Biologically active Phytophthora mating hormone prepared by catalytic asymmetric total synthesis [PDF]

, 2008
A Phytophthora mating hormone with an array of 1,5-stereogenic centers has been synthesized by using our recently developed methodology of catalytic enantioselective conjugate addition of Grignard reagents. We applied this methodology in a diastereo- and

Is bacterial microbiome from the Polemonium caeruleum L. (Polemoniaceae) nectar geographically variable?

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2019
Floral nectar is one of the key rewards in the mutualistic interactions between plants and pollinators. However, there is a growing amount of evidence that shows that another group of organisms may be involved in the pollination process, namely the ...

CRISPR-TSKO : a technique for efficient mutagenesis in specific cell types, tissues, or organs in Arabidopsis [PDF]

, 2019
Detailed functional analyses of many fundamentally important plant genes via conventional loss-of-function approaches are impeded by the severe pleiotropic phenotypes resulting from these losses.

Protein Farnesylation Takes Part in Arabidopsis Seed Development

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Protein farnesylation is a post-translational modification regulated by the ERA1 (Enhanced Response to ABA 1) gene encoding the β-subunit of the protein farnesyltransferase in Arabidopsis.

Understanding plant reproductive diversity [PDF]

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2010
Flowering plants display spectacular floral diversity and a bewildering array of reproductive adaptations that promote mating, particularly outbreeding. A striking feature of this diversity is that related species often differ in pollination and mating systems, and intraspecific variation in sexual traits is not unusual, especially among herbaceous ...

Finished Genome of the Fungal Wheat Pathogen Mycosphaerella graminicola Reveals Dispensome Structure, Chromosome Plasticity, and Stealth Pathogenesis [PDF]

, 2011
The plant-pathogenic fungus Mycosphaerella graminicola (asexual stage: Septoria tritici) causes septoria tritici blotch, a disease that greatly reduces the yield and quality of wheat.

RNA-Seq Highlights Molecular Events Associated With Impaired Pollen-Pistil Interactions Following Short-Term Heat Stress in Brassica napus

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The global climate change is leading to increased frequency of heatwaves with crops getting exposed to extreme temperature events. Such temperature spikes during the reproductive stage of plant development can harm crop fertility and productivity.

Cold Tolerance of the Male Gametophyte during Germination and Tube Growth Depends on the Flowering Time

Plants, 2016
In temperate climates, most plants flower during the warmer season of the year to avoid negative effects of low temperatures on reproduction. Nevertheless, few species bloom in midwinter and early spring despite severe and frequent frosts at that time ...
