Journal ArticleDOI

MYB transcription factors in Arabidopsis

TL;DR: The elucidation ofMYB protein function and regulation that is possible in Arabidopsis will provide the foundation for predicting the contributions of MYB proteins to the biology of plants in general.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genome of the mesopolyploid crop species Brassica rapa

Xiaowu Wang, +116 more
- 01 Oct 2011 - 
TL;DR: The annotation and analysis of the draft genome sequence of Brassica rapa accession Chiifu-401-42, a Chinese cabbage, and used Arabidopsis thaliana as an outgroup for investigating the consequences of genome triplication, such as structural and functional evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

The r2r3-myb gene family in arabidopsis thaliana

TL;DR: Systematic screens for knockout mutations in MYB genes, followed by phenotypic analyses and the dissection of mutants with interesting phenotypes, have started to unravel the functions of the 125 R2R3-MYB genes in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential regulation of closely related R2R3-MYB transcription factors controls flavonol accumulation in different parts of the Arabidopsis thaliana seedling

TL;DR: This work identified and confirmed additional target genes of the R2R3-MYB subgroup 7 factors, including the UDP-glycosyltransferases UGT91A1 and UGT84A1, and demonstrated that the accumulation of distinct and structurally identified flavonol glycosides in seedlings correlates with the expression domains of the different R2r3- MYB factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor family in plants: a genome-wide study of protein structure and functional diversity

TL;DR: Based on the current characterization of a limited number of plant bHLH proteins, it is predicted that this family of TFs has a range of different roles in plant cell and tissue development as well as plant metabolism.
