Summary Despite their key phylogenetic position and unique biology, hornworts have been widely overlooked. Until recently there was no hornwort model species amenable to systematic experimental investigation. Anthoceros agrestis has proposed as the study biology. We developed an Agrobacterium ‐mediated method for stable transformation of A. , a which genetic manipulation technique not yet available. High efficiency achieved by using thallus tissue grown under low light conditions. generated...
Floral guides are patterned cues that direct the pollinator to plant reproductive organs. The spatial distribution of showy visual and olfactory traits allows efficient plant-pollinator interactions. Data on mechanisms underlying floral volatile patterns or their interactions with pollinators lacking. Here we characterize emission volatiles from corolla model Petunia × hybrida reveal ability honeybees distinguish these patterns. Along adaxial epidermis, in correlation cell density, petal...
Floral pigmentation is of major importance to the ornamental industry, which constantly searching for cultivars with novel colors. Goldenrod (Solidago canadensis) has monochromatic yellow carotenoid-containing flowers that cannot be modified using classical breeding approaches due a limited gene pool. To generate Solidago colors through metabolic engineering, we first developed procedure its regeneration and transformation. Applicability different cytokinins adventitious was examined in...
Abstract Mutualistic plant-microbe symbiotic interactions are thought to have evolved from a loose association between host plants and microbes when nutrients limited. Therefore, the molecular network enabling intimate mutualistic symbioses may nutrient starvation response shared by all land plants. While link status interaction is well-established, it remains poorly understood in some systems. This especially true for associations cyanobacteria. To test conservation of across as well...
Abstract We have developed a simple Agrobacterium-mediated method for the stable transformation of hornwort Anthoceros agrestis , fifth bryophyte species which genetic manipulation technique becomes available. High efficiency was achieved by using thallus tissue grown under low-light conditions. generated total 216 transgenic A. lines expressing β-Glucuronidase (GUS), cyan, green, and yellow fluorescent proteins control CaMV 35S promoter several endogenous promoters. Nuclear plasma membrane...
