DELLA proteins are nuclear-localized negative regulators of gibberellin signaling found ubiquitously throughout higher plants. Dominant dwarfing mutations have been primarily responsible for the dramatic increases in harvest index 'green revolution'. Maize contains two genetic loci encoding proteins, dwarf plant8 (d8) and plant 9 (d9). The d8 gene three its dominant alleles previously characterized at molecular level. Almost 20 years after initial description mutant, this investigation...
Summary Sorghum is the fifth most widely planted cereal crop in world and commonly cultivated arid semi‐arid regions such as Africa. Despite its importance a food source, sorghum genetic improvement through transgenic approaches has been limited because of an inefficient transformation system. Here, we report ternary vector (also known cohabitating vector) system using recently described pVIR accessory plasmid that facilitates efficient Agrobacterium ‐mediated sorghum. We regeneration...
Increasing maize grain yield has been a major focus of both plant breeding and genetic engineering to meet the global demand for food, feed, industrial uses. We report that increasing extending expression MADS-box transcription factor gene, zmm28, under control moderate-constitutive promoter, results in plants with increased growth, photosynthesis capacity, nitrogen utilization. Molecular biochemical characterization zmm28 transgenic demonstrated their enhanced agronomic traits are...
Recent breeding efforts in Brassica have focused on the development of new oilseed feedstock crop for biofuels (e.g., ethanol, biodiesel, bio-jet fuel), bio-industrial uses bio-plastics, lubricants), specialty fatty acids erucic acid), and producing low glucosinolates levels feed meal production animal consumption. We identified a novel opportunity to enhance availability nutritious, fresh leafy greens human Here, we demonstrated efficacy disarming 'mustard bomb' reaction reducing pungency...
The ZMM28 protein encoded by the zmm28 gene is endogenous to maize. DP202216 maize was genetically modified increase and extend expression of relative native expression, resulting in plants with enhanced grain yield potential. Evaluation history safe use (HOSU) one component safety assessment framework for a newly expressed GM crop. deduced amino acid sequence introduced identical nonmodified conventional has also been found selected varieties sweet corn kernels, closely related proteins are...
Abstract Motivation: Measurements of gene expression over time enable the reconstruction transcriptional networks. However, Bayesian networks and many other current methods rely on assumptions that conflict with differential equations describe kinetics. Practical approximations kinetic models would inferring causal relationships between genes from data microarray, tag-based conventional platforms, but conclusions are sensitive to made. Results: The representation a sufficiently large portion...
