Plant Chemical Genetics: From Phenotype-Based Screens to Synthetic Biology[OPEN] [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2017 The treatment of a biological system with small molecules to specifically perturb cellular functions is commonly referred to as chemical biology. Small molecules are used commercially as drugs, herbicides, and fungicides in different systems, but in ...

The ecologically relevant genetics of plant-plant interactions.
Trends in Plant Science, 2022 Interactions among plants have been long recognized as a major force driving plant community dynamics and crop yield. Surprisingly, our knowledge of the ecological genetics associated with variation of plant-plant interactions remains limited.

Optimizing the lysis step in CTAB DNA extractions of silica‐dried and herbarium leaf tissues
Applications in Plant Sciences, 2023 Premise The use of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) is an effective and inexpensive method of extracting DNA from plants. The CTAB protocol is frequently modified to optimize DNA extractions, but experimental approaches rarely perturb a single ...

The limits of mean-field heterozygosity estimates under spatial extension in simulated plant populations [PDF]
, 2012 Computational models of evolutionary processes are increasingly required to incorporate multiple and diverse sources of data. A popular feature to include in population genetics models is spatial extension, which reflects more accurately natural ...

The Paleobiolinguistics of Maize (Zea mays L.)
Ethnobiology Letters, 2014 Paleobiolinguistics is used to determine when and where maize (Zea mays) developed significance for different prehistoric groups of Native America. Dates and locations of proto-languages for which maize terms reconstruct generally accord with crop-origin

At the nexus of three kingdoms: the genome of the mycorrhizal fungus Gigaspora margarita provides insights into plant, endobacterial and fungal interactions. [PDF]
, 2020 As members of the plant microbiota, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF, Glomeromycotina) symbiotically colonize plant roots. AMF also possess their own microbiota, hosting some uncultivable endobacteria.
