High-Resolution Temporal Profiling of Transcripts during Arabidopsis Leaf Senescence Reveals a Distinct Chronology of Processes and Regulation
Emily Breeze,Elizabeth Harrison,Stuart McHattie,Linda Karen Hughes,Richard Hickman,Claire Hill,Steven J. Kiddle,Youn-Sung Kim,Christopher A. Penfold,Dafyd J. Jenkins,Cunjin Zhang,Karl Morris,Carol E. Jenner,Stephen D. Jackson,Brian Thomas,Alex Tabrett,Roxane Legaie,Jonathan D. Moore,David L. Wild,Sascha Ott,David A. Rand,Jim Beynon,Katherine J. Denby,Andrew Mead,Vicky Buchanan-Wollaston +24 more
TL;DR: Analysis of motif enrichment, as well as comparison of transcription factor families showing altered expression over the time course, identify clear groups of TFs active at different stages of leaf development and senescence, which will underpin the development of network models to elucidate the process of Senescence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Onions—A global benefit to health
TL;DR: The agronomy of the onion crop, the biochemistry of the health compounds and report on recent clinical data obtained using extracts from this species are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early signaling components in ultraviolet-B responses: distinct roles for different reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide.
TL;DR: It is suggested that Ultraviolet‐B exposure leads to the generation of ROS, from multiple sources, and NO, through increased NOS activity, giving rise to parallel signaling pathways mediating responses of specific genes to UV‐B radiation.

Interactions between selenium and sulphur nutrition in Arabidopsis thaliana
Philip J. White,Helen C. Bowen,P. Parmaguru,M. Fritz,William P. Spracklen,R. E. Spiby,Mark C. Meacham,Andrew Mead,M. Harriman,Laurence Trueman,B. M. Smith,Brian Thomas,Martin R. Broadley +12 more
TL;DR: The data suggest (i) that Se and S enter Arabidopsis through multiple transport pathways with contrasting sulphate/selenate selectivities, whose activities vary between plants of contrasting nutritional status, (ii) that rhizosphere sulphate inhibits selenate uptake, (iii) thatrhizosphere selenates promotes sulphate uptake and (iv) thatSe toxicity occurs because Se andS compete for a biochemical process, such as assimilation into amino acids of essential proteins.
