Chromosome-level baobab genome illuminates its evolutionary trajectory and environmental adaptation

Nature Communications
Baobab (Adansonia digitata) is a long-lived tree endemic to Africa with economic, ecological, and cultural importance, yet its genomic features are underexplored.

Proton-coupled electron transfer constitutes the photoactivation mechanism of the plant photoreceptor UVR8

, 2015
UVR8 is a novel UV-B photoreceptor that regulates a range of plant responses and is already used as a versatile optogenetic tool. Instead of an exogenous chromophore, UVR8 uniquely employs tryptophan side chains to accomplish UV-B photoreception.

Analisi funzionale del gene UVR8 e suo ruolo nella risposta delle piante a stress ambientali [PDF]

, 2015
2010 - 2011Plants are sessile organisms and, therefore, are continuously subjected to environmental sub-optimal or stressful conditions. In an arid environment plants are challenging multiple stresses, such, as water shortage, excessive soil salinity ...

New insights into the mechanisms underlying the UVR8 signaling cascade using yeast and plant systems

, 2016
UV-B, as a component of sunlight, has potentially damaging effects on biomolecules and triggers a photomorphogenic response in plants. UV-B is perceived by UV RESISTANCE LOCUS 8 (UVR8), a β-propeller protein converted from homodimer to monomer upon UV-B ...
