Pyoverdines are siderophores synthesized by fluorescent Pseudomonas spp. Under iron-limiting conditions, these high-affinity ferric iron chelators excreted bacteria in the soil to acquire iron. produced beneficial ameliorate plant growth. Here, we investigate physiological incidence and mode of action pyoverdine from fluorescens C7R12 on Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) plants grown under iron-sufficient or iron-deficient conditions. Pyoverdine was provided medium its iron-free structure...
Apical dominance occurs when the growing shoot tip inhibits outgrowth of axillary buds. Apically-derived auxin in nodal stem indirectly bud via cytokinins and strigolactones. Recently, sugar deprivation was found to contribute this phenomenon. Using rose pea, we investigated whether availability interacts with control, role strigolactones, vitro planta. We show that sucrose antagonises auxin's effect on outgrowth, a dose-dependent coupled manner. Sucrose also suppresses strigolactone...
Polycomb repressive complexes (PRCs) have been traditionally associated with the regulation of developmental processes in various organisms, including higher plants. However, similar to other epigenetic regulators, there is accumulating evidence for their role stress and immune-related pathways. In current study we show that PRC1 protein LHP1 required repression MYC2 branch jasmonic acid (JA)/ethylene (ET) pathway immunity. Loss induces reduction H3K27me3 levels gene bodies ANAC019 ANAC055,...
Abstract The modification of histones by acetyl groups has a key role in the regulation chromatin structure and transcription.

Here, we explored mechanism through which...
Trees are long-lived organisms that continuously adapt to their environments, a process in which epigenetic mechanisms likely play key role. Via downregulation of the chromatin remodeler DECREASED IN DNA METHYLATION 1 (DDM1) poplar (Populus tremula × Populus alba) RNAi lines, we examined how methylation coordinates genomic and physiological responses moderate water deficit. We compared growth drought response two RNAi-ddm1 lines wild-type (WT) trees under well-watered deficit/rewatering...
In the model plant Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), endogenous and environmental signals acting on shoot apical meristem cause acquisition of inflorescence fate. This results in changed patterns aerial development seen as transition from making leaves to production flowers separated by elongated internodes. Two related BEL1-like homeobox genes, PENNYWISE (PNY) POUND-FOOLISH (PNF), fulfill this transition. Loss function these genes impairs stem cell maintenance blocks internode elongation...
Glutamine synthetase (GS) is central for ammonium assimilation and consists of cytosolic (GS1) chloroplastic (GS2) isoenzymes. During plant ageing, GS2 protein decreases due to chloroplast degradation, GS1 activity increases support glutamine biosynthesis N remobilization from senescing leaves. The role the different Arabidopsis isoforms in nitrogen was examined using 15N tracing experiments.

Despite a general view that asparagine synthetase generates as an amino acid for long-distance transport of nitrogen to sink organs, its role in metabolic pathways floral organs during seed filling has remained undefined. We demonstrate the onset pollination Arabidopsis induces selected genes metabolism, namely ASN1 (At3g47340), GLN2 (At5g35630), GLU1 (At5g04140), AapAT2 (At5g19950), ASPGA1 (At5g08100) and ASPGB1 (At3g16150), particularly at ovule stage (stage 0), accompanied by enhanced...
Strigolactones (SLs) are well known for their role in repressing shoot branching. In pea, increased transcript levels of SL biosynthesis genes observed stems highly branched deficient (ramosus1 (rms1) and rms5) response (rms3 rms4) mutants indicative negative feedback control. contrast, the rms2 mutant has reduced genes. Grafting studies hormone quantification led to a model where RMS2 mediates shoot-to-root signal that regulates both gene xylem sap cytokinin exported from roots. Here we...
Summary DWARF53 (D53) in rice ( Oryza sativa ) and its homologs Arabidopsis thaliana ), SUPPRESSOR OF MAX2‐LIKE 6 (SMXL6), SMXL7 SMXL8, are well established negative regulators of strigolactone (SL) signalling shoot branching regulation. Little is known pea Pisum sativum whether D53 related SMXLs specific to SL pathways. Here, we identify two allelic mutants, dormant3 dor3 demonstrate through gene mapping sequencing that DOR3 corresponds a homolog SMXL6/SMXL7, designated PsSMXL7. Phenotype...
Guanosine pentaphosphate and tetraphosphate (together referred to as ppGpp) are hyperphosphorylated nucleotides found in bacteria the chloroplasts of plants algae. In algae artificial ppGpp accumulation can inhibit chloroplast gene expression, influence photosynthesis, nutrient remobilization, growth, immunity. However, it is so far unknown whether required for abiotic stress acclimation plants. Here, we demonstrate that biosynthesis necessary nitrogen starvation
Chloroplasts can act as key players in the perception and acclimatization of plants to incoming environmental signals. A growing body evidence indicates that chloroplasts play a critical role plant immunity. Chloroplast function be regulated by nucleotides guanosine tetraphosphate pentaphosphate [(p)ppGpp]. In plants, (p)ppGpp levels increase response abiotic stress hormones which are involved biotic signalling. this study, we analysed transcriptome Arabidopsis over-accumulate (p)ppGpp,...
Bud outgrowth is a key process in the elaboration of yield and visual quality rose crops. Although light intensity well known to affect bud outgrowth, little on mechanisms involved this regulation. The objective work was test if control pattern along stem by photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) mediated sugars, cytokinins and/or abscisic acid intact plants. Rooted cuttings Rosa hybrida 'Radrazz' were grown growth chambers under high PPFD (520 µmol.m−2.s−1) until floral visible stage....
