Analysis of chlorophyll fluorescence reveals stage specific patterns of chloroplast-containing cells during Arabidopsis embryogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
http://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0716-97602010000100012&lng=es&nrm=isoThe basic body plan of a plant is established early in embryogenesis when cells differentiate, giving rise to the apical and basal regions of the embryo.

Stochastic processes in gravitropism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this short review we focus on the role of noise in gravitropism of plants – the reorientation of plants according to the direction of gravity. We briefly introduce the conventional picture of static gravisensing in cells specialized in sensing.

Gravitropic Analysis of Tomato Seedlings using Time Lapse Video Imaging

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2015
Plants use gravity as a guide for growth and development. Gravitropism, a gravity-directed growth process, directs upward shoot movement for efficient photosynthesis and gaseous exchange. In addition, it also directs downward growth of roots in soil, for

Polymorphisms and gene expression in the almond IGT family are not correlated to variability in growth habit in major commercial almond cultivars.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Almond breeding programs aimed at selecting cultivars adapted to intensive orchards have recently focused on the optimization of tree architecture. This multifactorial trait is defined by numerous components controlled by processes such as hormonal ...

Sparse panicle1 is required for inflorescence development in Setaria viridis and maize. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Setaria viridis is a rapid-life-cycle model panicoid grass. To identify genes that may contribute to inflorescence architecture and thus have the potential to influence grain yield in related crops such as maize, we conducted an N-nitroso-N-methylurea ...

Brassinosteroid-regulated plant growth and development and gene expression in soybean

open access: yesCrop Journal, 2019
Brassinosteroids (BRs) are endogenous phytohormones that play important roles in regulating plant growth and development. In this study, we evaluated the effects of brassinolide (BL, one of the active BRs) on soybean and identified roles of the hormone ...

Association mapping for important agronomic traits in wild and cultivated Vigna species using cross-species and cross-genera simple sequence repeat markers

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
The genus Vigna is an agronomically important taxon, with many of its species inhabiting a wide range of environments and offering numerous useful genes for the improvement of the cultivated types.

Arabidopsis thaliana: A Model for the Study of Root and Shoot Gravitropism [PDF]

open access: yesThe Arabidopsis Book, 2002
For most plants, shoots grow upward and roots grow downward. These growth patterns illustrate the ability for plant organs to guide their growth at a specified angle from the gravity vector (gravitropism). They allow shoots to grow upward toward light, where they can photosynthesize, and roots to grow downward into the soil, where they can anchor the ...

Multiple roles for membrane-associated protein trafficking and signaling in gravitropism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Gravitropism is a process that allows plant organs to guide their growth relative to the gravity vector. It requires them to sense changes in their orientation and generate a biochemical signal that they transmit to the tissues that drive organ curvature.

Arabidopsis ROOT UVB SENSITIVE2/WEAK AUXIN RESPONSE1 is required for polar auxin transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Auxin is an essential phytohormone that regulates many aspects of plant development. To identify new genes that function in auxin signaling, we performed a genetic screen for Arabidopsis thaliana mutants with an alteration in the expression of the auxin ...
