Morphological Characterization of Prickled and Prickle-free Rubus Using Scanning Electron Microscopy

HortScience, 2020
Caneberry crops (raspberry and blackberry) are globally commercialized specialty crops with a high fresh market value. Field management of canes and harvesting of fruits can be complicated by the presence of prickles (the botanically accurate term rather

Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci Controlling the Development of Prickles in Eggplant by Genome Re-sequencing Analysis

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) is the third most important crop in the family of Solanaceae. Prickles are considered as the undesirable traits during the plantation of eggplant and the transportation of fruits.

Discovery of spatial pattern of prickles on stem of Rosa hybrida ‘Red Queen’ and mathematical model of the pattern

Scientific Reports, 2021
The developmental patterns of many organisms are orchestrated by the diffusion of factors. Here, we report a novel pattern on plant stems that appears to be controlled by inhibitor diffusion.

Distinct overlapping functions for Prickle1 and Prickle2 in the polarization of the airway epithelium

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling polarizes cells within the plane of an epithelium. In the airways, planar cell polarity signaling orients the directional beating of motile cilia required for effective mucociliary clearance.

RNA-Seq Analysis of Prickled and Prickle-Free Epidermis Provides Insight into the Genetics of Prickle Development in Red Raspberry (Rubus ideaus L.)

Agronomy, 2020
Red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) is a globally commercialized specialty crop with growing demand worldwide. The presence of prickles on the stems, petioles and undersides of the leaves complicates both the field management and harvesting of raspberries ...

Combined morphological and multi-omics analyses to reveal the developmental mechanism of Zanthoxylum bungeanum prickles

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Zanthoxylum bungeanum Maxim. as an important economic forest, its epidermis bears prickles which complicate the harvesting process and increase the labor costs. To explore the developmental mechanism of prickles, three varieties of Zanthoxylum bungeanum (

Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) for Examining the Genomics Controlling Prickle Production in Red Raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.)

Agronomy, 2020
Red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) is an expanding high-value berry crop worldwide. The presence of prickles, outgrowths of epidermal tissues lacking vasculature, on the canes, petioles, and undersides of leaves complicates both field management and harvest.

Study on the Ramie Fabric Treated with Copper Ammonia to Slenderize Fiber for Eliminating Prickle

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2023
Ramie fabrics are suitable for summer clothing due to their excellent moisture absorption and breathability. Still, their application in the garment industry is limited by the presence of stiff, coarse hairiness that tends to prickle when it comes into ...

Activity of Smurf2 Ubiquitin Ligase Is Regulated by the Wnt Pathway Protein Dishevelled

Cells, 2020
Wnt and BMP signaling pathways are two key molecular machineries regulating development and homeostasis. The efficient coordination of Wnt and BMP is essential in many developmental processes such as establishment of antero-posterior and dorso-ventral ...

Downregulation of oxidative stress-mediated glial innate immune response suppresses seizures in a fly epilepsy model

Cell Reports, 2023
Summary: Previous work in our laboratory has shown that mutations in prickle (pk) cause myoclonic-like seizures and ataxia in Drosophila, similar to what is observed in humans carrying mutations in orthologous PRICKLE genes.
