Abstract Background Impatiens L. is a genus of complex taxonomy that belongs to the family Balsaminaceae (Ericales) and contains approximately 1000 species. The well known for its economic, medicinal, ornamental, horticultural value. However, knowledge about germplasm identification, molecular phylogeny, chloroplast genomics limited, taxonomic uncertainties still exist due overlapping morphological features insufficient genomic resources. Results We sequenced genomes six different species (...
Abstracts Grafting is a highly useful technique, and its success largely depends on graft union formation. In this study, we found that root-specific expression of the auxin biosynthetic gene iaaM in tobacco, when used as rootstock, resulted more rapid callus formation faster healing. However, overexpression auxin-inactivating iaaL rootstocks delayed We observed increased endogenous levels auxin-responsive DR5::GUS scions WT/ grafts compared with those WT/WT grafts, which suggested...
The molecular basis behind shade tolerance in plants is not fully understood. Previously, we have shown that a connection may exist between and dwarfism, however, the mechanism connecting these phenotypes well In order to clarify this connection, analyzed transcriptome of previously identified shade-tolerant mutant perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) called shadow-1. shadow-1 are dwarf, significantly tolerant number environments compared wild-type controls. study, treated with 95% for two...
Genome editing technologies provide a powerful tool for genetic improvement of perennial ryegrass, an important forage and turfgrass species worldwide. The sole publication gene in ryegrass used gene-gun plant transformation dual promoter based CRISPR/Cas9 system editing. However, their efficiency was low (5.9% or only one gene-edited produced). To test the suitability maize Ubiquitin 1 ( ZmUbi1 ) we produced promoter: RUBY transgenic plants. We observed that active callus tissue prior to...
Abstract Long-distance transport or systemic silencing effects of exogenous biologically active RNA molecules in higher plants have not been reported. Here, we report that cationized bovine serum albumin (cBSA) avidly binds double-stranded beta-glucuronidase (dsGUS RNA) to form nucleic acid–protein nanocomplexes. In our experiments with tobacco and poplar plants, successfully demonstrated gene cBSA/dsGUS nanocomplexes when locally applied the from basal ends leaf petioles shoots. We further...
When subjected to shade, plants undergo rapid shoot elongation, which often makes them more prone disease and mechanical damage. Shade-tolerant can be difficult breed; however, they offer a substantial benefit over other varieties in low-light areas. Although perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) is popular species of turf grasses because their good appearance fast establishment, the plant normally does not perform well under shade conditions. It has been reported that, turfgrass, induced...
Prostrate turf varieties are desirable because of their increased low mowing tolerance, heat resistance, traffic resistance and ground coverage compared with upright varieties. Mutation breeding may provide a powerful tool to create prostrate varieties, but there no simple, straightforward methods screen for such mutants. Elucidation the molecular basis major 'green revolution' traits, dwarfism semi-dwarfism, guided us design simple strategy isolating dwarf mutants perennial ryegrass (Lolium...
Impatiens L., the largest genus in family Balsaminaceae with approximately 1,000 species, is a controversial genus. Due to conflict of morphological features and insufficient genomic resources, studies systematic evolution understanding taxonomic identification are considered be very limited. Hence, we have sequenced complete chloroplast genomes three ornamental species (Impatiens balsamina, I. hawkeri, walleriana), compared them previously published wild data. We performed detailed...
Impatiens L., the largest genus in family Balsaminaceae with approximately 1000 species, is a controversial and complex that includes many economically important species well known for medicinal ornamental values. However, there limited knowledge of molecular phylogeny chloroplast genomics, uncertainties still exist at taxonomic level. In this study, we have assembled four genomics specimens cyanantha monticola , which are found different altitudes Guizhou Yunnan China, compared them...
Abstract Deciduous woody plants like poplar (Populus spp.) have seasonal bud dormancy. It has been challenging to simultaneously delay the onset of dormancy in fall and advance break spring, as dormancy, were thought be controlled by different genetic factors. Here, we demonstrate that heterologous expression REVEILLE1 gene (named AaRVE1) from Agave (Agave americana) not only delays but also accelerates field trials. AaRVE1 increases biomass yield 166% greenhouse. Furthermore, reveal...
Although several protocols for genetic transformation of citrus have been published, it is highly desirable to further improve its efficiency. Here we report treatments Agrobacterium cells and explants prior during co-cultivation process enhance efficiency using a commercially used rootstock 'Carrizo' citrange [Citrus sinensis (L.) Osb. × Poncirius trifoliata Raf.] as model plant. We found from light-grown seedlings exhibited higher than those etiolated seedlings. pre-cultured in 1/10 MS,...
Abstract Background: Impatiens, a controversial and complex genus, which belongs to the family Balsaminaceae with approximately 1000 species. The genus is well known for economical, medicinal, ornamental, horticultural values. However, Due morphological features insufficient genomic resources, their analyses of germplasm identification molecular phylogeny are very limited. Results: We have sequenced chloroplast genomes six different species ( I. chlorosepala, fanjingshanica, guizhouensis,...
Abstract Tillering and shade tolerance are important traits in turfgrass, influenced by environmental factors, nutrients, hormones. Shade stress negatively affects tillering. In this study, two dwarf mutants, shadow-1 shadow-2 , developed via Gamma-ray fast-neutron mutagenesis, respectively, showed significantly higher tillering than the wild-type under greenhouse conditions. Both mutants demonstrated plant height, grass quality, color 85% 95% conditions, while shade-induced inhibition of...
Transplanted rice cultivation has caused groundwater depletion in several regions globally. Direct-seeded under aerobic conditions is a water-saving alternative. However, conditions, iron the soil oxidized from ferrous to ferric, which not easily available for rice, resulting deficiency induced chlorosis (IDIC) causing significant reduction yield. Cultivated genotypes have limited variations IDIC tolerance, while wild Oryza germplasm could be potential source tolerance. In this study, 313...

Abstract Promoting initiation and biomass production of roots is significant for plant-based industries including using as bioreactors. Two citrus genotypes, Carrizo US-897, were used model plants to test the effects root-predominantly overexpressed iaaM (indoleacetic acid-tryptophan monooxygenase) gene a CKX (a cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase) gene. The transgenic lines exhibited markedly faster root initiation, more numbers, higher compared their wild-type counterparts. + also similar...
