Background Amino acid transporters (AATs) that transport amino acids across cellular membranes are essential for plant growth and development. To date, a genome-wide overview of the AAT gene family in rice is not yet available. Methodology/Principal Findings In this study, total 85 genes were identified genome classified into eleven distinct subfamilies based upon their sequence composition phylogenetic relationship. A large number OsAAT expanded via duplication, 23 24 tandemly segmentally...
Polar auxin transport, mediated by influx and efflux transporters, controls many aspects of plant growth development. The carriers in Arabidopsis have been shown to control lateral root development gravitropism, but little is known about these proteins rice. This paper reports on the functional characterization OsAUX1. Three OsAUX1 T-DNA insertion mutants RNAi knockdown transgenic plants reduced initiation compared with wild-type (WT) plants. overexpression exhibited increased was highly...
Germ-line specification is essential for sexual reproduction. In the ovules of most flowering plants, only a single hypodermal cell enlarges and differentiates into megaspore mother (MMC), founder female germ-line lineage. The molecular mechanisms restricting MMC to remain elusive. We show that Arabidopsis transcription factor WRKY28 exclusively expressed in somatic cells surrounding required repress these from acquiring MMC-like identity. this process, SWR1 chromatin remodeling complex...
Flowering plants display a remarkable diversity in inflorescence architecture, and pedicel length is one of the key contributors to this diversity. In Arabidopsis thaliana, receptor-like kinase ERECTA (ER) mediated signaling pathway plays important roles regulating architecture by promoting cell proliferation. However, mechanism remains elusive pedicel. Genetic interactions between chromatin remodeling complex SWR1 control were studied. Comparative transcriptome analysis was applied identify...
Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2s (UBCs), which catalyze the transfer of ubiquitin to substrate or E3 ligases, are key enzymes in ubiquitination modifications target proteins. However, little is known about knowledge UBC gene family rice. In this study, a total 39 encoding genes, all contained an domain with cysteine active site, were identified rice genome. These classified into fifteen distinct subfamilies based upon their sequence similarity and phylogenetic relationships. A subset 19...
Background Phytocyanins (PCs) are plant-specific blue copper proteins involved in electron transport, and a large number of known PCs considered to be chimeric arabinogalactan (AGPs). To date there has not been genome-wide overview the OsPC gene family. Therefore, as first step useful strategy elucidate functions OsPCs, is an urgent need for thorough analysis this Methodology/Principal Findings In study, total 62 genes were identified through comprehensive bioinformatics rice (Oryza sativa...
Quite a few studies have been conducted to improve the Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of pineapple, which is second most important commercial tropical fruit crop worldwide. However, pineapple remains challenging, due technical difficulties, lengthy regeneration process, and high labor requirement. There not any specifically addressing introduction GFP-tagged genes into pineapples through transformation, would enable easy, non-destructive expression detection. It also allow...
Xylogen, a chimeric arabinogalactan protein containing non-specific lipid transfer domain, can promote xylem cell differentiation. No comprehensive study has been carried out on the XYLP gene family in rice. As first step research this and as useful strategy general, genome-wide analysis of OsXYLP is thus needed.In study, we identified 21 genes from rice genome comprehensively analyzed their structures, phylogenetic relationships, chromosomal locations, duplication status. Our results...
Sucrose non-fermenting 2 (Snf2) protein family, as chromatin remodeling factors, is an enormous and the most diverse which contributes to biological processes of replication, transcription, DNA repair using energy adenosine triphosphate (ATP) hydrolysis. The members Snf2 family proteins have been well characterized in Arabidopsis, rice, tomato. Although this received significant attention, few genes were identified uniquely for their roles mediating reproductive development stress tolerance...
Megasporogenesis is a key step during ovule development in angiosperms, but the small number and inaccessibility of these cells have hampered molecular genome-wide studies. Thus, many questions remain regarding basis cell specification, differentiation, female gametophyte. Here, taking advantage correlation between spikelet length rice (Oryza sativa), we studied transcriptome dynamics young ovules at three stages, archesporial cell, megaspore mother before meiosis, functional after using...
Abstract Background Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) photosynthesis is an important carbon fixation pathway especially in arid environments because it leads to higher water-use efficiency compared C3 and C4 plants. However, the role of DNA methylation regulation CAM not fully understood. Results Here, we performed temporal methylome transcriptome analysis non-photosynthetic (white base) photosynthetic (green tip) tissues pineapple leaf. The patterns levels these two were generally similar...
Polar auxin transport in plant is mediated by influx and efflux transporters, which are encoded AUX/LAX , PIN PILS genes, respectively. The transporter gene families have been characterized several species from monocots eudicots. However, a genome-wide overview of pineapple not yet available. In this study, we identified total three AcAUX 12 AcPIN seven AcPILS genes the genome, were variably located on 15 chromosomes. exon-intron structure these properties deduced proteins relatively...
Panicle type is one of the important factors affecting rice (Oryza sativa L.) yield, and identification regulatory genes in panicle development can provide significant insights into molecular network involved. This study identified a large dense 1 (ldp1) mutant produced from Wuyunjing 7 (WYJ7) genotype, which displayed relative increases length, number primary secondary branches, grains per panicle, grain width, yield plant. Scanning electron microscopy results showed that shoot apical...

However, Ces/Csl family remains be characterized pineapple, a highly valued delicious tropical fruit. Here, we carried out genome-wide study identified total seven Ces genes 25 Csl pineapple. Genomic features phylogeny analysis were out, including phylogenetic tree, chromosomal...
Soil salinization and alkalization are among the major agricultural threats that affect crop productivity worldwide, which increasing day by with an alarming rate. In recent years, several halophytes have been investigated for their utilization in soil remediation to decipher mechanism of salt-tolerance these high salt tolerant genetic repositories. Suaeda salsa is annual halophytic herb family Amaranthaceae, displaying alkali-resistance having nutritive value. However, fundamental...
JASMONATE ZIM-DOMAIN (JAZ) proteins are negative regulators of the jasmonate (JA)-signaling pathway and play pivotal roles in plant resistance to biotic abiotic stresses. Genome-wide identification JAZ genes has been performed many species. However, systematic information about pineapple (Ananas comosus L. Merr.) (AcJAZs) is still not available.
