Oxygen Sensing Coordinates Photomorphogenesis to Facilitate Seedling Survival (2015)
Journal Article
Abbas, M., S, B., Rooney, D. J., Gibbs, D. J., Vicente Conde, J., Correia C, S., …MJ, H. (2015). Oxygen Sensing Coordinates Photomorphogenesis to Facilitate Seedling Survival. Current Biology, 25(11), 1483-1488. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2015.03.060

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
Gibbs, D. J., Vincente Conde, J., Berckhan, S., Prasad, G., Mendiondo, G. M., & Holdsworth, M. J. (2015). Group VII ethylene response factors coordinate oxygen and nitric oxide signal transduction and stress responses in plants. Plant Physiology, 169(1), https://doi.org/10.1104/pp.15.00338

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.

Multi-omics analysis identifies genes mediating the extension of cell walls in the Arabidopsis thaliana root elongation zone (2015)
Journal Article
Wilson, M. H., Holman, T. J., Sørensen, I., Cancho-Sanchez, E., Wells, D. M., Swarup, R., …Hodgman, T. C. (2015). Multi-omics analysis identifies genes mediating the extension of cell walls in the Arabidopsis thaliana root elongation zone. Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 3(FEB), Article 10. https://doi.org/10.3389/fcell.2015.00010

Plant cell wall composition is important for regulating growth rates, especially in roots. However, neither analyses of cell wall composition nor transcriptomes on their own can comprehensively reveal which genes and processes are mediating growth an...

Enhanced waterlogging tolerance in barley by manipulation of expression of the N-end rule pathway E3 ligase PROTEOLYSIS6 (2015)
Journal Article
Mendiondo, G. M., Gibbs, D. J., Szurman-Zubrzycka, M., Korn, A., Marquez, J., Szarejko, I., …Holdsworth, M. J. (2016). Enhanced waterlogging tolerance in barley by manipulation of expression of the N-end rule pathway E3 ligase PROTEOLYSIS6. Plant Biotechnology Journal, 14(1), 40-50. https://doi.org/10.1111/pbi.12334

© 2016 Society for Experimental Biology, Association of Applied Biologists and John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Increased tolerance of crops to low oxygen (hypoxia) during flooding is a key target for food security. In Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh., the N...

Promotion of testa rupture during garden cress germination involves seed compartment-specific expression and activity of pectin methylesterases (2015)
Journal Article
Scheler, C., Weitbrecht, K., Pearce, S. P., Hampstead, A., Büttner-Mainik, A., Lee, K. J., …Leubner-Metzger, G. (2015). Promotion of testa rupture during garden cress germination involves seed compartment-specific expression and activity of pectin methylesterases. Plant Physiology, 167(1),

Pectin methylesterase (PME) controls the methylesterification status of pectins and thereby determines the biophysical properties of plant cell walls, which are important for tissue growth and weakening processes. We demonstrate here that tissue-spec... Read More about Promotion of testa rupture during garden cress germination involves seed compartment-specific expression and activity of pectin methylesterases.
