Abstract Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small, non-coding regulatory RNAs that regulate gene expression by guiding target mRNA cleavage or translational inhibition. So far, identification miRNAs has been limited to few model plant species, such as Arabidopsis , rice and Populus whose genomes have sequenced. Wheat is one the most important cereal crops worldwide. To date, only conserved predicted in wheat computational requires genome sequence, which unknown. Results identify...

Gluten is composed of glutenins and gliadins determines the viscoelastic properties dough end-use quality in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Gliadins are important for traits, but contribution individual gliadin genes unclear, since encoded by a complex, multigenic family, including many pseudogenes. We used CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing map-based cloning to investigate γ-gliadin annotated cultivar 'Fielder', showing that Gli-γ1-1D Gli-γ2-1B account most accumulation. The impaired activity...

Histone deacetylases (HDACs) regulate histone acetylation levels by removing the acetyl group from lysine residues. The maize (Zea mays) HDAC HDA101 influences several aspects of development, including kernel size; however, molecular mechanism which affects development remains unknown. In this study, we find that regulates expression transfer cell-specific genes, suggesting their misregulation may be associated with defects in differentiation endosperm cells and smaller kernels observed...
