Allelic variants of OsSUB1A cause differential expression of transcription fa...
Background Flooding during seasonal monsoons affects millions of hectares of rice-cultivated areas across Asia. Submerged rice plants die within a week due to lack of oxygen,... -
The emergent rhizosphere: imaging the development of the porous architecture ...
The rhizosphere is the zone of soil influenced by a plant root and is critical for plant health and nutrient acquisition. All below ground resources must pass through this... -
Spatiotemporal expression patterns of wheat amino acid transporters reveal th...
Amino acid transporters have roles in amino acid uptake from soil, long-distance transport, remobilization from vegetative tissues and accumulation in grain. Critically, the... -
The early inflorescence of Arabidopsis thaliana demonstrates positional effec...
Most flowering plants, including the genetic model Arabidopsis thaliana, produce multiple flowers in sequence from a reproductive shoot apex to form a flower spike... -
Exploring traditional aus-type rice for metabolites conferring drought tolerance
Background Traditional varieties and landraces belonging to the aus-type group of rice (Oryza sativa L.) are known to be highly tolerant to environmental stresses, such as... -
Response of cell-wall composition and RNA-seq transcriptome to methyl-jasmona...
Jasmonic acid (JA) signalling is required for many stress responses in plants, inducing large changes in the transcriptome, including up-regulation of transcripts associated... -
Determination of the prebiotic activity of wheat arabinogalactan peptide (AGP...
Purpose To test the prebiotic activity of wheat arabinogalactan-peptide (AGP), which is a soluble dietary fibre composed of arabinogalactan polysaccharide linked to a 15-residue... -
Phosphopantetheinyl transferase (Ppt)-mediated biosynthesis of lysine, but no...
Zymoseptoria tritici is the causal agent of Septoria tritici blotch (STB) disease of wheat. Z. tritici is an apoplastic fungal pathogen, which does not penetrate plant cells at... -
Diverging importance of drought stress for maize and winter wheat in Europe
Understanding the drivers of yield levels under climate change is required to support adaptation planning and respond to changing production risks. This study uses an ensemble...
