Transgenic expression of sorghum DREB2 in rice improves tolerance and yield under water limitation
TL;DR: A DREB2 transcription factor gene from sorghum was identified and cloned in binary vectors, such that it was driven either by a constitutive CaMV35S promoter or a stress-inducible rd29A promoter, leading to pleiotropic effects in rice and these transgenics did not set seed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Homeobox genes in the functioning of plant meristems.
TL;DR: The maize homebox gene knotted1 (kn1) is expressed in vegetative and floral meristems and is down-regulated at the site of primordia formation, providing molecular markers for meristem initiation.
Journal Article

Prashant Swamy,Ajay N. Panchbhai,Priti Dodiya,Vaishali Naik,S. D. Panchbhai,Usha B. Zehr,Kasi Azhakanandam,Bharat Char +7 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that introducing mult iple BB resistance genes by marker -assisted selection may be a more effective strategy in breeding for BB resi stance against Indian isolates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell-cell interactions during plant development.
Sarah Hake,Bharat Char +1 more
TL;DR: Experiments suggest that the apparent lineage of the root is a consequence of the simple and regular cellular arrangements, and Positional information has also been shown to play a role in the differentiation of photosynthetic cell types in plants.

SpOct, a Gene Encoding the Major Octamer-Binding Protein in Sea Urchin Embryos: Expression Profile, Evolutionary Relationships, and DNA Binding of Expressed Protein
Bharat Char,Jeffrey R. Bell,Joseph Dovala,James A. Coffman,Michael G. Harrington,Juan Carlos Becerra,Eric H. Davidson,Frank J. Calzone,Robert E. Maxson +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a sea urchin gene, SpOct, was characterized, which encodes a 78-kDa POU-domain protein related to mammalian Oct-1 and Oct-2.
