Barley TAPETAL DEVELOPMENT and FUNCTION1 (HvTDF1) gene reveals conserved and unique roles in controlling anther tapetum development in dicot and monocot plants (2023)
Journal Article

The anther tapetum helps control microspore release and essential components for pollen wall formation. TAPETAL DEVELOPMENT and FUNCTION1 (TDF1) is an essential R2R3 MYB tapetum transcription factor in Arabidopsis thaliana; however, little is known a...

Sporophytic control of pollen meiotic progression is mediated by tapetum expression of ABORTED MICROSPORES (2022)
Journal Article

Pollen development is dependent on the tapetum, a sporophytic anther cell layer surrounding the microspores that functions in pollen wall formation but is also essential for meiosis-associated development. There is clear evidence of crosstalk and co-... Read More about Sporophytic control of pollen meiotic progression is mediated by tapetum expression of ABORTED MICROSPORES.

Meiosis and beyond – understanding the mechanistic and evolutionary processes shaping the germline genome (2021)
Journal Article

The separation of germ cell populations from the soma is part of the evolutionary transition to multicellularity. Only genetic information present in the germ cells will be inherited by future generations, and any molecular processes affecting the ge...

Knockdown of Arabidopsis ROOT UVB SENSITIVE4 Disrupts Anther Dehiscence by Suppressing Secondary Thickening in the Endothecium (2019)
Journal Article

ROOT UV-B SENSITIVE4 (RUS4) encodes a protein with no known function that contains a conserved Domain of Unknown Function 647 (DUF647). The DUF647-containing proteins RUS1 and RUS2 have previously been associated with root UV-B-sensing pathway that p...

Biphasic regulation of the transcription factor ABORTED MICROSPORES (AMS) is essential for tapetum and pollen development in Arabidopsis (2016)
Journal Article

Viable pollen is essential for plant reproduction and crop yield. Its production requires coordinated expression at specific stages during anther development, involving early meiosis-associated events and late pollen wall formation. The ABORTED MICRO...

The effect of adenosine monophosphate deaminase overexpression on the accumulation of umami-related metabolites in tomatoes (2016)
Journal Article

Taste is perceived as one of a combination of five sensations, sweet, sour, bitter, salty, and umami. The umami taste is best known as a savoury sensation and plays a central role in food flavour, palatability, and eating satisfaction. Umami flavour...
