A DEMETER-like DNA demethylase protein governs tomato fruit ripening (2015)
Journal Article

In plants, genomic DNA methylation which contributes to development and stress responses can be actively removed by DEMETER-like DNA demethylases (DML). Indeed, in Arabidopsis DMLs are important for maternal imprinting and endosperm demethylation, bu... Read More about A DEMETER-like DNA demethylase protein governs tomato fruit ripening.

Yeast m6A Methylated mRNAs Are Enriched on Translating Ribosomes during Meiosis, and under Rapamycin Treatment (2015)
Journal Article

Interest in mRNA methylation has exploded in recent years. The sudden interest in a 40 year old discovery was due in part to the finding of FTO’s (Fat Mass Obesity) N6-methyladenosine (m6 A) deaminase activity, thus suggesting a link between obesity-...

The circadian clock rephases during lateral root organ initiation in Arabidopsis thaliana (2015)
Journal Article

The endogenous circadian clock enables organisms to adapt their growth and development to environmental changes. Here we describe how the circadian clock is employed to coordinate responses to the key signal auxin during lateral root (LR) emergence....

The Physiological Basis of the Genetic Progress in Yield Potential of CIMMYT Spring Wheat Cultivars from 1966 to 2009 (2015)
Journal Article

© Crop Science Society of America. Our objective was to investigate the physiological basis of genetic progress in grain yield in CIMMYT spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars developed from 1966 to 2009 in irrigated, high-potential conditions...

Effects of damping-off caused by Rhizoctonia solani anastomosis group 2-1 on roots of wheat and oil seed rape quantified using X-ray Computed Tomography and real-time PCR (2015)
Journal Article

Rhizoctonia solani is a plant pathogenic fungus that causes significant establishment and yield losses to several important food crops globally. This is the first application of high resolution X-ray micro Computed Tomography (X-ray μCT) and real-tim...

Dietary calcium and zinc deficiency risks are decreasing but remain prevalent (2015)
Journal Article

Globally, more than 800 million people are undernourished while >2 billion people have one or more chronic micronutrient deficiencies (MNDs). More than 6% of global mortality and morbidity burdens are associated with undernourishment and MNDs. Here w...

Oxygen Sensing Coordinates Photomorphogenesis to Facilitate Seedling Survival (2015)
Journal Article

Successful emergence from the soil is essential for plant establishment in natural and farmed systems. It has been assumed that the absence of light in the soil is the preeminent signal perceived during early seedling development, leading to a distin...

Group VII ethylene response factors coordinate oxygen and nitric oxide signal transduction and stress responses in plants (2015)
Journal Article

The group VII ethylene response factors (ERFVIIs) are plant-specific transcription factors that have emerged as important regulators of abiotic and biotic stress responses, in particular, low-oxygen stress. A defining feature of ERFVIIs is their cons... Read More about Group VII ethylene response factors coordinate oxygen and nitric oxide signal transduction and stress responses in plants.

Sharing a host plant, wheat (Triticum aestivum), increases the fitness of Fusarium graminearum and Fusarium head blight (FHB) severity but reduces the fitness of grain aphids (Sitobion avenae) (2015)
Journal Article

Gluten quality of bread wheat is associated with activity of RabD GTPases (2015)
Journal Article

In the developing endosperm of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum), seed storage proteins are produced on the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and transported to protein bodies, specialized vacuoles for the storage of protein. The functionally important... Read More about Gluten quality of bread wheat is associated with activity of RabD GTPases.
