Journal ArticleDOI
Early infection of scutellum tissue with Agrobacterium allows high-speed transformation of rice
TL;DR: Using this new system, transgenic rice plantlets are successfully regenerated within a month of the start of the aseptic culture of mature seeds and the competency of scutellum tissue from 1-day pre-cultured seeds for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Six-rowed barley originated from a mutation in a homeodomain-leucine zipper I-class homeobox gene
Takao Komatsuda,Mohammad Pourkheirandish,Congfen He,Perumal Azhaguvel,Hiroyuki Kanamori,Dragan Perovic,Nils Stein,Andreas Graner,Thomas Wicker,Akemi Tagiri,Udda Lundqvist,Tatsuhito Fujimura,Makoto Matsuoka,Takashi Matsumoto,Masahiro Yano +14 more
TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that the six-rowed phenotype originated repeatedly, at different times and in different regions, through independent mutations of Vrs1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Function, Intracellular Localization and the Importance in Salt Tolerance of a Vacuolar Na+/H+ Antiporter from Rice
Atsunori Fukuda,Atsuko Nakamura,Akemi Tagiri,Hiroshi Tanaka,Akio Miyao,Hirohiko Hirochika,Yoshiyuki Tanaka +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that OsNHX1 on the tonoplasts plays important roles in the compartmentation of Na(+) and K(+) highly accumulated in the cytoplasm into the vacuoles, and the amount of the antiporter is one of the most important factors determining salt tolerance in rice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of a Gibberellin 2-Oxidase Gene around the Shoot Apex Is Related to Phase Transition in Rice
Tomoaki Sakamoto,Masatomo Kobayashi,Hironori Itoh,Akemi Tagiri,Toshiaki Kayano,Hiroshi Tanaka,Shuichi Iwahori,Makoto Matsuoka +7 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that OsGA2ox1 encodes a GA 2-oxidase, which is functional not only in vitro but also in vivo, and suggests that reduction in its expression may contribute to the early development of the inflorescence meristem.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Wheat Homolog of MOTHER OF FT AND TFL1 Acts in the Regulation of Germination
Shingo Nakamura,Fumitaka Abe,Hiroyuki Kawahigashi,Kou Nakazono,Akemi Tagiri,Takashi Matsumoto,Shigeko Utsugi,Taiichi Ogawa,Hirokazu Handa,Hiroki Ishida,Masahiko Mori,Kanako Kawaura,Yasunari Ogihara,Hideho Miura +13 more
TL;DR: In this article, a wheat microarray was used to analyze gene expression in embryos from mature seeds grown at lower and higher temperatures, and it was found that a wheat homolog of MOTHER OF FT and TFL1 (MFT) was upregulated after physiological maturity.
