Abstract The OsCPK4 gene is a member of the complex family calcium-dependent protein kinases in rice (Oryza sativa). Here, we report that expression induced by high salinity, drought, and phytohormone abscisic acid. Moreover, plasma membrane localization was observed transient assays green fluorescent protein-tagged onion (Allium cepa) epidermal cells. Overexpression plants significantly enhances tolerance to salt drought stress. Knockdown plants, however, are severely impaired growth...
Rice (Oryza sativa) stands among the world's most important crop species. is salt sensitive, and undue accumulation of sodium ions (Na+) in shoots has strongest negative correlation with rice productivity under long-term salinity. The plasma membrane Na+/H+ exchanger protein Salt Overly Sensitive 1 (SOS1) sole Na+ efflux transporter that been genetically characterized to date. Here, importance SOS1-facilitated flux tolerance was analyzed a reverse-genetics approach. A sos1 loss-of-function...
Abstract Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchoring provides an alternative to transmembrane domains for proteins the cell surface in eukaryotes. GPI anchors are synthesized endoplasmic reticulum via sequential addition of monosaccharides, fatty acids, and phosphoethanolamines phosphatidylinositol. Deficiencies biosynthesis lead embryonic lethality animals conditional eukaryotic microbes by blocking growth, division, or morphogenesis. We report genetic phenotypic analysis insertional...
TILLING (Targeting Induced Local Lesions IN Genomes) is a reverse genetic method that combines chemical mutagenesis with high-throughput genome-wide screening for point mutation detection in genes of interest. However, this discovery approach faces particular problem which how to obtain mutant population sufficiently high density. Furthermore, plant protocols require two successive generations (M1, M2) fixation occur before the analysis genotype can begin. Here, we describe new rice based on...
Abstract To identify genes with essential roles in male gametophytic development, including postpollination (progamic) events, we have undertaken a genetic screen based on segregation ratio distortion of transposon-borne kanamycin-resistance marker. In population 3359 Arabidopsis Ds transposon insertion lines, identified 20 mutants stably reduced ratios arising from transmission. All showed strict cosegregation and the transmission phenotype. Among these, 10 affected both female...
Abstract In flowering plants, the vegetative nucleus and two sperm cells are proposed to form a functional assemblage, male germ unit (MGU). Here, we describe developmental pathway of MGU assembly in Arabidopsis report classes mutations that affect integrity and/or positioning mature pollen grain. malformed (gum) mutants, is positioned adjacent grain wall, separate from cells, whereas displaced (mud) intact wall.mud gum mutants correspond male-specific gametophytic also reduce fitness....
Salinity is a complex trait that affects growth and productivity in many crops, including rice. Mutation induction, useful tool to generate salt tolerant plants, enables the analysis of plants with similar genetic background, facilitating understanding tolerance mechanisms. In this work, we generated three mutant lines by irradiation salt-sensitive cultivar screened M2 at seedling stage presence high salinity. These lines, SaT20, SaS62 SaT58, showed different responses salinity, but...
Rapid and reliable diagnosis of endometrial cancer (EC) in uterine aspirates is highly desirable. Current sensitivity failure rate histological limit the success this method subsequent hysteroscopy often necessary. Using quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction on RNA from samples, we measured expression level 20 previously identified genes involved EC pathology, created five algorithms based combinations evaluated their ability to diagnose EC. The were tested a...
