The DOG1 protein is a major regulator of seed dormancy in Arabidopsis. Here, Née et al. provide evidence that DOG1 can interact with the type 2C protein phosphatases AHG1 and AHG3 and that this represents the convergence point of the DOG1-regulated ...

Recognition of Pep-13/25 MAMPs of Phytophthora localizes to an RLK locus in Solanum microdontum
Pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) in plants is mediated by cell surface-localized pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) upon perception of microbe-associated molecular pattern (MAMPs). MAMPs are conserved molecules across microbe species, or even kingdoms,

Biotechnology and Plant Breeding [PDF]
ABSTRACTPlant breeding is an integrative discipline that is defined by the product, i. e., a crop cultivar. Principles of breeding provide the framework, while technologies (including biotechnology) provide the tools for implementation. The successful execution of plant breeding depends on: availability of genetically variable populations, effective ...
