Pulling Resistance as Selection Indices for Draught Tolerance [PDF]

, 1989
A technique described as Root Pulling Resistance (RPR) was used to evaluate genotypic differences in root growth and development of 50 rice germplasm accessions and cultivars. Several root characteristics in rice are associated with drought tolerance and

Food Fortification: Strategy to Combat Hidden Hunger: A Systematic Review

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Food fortification involves adding essential vitamins and minerals (e.g., iron, iodine, vitamin A, and folic acid) to staple foods such as salt, wheat flour, rice, and oil. ABSTRACT Hidden hunger or micronutrient deficiency, affects over two billion people worldwide, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries. This global problem impacts nearly a

Genome-wide identification of CRF gene family members in four rice subspecies and expression analysis of OsCRF members in response to cold stress at seedling stage

Scientific Reports
Cytokinin Response Factors (CRFs) play a crucial role in plant growth and development, hormone signaling, and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, there have been no reports on CRF genes in rice until now.

Analysis of tail-anchored protein translocation pathway in plants

Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2018
Tail-anchored (TA) proteins are a special class of membrane proteins that carry out vital functions in all living cells. Targeting mechanisms of TA proteins are investigated as the best example for post-translational protein targeting in yeast.
