TL;DR: Based on gene expression in the nitrogen-fixing nonlegume Parasponia andersonii and the legume Medicago truncatula, it is found that nodules in these different lineages may share a single origin, raising the possibility that nodulation originated only once and was subsequently lost in many descendant lineages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome-Wide Mapping of Structural Variations Reveals a Copy Number Variant That Determines Reproductive Morphology in Cucumber
Zhonghua Zhang,Linyong Mao,Huiming Chen,Fengjiao Bu,Guangcun Li,Jinjing Sun,Shuai Li,Honghe Sun,Chen Jiao,Rachel Blakely,Junsong Pan,Run Cai,Ruibang Luo,Yves Van de Peer,Yves Van de Peer,Evert Jacobsen,Zhangjun Fei,Zhangjun Fei,Sanwen Huang +18 more
TL;DR: A nucleotide-resolution SV map of cucumber that comprises 26,788 SVs based on deep resequencing of 115 diverse accessions is reported, providing a snapshot of structural variations in plants and will serve as an important resource for exploring genes underlying key traits and for facilitating practical breeding in cucumber.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of soil biota alters soil feedback effects on plant growth and defense chemistry.
Minggang Wang,Minggang Wang,Weibin Ruan,Olga Kostenko,Sabrina Carvalho,S. Emilia Hannula,Patrick P.J. Mulder,Fengjiao Bu,Wim H. van der Putten,T. Martijn Bezemer +9 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that size‐selective removal of soil biota altered PSFs, but that these PSFs were also influenced by herbivory during the conditioning phase, and correlated with leaf hyperspectral reflectance.
Journal ArticleDOI
CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Mutagenesis of Four Putative Symbiosis Genes of the Tropical Tree Parasponia andersonii Reveals Novel Phenotypes.
Arjan van Zeijl,Titis A. K. Wardhani,Maryam Seifi Kalhor,Luuk Rutten,Fengjiao Bu,Marijke Hartog,Sidney Linders,Elena Fedorova,Ton Bisseling,Wouter Kohlen,René Geurts +10 more
TL;DR: A fast and efficient protocol for Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation and CRISPR/Cas9 mutagenesis of Parasponia andersonii is presented and indicates a conserved role for these GRAS-type transcriptional regulators in rhizobium symbiosis, illustrating the value ofParasponia trees as a research model for reverse genetic studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mutant analysis in the nonlegume Parasponia andersonii identifies NIN and NF-YA1 transcription factors as a core genetic network in nitrogen-fixing nodule symbioses
Fengjiao Bu,Luuk Rutten,Yuda Purwana Roswanjaya,Olga Kulikova,Marta Rodriguez-Franco,Thomas Ott,Ton Bisseling,Arjan van Zeijl,René Geurts +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that nodule organogenesis and early symbiotic expression of PanNF‐YA1 are PanNIN‐dependent and that PanNF-YA1 is specifically required for intracellular rhizobium infection, demonstrating that NIN and NF‐YA 1 have conserved symbiotic functions.
