GLABRA3 (GL3) encodes a bHLH protein that interacts with the WD repeat protein, TTG1. GL3 overexpression suppresses trichome defect of pleiotropic ttg1 mutations. However, single gl3 mutations only affect pathway modest number reduction. A novel unlinked bHLH-encoding locus is described here, ENHANCER OF (EGL3). When mutated, egl3 gives totally glabrous plants in mutant background. The double mutant, egl3, has phenotype like having defective anthocyanin production, seed coat mucilage and...
Arabidopsis trichome development and differentiation is a well-studied model for plant cell-fate determination morphogenesis. Mutations in TRANSPARENT TESTA GLABRA1 (TTG1) result several pleiotropic defects including an almost complete lack of trichomes. The complex phenotype caused by ttg1 mutations suppressed ectopic expression the maize anthocyanin regulator R. Here it demonstrated that locus GLABRA3 (GL3) encodes R homolog. GL3 (GL1) interact when overexpressed together plants. Yeast...
Genetic control of embryogenesis switches from the maternal to zygotic genome during maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT), when mRNAs are destroyed, high-level transcription is initiated, replication checkpoint activated and cell cycle slows. The midblastula transition(MBT) first morphological event that requires gene expression. Drosophila MBT marked by blastoderm cellularization follows 13 cleavage-stage divisions. RNA-binding protein Smaug required for cleavage-independent transcript...
Cadmium (Cd) pollution has detrimental effects on the ecological environment and human health. Currently, phytoremediation is considered an environmentally friendly way to remediate Cd pollution.

In order explore important role plants' responses stress, this study investigates proteome phosphoproteome difference between Cd stress + N treatment. total, 6573 proteins were identified, 5838 them quantified. With a...
Trees such as Populus are planted extensively for reforestation and afforestation. However, their successful establishment greatly depends upon ambient environmental conditions relative resistance to abiotic biotic stresses. Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) is a ubiquitous metalloproteinase in plants, which plays crucial roles mediating plant against Although the whole genome sequence of trichocarpa has long been published, little known about PPO genes Populus, especially those related drought...
Abstract Phytoremediation technology can help achieve moderate cost and considerable effect with respect to the remediation of heavy metal (HM) pollution in soil water. Many previous studies have suggested role nitrogen (N) alleviation effects HM on plants. Herein, we sought determine molecular mechanisms by which additional N supplementation mitigates cadmium (Cd) toxicity poplars using a combination physiological, transcriptomic phosphoproteomic analyses. The application alleviate Cd...
Anthocyanins and proanthocyanins (PAs) are two end products of the flavonoid biosynthesis pathway. They believed to be synthesized in endoplasmic reticulum then sequestered into vacuole. In Arabidopsis thaliana, TRANSPARENT TESTA 19 (TT19) is necessary for both anthocyanin PA accumulation. Here, we found that MtGSTF7, a homolog AtTT19, essential accumulation but not required Medicago truncatula. MtGSTF7 was induced by regulator LEGUME ANTHOCYANIN PRODUCTION 1 (LAP1), its tissue expression...
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are widely involved in the regulation of plant growth and development, but their mechanism action response to cold stress plants remains unclear. Here, we found an lncRNA transcribed from antisense strand DgTCP1 (class I Teosinte branched1/Cycloidea/Proliferating [TCP] transcription factor) chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.), named DglncTCP1. During stress, overexpression improved tolerance chrysanthemum, while editing line (dgtcp1) showed decreased...
The bZIP transcription factor plays a very important role in abiotic stresses, e.g. drought, salt, and low-temperature stress, but the mechanism of action at low temperature is still unclear. In this study, overexpression DgbZIP3 led to increased tolerance chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.) cold whereas antisense suppression resulted decreased tolerance.
