Journal ArticleDOI

Wild emmer genome architecture and diversity elucidate wheat evolution and domestication

TL;DR: A 10.1-gigabase assembly of the 14 chromosomes of wild tetraploid wheat, as well as analyses of gene content, genome architecture, and genetic diversity reveal genomic regions bearing the signature of selection under domestication.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arabidopsis COP9 is a component of a novel signaling complex mediating light control of development

TL;DR: Genetic analysis suggested that light signals perceived by both phytochromes and a blue light receptor converge to repress the action of Arabidopsis COP9 in suppressing seedling photomorphogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The COP9 complex, a novel multisubunit nuclear regulator involved in light control of a plant developmental switch.

TL;DR: The COP9 complex may act to regulate the nuclear abundance of COP1, an established repressor of photomorphogenic development and probably represents a conserved developmental regulator in higher eukaryotes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular structure and enzymatic function of lycopene cyclase from the cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp strain PCC7942.

TL;DR: Results from DNA gel blot hybridization experiments suggest that, like two earlier genes in the pathway, the Synechococcus gene encoding lycopene cyclase is homologous to plant and algal genes encoding this enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular and biochemical characterization of herbicide-resistant mutants of cyanobacteria reveals that phytoene desaturation is a rate-limiting step in carotenoid biosynthesis.

TL;DR: It is deduce that phytoene desaturation is a rate-limiting step in carotenogenesis in cyanobacteria, and support for this conclusion is obtained from analysis of cells of an additional mutant strain, which overexpress phy toene desaturase due to a deletion mutation in the promoter region of pds.
