Remote Sensing of Endogenous Pigmentation by Inducible Synthetic Circuits in Grasses
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant synthetic biology holds great promise for engineering plants to meet future demands. Genetic circuits are being designed, built and tested in plants to demonstrate the proof of concept. However, developing these components in monocots, which the world relies on for grain, lags behind dicot models, such as Arabidopsis thaliana and ...

Setaria viridis floral-dip: A simple and rapid Agrobacterium-mediated transformation method
Biotechnology Reports, 2015 Setaria viridis was recently described as a new monocotyledonous model species for C4 photosynthesis research and genetic transformation. It has biological attributes (rapid life cycle, small genome, diploid, short stature and simple growth requirements)

Seed production in weedy Setaria spp.-gp [PDF]
, 2011 Seeds from Setaria faberi, S. viridis and S. pumila panicles in three Iowa crop fields were collected for the entire reproductive period. Seed number, panicle length, and seed number per panicle length varied among species, panicle types and sites ...

Grass Hosts of Cereal Aphids (Hemiptera: Aphididae) Between Wheat-Cropping Cycles in South Dakota [PDF]
, 2018 Several grasses may serve as alternative hosts for cereal aphids during the interim between small-grain crops in South Dakota, but field studies to determine which grasses are important have not been undertaken.

Serial Spatial Transcriptomes Reveal Regulatory Transitions in Maize Leaf Development
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant leaves originate from the shoot apical meristem (SAM) and undergo a developmental process of highly coordinated gene expression regulation. To date, only a few key regulators have been identified and characterised, so the gene expression cascades responsible for leaf cell specification and differentiation from SAM remain largely elusive.

Species-Associated Differences in the Below-Ground Microbiomes of Wild and Domesticated Setaria
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 The rhizosphere microbiome is known to play a crucial role in promoting plant growth, partly by countering soil-borne phytoparasites and by improving nutrient uptake.

Mechanical Strength: An Unrecognised Target in the Genetic Improvement of Crops
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Leaf angle (LA) is a crucial agronomic trait influencing planting density and crop yield. Previous research highlighted the importance of cellular variations in the ligular region for determining LA, but the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain unclear.
