Cotton is an excellent model for studying crop polyploidization and domestication. Chromatin profiling helps to reveal how histone modifications are involved in controlling differential gene ...
Copy number variation through gene or chromosome amplification provides a route for rapid phenotypic variation and supports the long-term evolution of gene functions. Although the evolutionary ...
Plant specialized metabolites are chemically diverse, typically species- or taxa-specific and have often evolved in adaptation to the ecological niche of the plant. Within the plant, their production ...
Calcium (Ca2+)-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs or CPKs) are a unique family of Ca2+ sensor/kinase-effector proteins with diverse functions in plants. In Arabidopsis thaliana, CPK28 contributes to ...
ABSTRACT: Polyploidization is one of the most crucial pathways in introducing speciation and broadening biodiversity, especially in the Plant Kingdom. Although the majority of studies have focused ...
That’s according to research published this week in Genes and Development. The article, which draws on work based out of the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research (MPIPZ), demonstrates the ...
RNA-mediated transcriptional gene silencing is a conserved process where small RNAs target transposons and other sequences for repression by establishing chromatin modifications. A central element of ...
In this report, we determined the family-wide expression of VViCPA1 genes in response to both osmotic stress and salinity stress and linked it to the physiological responses. Based on the dynamics of ...
