ABSTRACT Symbiosis between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and plants plays a crucial role in nutrient acquisition stress resistance for terrestrial plants. microRNAs have been reported to participate the regulation of symbiosis by controlling expression their target genes. Herein, we found that sly‐miR408b was significantly downregulated response colonisation. Overexpression compromised colonisation Rhizophagus irregularis tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ) roots. A basic blue protein gene SlBBP...
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...
In the ovules of most sexually reproducing plants, one hypodermal cell differentiates into a megaspore mother (MMC), which gives rise to female germline. Trans-acting small interfering RNAs known as tasiR-ARFs have been suggested act non-cell-autonomously prevent formation multiple MMCs by repressing AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR3 (ARF3) expression in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), but underlying mechanisms are unknown. Here, we examined tasiR-ARF-related intercellular regulatory mechanisms....
Abstract Female germline cells in flowering plants differentiate from somatic to produce specialized reproductive organs, called ovules, embedded deep inside the flowers. We investigated molecular basis of this distinctive developmental program by performing single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) 16,872 single Arabidopsis thaliana ovule primordia at three time points during female differentiation. This allowed us identify characteristic expression patterns main cell types, including and its...
Abstract Background Transcription factors (TFs) are essential regulators of growth and development in eukaryotes. Basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLHs) is one the most significant TFs families involved several critical regulatory functions. Cryptochrome-interacting bHLH (CIB) cryptochromes form an extensive network to mediate a plethora pathways. Although bHLHs regulate biological processes plants, information about pineapple remains unexplored. Results Here, we identified total 121 proteins...
Abstract The coordinated development of sporophytic and gametophytic tissues is essential for proper ovule patterning fertility. However, the mechanisms regulating their integrated remain poorly understood. Here, we report that Swi2/Snf2-Related1 (SWR1) chromatin-remodeling complex acts with ERECTA receptor kinase-signaling pathway to control female gametophyte integument growth in Arabidopsis thaliana by inhibiting transcription microRNA gene MIR398c early-stage megagametogenesis. Moreover,...
This study identified 57 basic leucine zipper (bZIP) genes from the pineapple genome, and analysis of these bZIP was focused on evolution divergence after multiple duplication events in relation to genome fusion. According bioinformatics a phylogenetic tree, gene family divided into 11 subgroups pineapple, Arabidopsis, rice; structure conserved motif analyses showed that within same subgroup shared similar intron-exon organizations composition. Further synteny 17 segmental with 27 genes. The...
DNA methylation is a highly conserved epigenetic modification involved in many biological processes, including growth and development, stress response, secondary metabolism. demethylase (DNA-deMTase) genes have been identified some plant species; however, there are no reports on the identification analysis of DNA-deMTase Foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.). In this study, seven DNA-deMTases were S. italica. These divided into four subfamilies (DML5, DML4, DML3, ROS1) by phylogenetic gene...
Background Sugarcane ( Saccharum spontaneum L.), the major sugar and biofuel feedstock crop, is cultivated mainly by vegetative propagation worldwide due to infertility of female reproductive organs resulting in reduction quality output sugar. Deciphering gene expression profile during ovule development will improve our understanding complications underlying sexual reproduction sugarcane. Optimal reference genes are essential for elucidating pattern a given quantitative real-time PCR...
