Exploring the diversity of plant proteome [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, 2021
AbstractThe tremendous functional, spatial, and temporal diversity of the plant proteome is regulated by multiple factors that continuously modify protein abundance, modifications, interactions, localization, and activity to meet the dynamic needs of plants.

Plant diversity of the Pantanal wetland [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology, 2011
This is a review of current studies in diversity of the flora and main vegetation types in the Brazilian Pantanal. The flora of this wetland, nearly 2,000 species, constitutes a pool of elements of wide distribution and from more or less adjacent phytogeographic provinces, such as Cerrado, dry seasonal forests, Chaco, Amazonia and Atlantic Forest.

Terpene produced by coexpression of the TPS and P450 genes from Lavandula angustifolia protects plants from herbivore attacks during budding stages

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2023
To deter herbivore attacks, plants employ a diverse array of volatile compounds, particularly during the early developmental stages. The highly expressed genes LaTPS7, LaTPS8, and LaCYP71D582 were identified during the budding phases of Lavandula ...

Identification of errors in draft genome assemblies at single-nucleotide resolution for quality assessment and improvement

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Assembly of a high-quality genome is important for downstream comparative and functional genomic studies. However, most tools for genome assembly assessment only give qualitative reports, which do not pinpoint assembly errors at specific regions.

Diversity and epidemiology of plant rhabdoviruses

open access: yesVirus Research, 2020
Plant rhabdoviruses are recognized by their large bacilliform particles and for being able to replicate in both their plant hosts and arthropod vectors. This review highlights selected, better studied examples of plant rhabdoviruses, their genetic diversity, epidemiology and interactions with plant hosts and arthropod vectors: Alfalfa dwarf virus is ...

Seeds of understanding of plant diversity [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2003
Forests, grasslands, and other plant communities often contain large numbers of plant species; in the extreme, over a thousand tree species may be present in a single square kilometer of tropical forest (1). Ecologists have long sought to understand what factors govern the array of plant species present in any particular area, and indeed, how so many ...
