The major floral scent compounds of Arabidopsis thaliana flowers are terpenes. Although A. is generally considered to be a self-pollinating plant, there natural variation in terpene volatile emission from flowers. However, the genetic mechanisms underlying scents remain limited. Here, we screened 116 accessions and observed substantial variability levels across these accessions. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) uncovered genomic region associated with myrcene, one monoterpene...
The genus Disporum Salisb. is widely distributed in East Asia, yet phylogenetically relevant morphological traits useful for differentiating many of the small, perennial, herbaceous species remain poorly described. To address this, leaf, floral, pollen, and orbicule micromorphology four Korean was investigated using light scanning electron microscopy. All examined had hypostomatic leaves, with anomocytic stomatal complexes found only on abaxial epidermis. Guard cell length varied among...
Chromosome number and genome size changes via dysploidy polyploidy accompany plant diversification speciation. Such often impact also morphological characters. An excellent system to address the questions of how extensive structured chromosomal within one species complex affect phenotype is monocot Barnardia japonica. This taxon contains two well established distinct diploid cytotypes differing in base chromosome numbers (AA: x = 8, BB: 9) their allopolyploid derivatives on several ploidy...
Changes in chromosome number and karyotype evolution are important to plant diversification, as they both major drivers of speciation processes. Herein, number, karyotype, genome size the Korean lady's slipper orchid Cypripedium japonicum Thunb., an endangered species, were investigated natural populations. Furthermore, all cytological data from this species reported herein for first time. The C. plants was diploid (2n = 2x 22), with x 11 base whereby can now be clearly distinguished...
Abstract Main conclusion The microbial terpene synthase-like of the moss Sanionia uncinata displays convergent evolution a rare plant metabolite amorpha-4,11-diene synthesis. Despite increasing demand for exploration biological resources, diversity natural compounds synthesized by organisms inhabiting various climates remains largely unexplored. This study focuses on , known as predominant species within polar Antarctic Peninsula, to systematically explore its metabolic profile both in-field...
Rhododendron keiskei var. hypoglaucum (Ericaceae) was recently reported in Korea, with a disjunct distribution on the southern islands of Korean Peninsula. Although chromosome numbers and ploidy variations are important traits angiosperms, gaining clear understanding cytological features has been hampered by small size its chromosomes. We herein report number, karyotype structure, genome R. for first time. The number investigated plants 2n = 26 x 13 as base which is one frequently...
