Journal ArticleDOI
Highly specific gene silencing by artificial microRNAs in the unicellular alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Attila Molnar,Andrew R. Bassett,Eva C. Thuenemann,Frank Schwach,Shantanu Karkare,Stephan Ossowski,Detlef Weigel,David C. Baulcombe +7 more
TL;DR: A novel artificial miRNA system based on ligation of DNA oligonucleotides that can be used for specific high-throughput gene silencing in green algae is developed.
Journal Article
Control of cell proliferation in Arabidopsis thaliana by microRNA miR396
Ramiro E. Rodriguez,Martin A. Mecchia,Juan M. Debernardi,Carla Schommer,Detlef Weigel,Javier F. Palatnik +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the role of microRNA miR396 in the coordination of cell proliferation in Arabidopsis leaves was investigated and shown to be a significant module in the regulation of plant proliferation in plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sequence and expression differences underlie functional specialization of Arabidopsis microRNAs miR159 and miR319.
Javier F. Palatnik,Heike Wollmann,Carla Schommer,Rebecca Schwab,Jérôme Boisbouvier,Ramiro E. Rodriguez,Norman Warthmann,Edwards Allen,Tobias Dezulian,Daniel H. Huson,James C. Carrington,Detlef Weigel +11 more
TL;DR: Findings reveal that functional specialization of miR159 and miR319 is achieved through both expression and sequence differences, and are complemented by identifying nucleotide positions relevant for miRNA activity with mutants recovered from a suppressor screen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural allelic variation underlying a major fitness trade-off in Arabidopsis thaliana
Marco Todesco,Sureshkumar Balasubramanian,Sureshkumar Balasubramanian,Tina T. Hu,Tina T. Hu,M. Brian Traw,Matthew W. Horton,Petra Epple,Christine Kuhns,Christine Kuhns,Sridevi Sureshkumar,Sridevi Sureshkumar,Christopher J. Schwartz,Christopher J. Schwartz,Christa Lanz,Roosa A. E. Laitinen,Yu S. Huang,Joanne Chory,Volker Lipka,Volker Lipka,Justin O. Borevitz,Jeffery L. Dangl,Joy Bergelson,Magnus Nordborg,Magnus Nordborg,Detlef Weigel +25 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that allelic diversity at a single locus, ACCELERATED CELL DEATH 6 (ACD6), underpins marked pleiotropic differences in both vegetative growth and resistance to microbial infection and herbivory among natural Arabidopsis thaliana strains.
Journal ArticleDOI
The scale of population structure in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Alexander Platt,Matthew W. Horton,Yu S. Huang,Yan Li,Alison E. Anastasio,Ni Wayan Mulyati,Jon Ågren,Oliver Bossdorf,Diane L. Byers,Kathleen Donohue,Megan Dunning,Eric B. Holub,Andrew Hudson,Valérie Le Corre,Olivier Loudet,Fabrice Roux,Norman Warthmann,Detlef Weigel,Luz Rivero,Randy Scholl,Magnus Nordborg,Magnus Nordborg,Joy Bergelson,Justin O. Borevitz +23 more
TL;DR: Examining the detailed global population structure of Arabidopsis thaliana finds a pattern for the development of isolation by distance that can establish itself shortly after an organism fills a new habitat range, and raises questions about the general applicability of many standard population genetics models.
