Plastid Envelope-Localized Proteins Exhibit a Stochastic Spatiotemporal Relationship to Stromules

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Plastids in the viridiplantae sporadically form thin tubules called stromules that increase the interactive surface between the plastid and the surrounding cytoplasm.

Phylogenomic insights into the origin of the Norton grape

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Challenges in viticulture such as disease resistance have renewed interest in underutilized cultivars. The Norton grape, one of the earliest popular North American grape cultivars, holds the potential to produce exceptional wine while being resistant to pests and disease. Yet, the ancestry of the Norton grape is controversial.

Is a spice missing from the recipe? The intra‐cellular localization of vanillin biosynthesis needs further investigations

Plant Biology, Volume 25, Issue 1, Page 3-7, January 2023., 2023
Is there a spice missing in the recipe? The intra‐cellular localization of vanillin biosynthesis needs more investigations. Abstract Vanillin is the most popular flavor compound in the world. Substantial effort were made in the last decades to completely elucidate the metabolic pathway that leads to vanillin in plants, with some controversy reported ...

Visualisation of plastid degradation in sperm cells of wheat pollen [PDF]

, 2016
Like most angiosperms, wheat (Triticum aestivum) shows maternal inheritance of plastids. It is thought that this takes place by cytoplasmic stripping at fertilisation rather than the absence of plastids in sperm cells.

A contemplation on the secondary origin of green algal and plant plastids

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
A single origin of plastids and the monophyly of three “primary” plastid-containing groups – the Chloroplastida (or Viridiplantae; green algae+land plants), Rhodophyta, and Glaucophyta – are widely accepted, mainstream hypotheses that form the basis for ...

Integration of plastids with their hosts: Lessons learned from dinoflagellates. [PDF]

, 2015
After their endosymbiotic acquisition, plastids become intimately connected with the biology of their host. For example, genes essential for plastid function may be relocated from the genomes of plastids to the host nucleus, and pathways may evolve ...

Chloroplasts are central players in sugar-induced leaf growth [PDF]

, 2016
Leaves are the plant's powerhouses, providing energy for all organs through sugar production during photosynthesis. However, sugars serve not only as a metabolic energy source for sink tissues but also as signaling molecules, affecting gene expression ...

Phylogenomics of African Melastomateae (Melastomataceae): Revisiting generic relationships, placement of three enigmatic taxa and description of two new genera

TAXON, EarlyView.
Abstract Evolutionary relationships within the Melastomateae, a diverse tribe within the Melastomataceae, are not yet completely resolved, and some putatively paleoendemic taxa that might alter relationships are still unsampled. This study employs a phylogenomic approach, utilizing target capture data, to revisit generic relationships and shed light on

Haplotype mining panel for genetic dissection and breeding in Eucalyptus

The Plant Journal, Volume 113, Issue 1, Page 174-185, January 2023., 2023
SUMMARY To improve our understanding of genetic mechanisms underlying complex traits in plants, a comprehensive analysis of gene variants is required. Eucalyptus is an important forest plantation genus that is highly outbred. Trait dissection and molecular breeding in eucalypts currently relies on biallelic single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers.

A Bayesian approach to inferring the phylogenetic structure of communities from metagenomic data [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
Metagenomics provides a powerful new tool set for investigating evolutionary interactions with the environment. However, an absence of model-based statistical methods means that researchers are often not able to make full use of this complex information.
