The CBL-CIPK network is involved in the physiological crosstalk between plant growth and stress adaptation.
Published in Plant, cell & environment
Plants have evolved to deal with different stresses during plant growth, relying on complex interactions or crosstalk between multiple signalling pathways in plant cells. In this sophisticated regulatory network, Ca2+ transients in the cytosol ([Ca2+ ]cyt ) act as major physiological signals to initiate appropriate responses. The CALCINEURIN B-LIKE...
Vesicle trafficking in rice: too little is known
Published in Frontiers in Plant Science
The vesicle trafficking apparatus is a fundamental machinery to maintain the homeostasis of membrane-enclosed organelles in eukaryotic cells. Thus, it is broadly conserved in eukaryotes including plants. Intensive studies in the model organisms have produced a comprehensive picture of vesicle trafficking in yeast and human. However, with respect to...

Novel exotic alleles of EARLY FLOWERING 3 determine plant development in barley.

Published in Journal of experimental botany
EARLY FLOWERING 3 (ELF3) is an important regulator of various physiological and developmental processes and hence may serve to improve plant adaptation which will be essential for future plant breeding. To expand the limited knowledge on barley ELF3 in determining agronomic traits, we conducted field studies with heterogeneous inbred families (HIFs...
Genetic and physiological determinants of lettuce partial resistance to Impatiens necrotic spot virus
Published in Frontiers in Plant Science
Introduction Impatiens necrotic spot virus (INSV) is a major pathogen currently threatening lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) production in the coastal areas of California. The virus is transmitted by the western flower thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis Pergande). Methods We have tested a diversity panel of almost 500 lettuce accessions for disease inci...
Molecular GA pathways as conserved integrators for adaptive responses
Gibberellins (GAs), which form a large family of phytohormones involved in almost every step of plant life and development, were discovered almost a century ago. The molecular characterization of GA metabolism and signalling mechanisms now provides explanations for the multiple crosstalk and the integration of external signals required for plants t...
Plant Small RNAs: Their Biogenesis, Regulatory Roles, and Functions
Plant cells accumulate small RNA molecules that regulate plant development, genome stability, and environmental responses. These small RNAs fall into three major classes based on their function and mechanisms of biogenesis—microRNAs, heterochromatic small interfering RNAs, and secondary small interfering RNAs—plus several other less well-characteri...
The Shoot Apical Meristem: A Tree’s Best Bud
Published in Frontiers for Young Minds
Every spring, something seemingly miraculous happens in the woods in certain parts of the world—thousands of leaves burst from buds on bare tree branches, transforming the landscape from the browns and grays of winter to the bright greens of spring and summer. Although this process is most obvious in regions with drastic seasonal changes, seed plan...
