Identification and characterization of the BZR transcription factor family and its expression in response to abiotic stresses in Zea mays L. [PDF]

, 2017
Brassinosteroids (BRs) are plant specific steroidal hormones that play diverse roles in regulating a broad spectrum of plant growth and developmental processes, as well as, in responding to various biotic and abiotic stresses. Extensive research over the

Ribosomal RNA operon copy number: A trait‐informed framework to close the microbial cultivation gap

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
The vast majority of microbes remain uncultured, constraining functional validation and limiting microbiome‐based applications. We show that ribosomal RNA operon (rrn) copy number—a stable, phylogenetically conserved genomic trait—is strongly correlated with cultivation outcomes across ecosystems.

A Rapid Method for Quantifying RNA and Phytohormones From a Small Amount of Plant Tissue

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Phytohormones are involved in most plant physiological processes and the quantification of endogenous phytohormone levels and related gene expressions is an important approach to studying phytohormone functions.

DOF AFFECTING GERMINATION 2 is a positive regulator of light-mediated seed germination and is repressed by DOF AFFECTING GERMINATION 1 [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: The transcription factor DOF AFFECTING GERMINATION1 (DAG1) is a repressor of the light-mediated seed germination process. DAG1 acts downstream PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTOR3-LIKE 5 (PIL5), the master repressor, and negatively regulates ...

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Effect of bio‐fertilization and edapho‐climatic conditions on chickpea nodulation, grain yields, and seed protein in a Mediterranean context: a meta‐analysis approach

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) serve as a protein‐rich staple, particularly in Mediterranean countries, where they are often grown in marginal and water‐stressed areas. This meta‐analysis synthesized evidence from peer‐reviewed publications across Mediterranean countries to assess how chickpea rhizobial inoculation influences chickpea ...

The ABC of Phytohormone Translocation [PDF]

Planta Medica, 2015
ATP-driven transport across biological membranes is a key process to translocate solutes from the interior of the cell to the extracellular environment. In humans, ATP-binding cassette transporters are involved in absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity, and also play a major role in anticancer drug resistance.
