SUMMARY The architecture of the rice inflorescence is an important determinant crop yield. length and number branches are among key factors determining spikelets, thus grains, that a plant will develop. In particular, timing identity transition from indeterminate branch meristem to determinate spikelet governs complexity inflorescence. this context, ALOG gene TAWAWA1 ( TAW1 ) has been shown delay development in Oryza sativa (rice). Recently, by combining precise laser microdissection...
The ALOG (Arabidopsis LIGHT-DEPENDENT SHORT HYPOCOTYLS 1 (LSH1) and Oryza G1) proteins are conserved plant-specific Transcription Factors (TFs). They play critical roles in the development of various plant organs (meristems, inflorescences, floral organs, nodules) from bryophytes to higher flowering plants. Despite fact that first members this family were originally discovered Arabidopsis, their role model has remained poorly characterized. Moreover, how these transcriptional regulators work...
SUMMARY Inflorescence architecture is established during the early stages of reproductive development and depends on activity identity meristems. In Arabidopsis thaliana , floral meristems (FMs), which will develop into flowers, arise with precise spatiotemporal regulation from inflorescence meristem (IM). The outcome this process a geometrically organized structure characterized by reiterated pattern called phyllotaxis, in successive organs at specific divergence angles 137.5°. Here we show...
The REproductive Meristem (REM) gene family encodes for transcription factors belonging to the B3 DNA binding domain superfamily. In Arabidopsis thaliana, REM is composed of 45 members, preferentially expressed during flower, ovule, and seed developments. Only a few members this have been functionally characterized: VERNALIZATION1 (VRN1) and, most recently, TARGET OF FLC AND SVP1 (TFS1) regulate flowering time VERDANDI (VDD), together with VALKYRIE (VAL) that control death receptive synergid...
Abstract The ALOGs (Arabidopsis LIGHT-DEPENDENT SHORT HYPOCOTYLS 1 and Oryza G1 ) are Transcription Factors (TFs) from an evolutionarily conserved plant-specific family shown to play critical roles in meristem identity, inflorescence architecture organ boundaries diverse species mosses higher flowering plants. However, the DNA binding-specificity molecular determinants of protein-DNA interactions this were uncharacterized. Using vitro genome-wide studies, we identified motif bound by ALOG...
We investigate the effects of atomic interaction in Superradiant Rayleigh scattering from a Bose-Einstein condensate driven by far-detuned laser beam. show that for homogeneous sample has only dispersive effect, whereas inhomogeneous case it may increase decay matter-wave grating.
ABSTRACT The architecture of the rice inflorescence is an important determinant seed yield. length and number branches are among key factors determining amount spikelets, thus seeds, that will develop. Especially timing identity transition from indeterminate branch meristem to determinate spikelet regulates complexity inflorescence. In this context, ALOG gene TAWAWA1 ( TAW1 ) has been shown delay development in rice. Recently, by combining precise laser microdissection meristems with RNA-seq...
