Reference genome sequence of the model plant Setaria [PDF]

Nature Biotechnology, 2012
We generated a high-quality reference genome sequence for foxtail millet (Setaria italica). The ∼400-Mb assembly covers ∼80% of the genome and >95% of the gene space.

The C4 Model Grass Setaria Is a Short Day Plant with Secondary Long Day Genetic Regulation [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
The effect of photoperiod (day:night ratio) on flowering time was investigated in the wild species, Setaria viridis, and in a set of recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between foxtail millet (S.

A mass and charge balanced metabolic model of Setaria viridis revealed mechanisms of proton balancing in C4 plants [PDF]

BMC Bioinformatics, 2019
Background C4 photosynthesis is a key domain of plant research with outcomes ranging from crop quality improvement, biofuel production and efficient use of water and nutrients. A metabolic network model of C4 “lab organism” Setaria viridis with extensive

Validating Internal Control Genes for the Accurate Normalization of qPCR Expression Analysis of the Novel Model Plant Setaria viridis

PLOS ONE, 2015
Employing reference genes to normalize the data generated with quantitative PCR (qPCR) can increase the accuracy and reliability of this method. Previous results have shown that no single housekeeping gene can be universally applied to all experiments ...

Genome-Wide Investigation and Expression Analyses of WD40 Protein Family in the Model Plant Foxtail Millet (Setaria italica L.)

PLoS ONE, 2014
WD40 proteins play a crucial role in diverse protein-protein interactions by acting as scaffolding molecules and thus assisting in the proper activity of proteins. Hence, systematic characterization and expression profiling of these WD40 genes in foxtail

Genomic characterization and expression analysis of TCP transcription factors in Setaria italica and Setaria viridis

Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2022
The plant-specific TCP transcription factor plays important roles in plant development and environment adaptation. Setaria italica and Setaria viridis, the C4 model plants, can grow on drought or arid soils.

A genetic link between leaf carbon isotope composition and whole-plant water use efficiency in the C4 grass Setaria.

The Plant Journal, 2020
Genetic selection for whole plant water use efficiency (yield per transpiration; WUEplant ) in any crop-breeding program requires high throughput phenotyping of component traits of WUEplant such as intrinsic water use efficiency (WUEi ; CO2 assimilation ...

An E2-E3 pair contributes to seed size control in grain crops

Nature Communications, 2023
Understanding the molecular mechanisms that regulate grain yield is important for improving agricultural productivity. Protein ubiquitination controls various aspects of plant growth but lacks understanding on how E2-E3 enzyme pairs impact grain yield in
