Plastids, Genomes, and the Probability of Gene Transfer [PDF]

Genome Biology and Evolution, 2011
In a snowball fight, the amount of snow that sticks to your coat depends on the number and size of snowballs that hit you and the stickiness of your coat. Much the same goes for the bombardment of nuclear genomes by organellar genes, according to genome sequence data published in GBE this week (Smith et al. 2011).

Integrative taxonomy supports DNA barcoding in revealing an abundant cryptic species in the United States Coastal Plain

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
We present the most densely sampled phylogeny of Carex section Lupulinae to date (107 specimens) and describe herein a new cryptic species for science from the southern United States, which is locally abundant and found in well‐explored and densely populated areas. Combining DNA sequences with morphometric data obtained from 299 samples, we Demonstrate

Silene, a versatile model system: from sex and genome evolution to ecology and speciation

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Fundamental and applied research in evolutionary biology benefits from the use of model systems in which approaches from disparate disciplines can be integrated. Here, we review recent progress in evolutionary research on the long‐standing model system Silene, a large genus with a well‐resolved phylogeny and newly available, expanded genomic ...

PPT1‐mediated plastidic phosphoenolpyruvate import enhances fatty acid biosynthesis in sugar‐rich tissues

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Metabolic engineering of vegetative tissues for lipid production holds transformative potential for sustainable biofuels, yet achieving sufficient yields remains challenging. Here, we present a strategy to enhance fatty acid synthesis by redirecting cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) into plastids through overexpression of the plastidial ...

Evolutionary History and Taxonomy of the \u3cem\u3eCuscuta umbellata\u3c/em\u3e complex (Convolvulaceae): Evidence of Extensive Hybridization from Discordant Nuclear and Plastid Phylogenies [PDF]

, 2010
The Cuscuta umbellata complex is one of the 15 major clades recently circumscribed in C. subg. Grammica. Most of its members occur in North AMerican and the Caribbean (C. desmouliniana, C. lacerata, C. lacerata, C. leptantha, C.

NPF2 is involved in intracellular pH regulation and ion balance in the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Cellular ion and pH homeostasis are crucial factors affecting and regulating metabolic reactions, protein stability, signalling and transport mechanisms. To balance intracellular ion concentrations, organisms need to constantly sense and respond to both the extracellular environment and cell compartments' requests.

Cytokinin downregulates Photosystem II photochemistry during prolonged darkness in a phytochrome B‐dependent manner

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Cytokinin–phyB signaling modulates PSII photochemistry during prolonged darkness. Summary Cytokinins (CKs) delay dark‐induced senescence, but how they tune photosynthetic function in darkness remains unclear. We investigated the effects of classical aromatic CK benzylaminopurine and CK‐derived compound 1‐(2‐methoxyethyl)‐3‐(1,2,3‐thiadiazol‐5‐yl)urea ...
