Cotton fibers are single-celled trichomes that initiate from the epidermal cells of ovules at or before anthesis. Here, we identified histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity is essential for proper cotton fiber initiation. We further 15 HDACs homoeologs in each A- and D-subgenomes Gossypium hirsutum. Few these HDAC expressed preferentially during early stages development [-1, 0 6 days post-anthesis (DPA)]. Among them, GhHDA5 significantly time initiation (-1 DPA). The vitro assay indicated...
Summary The sequence information has been proved to be an essential genomic resource in case of crop plants for their genetic improvement and better utilization by humans. To dissect the G ossypium hirsutum genome large‐scale development resources, we adopted hypomethylated restriction‐based enrichment strategy six diverse genotypes. Approximately 5.2‐Gb data (more than 18.36 million reads) was generated which, after assembly, represents nearly 1.27‐Gb sequences. We predicted a total 93 363...
An understanding of the level genetic diversity is a prerequisite for designing efficient breeding programs. Fifty-one cultivars four cotton species (Gossypium hirsutum, G. barbadense, herbaceum and arboreum) representing core collections at major research stations with wide range eco-geographical regions in India were examined diversity, distinct subpopulations linkage disequilibrium (LD) using 1100 amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers 16 primer pairs combinations. The AFLP...
Climate change inflicts several stresses on plants, of which dehydration stress severely affects growth and productivity. C4 plants possess better adaptability to stress; however, the role epigenetic modifications underlying this trait is unclear. In particular, molecular links between histone modifiers their regulation remain elusive. study, genome-wide H3K9 acetylation (H3K9ac) enrichment using ChIP-sequencing was performed in two foxtail millet cultivars with contrasting tolerances...
Stresses have been known to cause various responses like cellular physiology, gene regulation, and genome remodeling in the organism cope survive. Here, we assessed impact of stress conditions on chromatin-interactome network Arabidopsis thaliana . We identified thousands chromatin interactions native as well salicylic acid treatment high temperature a genome-wide fashion. Our analysis revealed definite pattern could modulate dynamics interactions. found heterochromatic region actively...
Abstract Background Histochemical and microscopic observations of various tissues the underutilized legume winged bean ( Psophocarpus tetragonolobus (L.) DC.) indicated that plant its parts are highly infested with condensed tannin (CT). Characterization CT was carried out through quantification structural-monomeric units catechin epicatechin. The responsible candidate gene for anthocyanidin synthase (ANS) biosynthesis identified, phylogenetically mapped manipulated lowering CT-content....
Abstract Drought stress affects the growth and productivity of plants, where C 4 plants can advantageously perceive respond to for their survival reproduction. Epigenetic modifications play a prominent role in conferring drought tolerance plants; however, molecular links between histone modifiers regulation are unclear. In present study, we performed genome-wide H3K9ac enrichment foxtail millet ( Setaria italica ) analyzed regulating expression drought-responsive genes. The presence on these...
Heterosis is an important phenomenon for the breeding in agricultural crops as it influences yield related traits such biomass yield, seed number and weight, adaptive reproductive traits.However, level of heterosis greatly varies different genotypes.The present study focuses on identification physical interactions between alleles their role transcriptional regulation heterotic plants.Here, we used two Arabidopsis ecotypes; Col-0 C24 parent crosses.We performed crossing these ecotypes...
