Comparative protein analysis of two maize genotypes with contrasting tolerance to low temperature

BMC Plant Biology, 2023
Background Low temperature (LT) stress is one of the major environmental stress factors affecting the growth and yield of maize (Zea mays L.). Hence, it is important to unravel the molecular mechanisms behind LT stress tolerance to improve molecular ...

Subcellular positioning during cell division and cell plate formation in maize

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionDuring proliferative plant cell division, the new cell wall, called the cell plate, is first built in the middle of the cell and then expands outward to complete cytokinesis.

Direct photoresponsive inhibition of a p53-like transcription activation domain in PIF3 by Arabidopsis phytochrome B

Nature Communications, 2021
Photoactivated phytochrome B regulates gene expression by interacting with PIF transcription factors. Here the authors show that PIF3 contains a p53-like transcription activation domain (AD) and that PHYB can directly suppress PIF3 transactivation ...

Higher education students perception of the importance of exsiccata for plant taxonomic identification

Diversitas Journal, 2023
The teaching of Botany, in turn, takes place in a disjointed way and without contextualization, in an approach that makes it difficult to properly learn its concepts. With this, the present work aimed to recognize the importance of botanical collections

Clarification of the dispensability of PDX1.2 for Arabidopsis viability using CRISPR/Cas9

BMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background PDX1.2 has recently been shown to be a regulator of vitamin B6 biosynthesis in plants and is implicated in biotic and abiotic stress resistance. PDX1.2 expression is strongly and rapidly induced by heat stress.
