Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of expression profile of selected genes expressed during auxin-induced somatic embryogenesis in leaf base system of wheat (Triticum aestivum) and their possible interactions.
TL;DR: Analysis of data of select genes suggests that the induction phase of somatic embryogenesis is accompanied by the expression of genes that may also be involved in zygotic embryogenesis, and the developmental reprogramming process may in fact involve multiple cellular pathways and unfolding of as yet unknown molecular events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cryptochrome 1 from Brassica napus Is Up-Regulated by Blue Light and Controls Hypocotyl/Stem Growth and Anthocyanin Accumulation
TL;DR: Functional evidence for a role of blue light up-regulated cry1 in controlling photomorphogenesis in Brassica species is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of three somatic embryogenesis receptor kinase genes from wheat, Triticum aestivum
TL;DR: It is shown here that somatic embryogenesis in Triticum aestivum is associated with high SERK expression which could be enhanced with auxin application and is calcium dependent, and TaSERK transcripts could also be enhanced by epibrassinolide and abscisic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative genomic analysis of nine Sphingobium strains: insights into their evolution and hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) degradation pathways
Helianthous Verma,Roshan Kumar,Phoebe Oldach,Naseer Sangwan,Jitendra P. Khurana,Jack A. Gilbert,Jack A. Gilbert,Rup Lal +7 more
TL;DR: The bacteria isolated from HCH dumpsites provide a natural testing ground to study variations in the lin system and their effects on degradation efficacy, and it is suggested that HDIPO4, IP26 and B90A would be appropriate candidates for inclusion in an HCH bioremediation consortium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overexpression of putative topoisomerase 6 genes from rice confers stress tolerance in transgenic Arabidopsis plants
TL;DR: The isolation of full‐length cDNAs encoding putative TOP6 subunits A and B from rice preserves all the structural domains conserved among archaebacterial TOP6 homologs and eukaryotic meiotic recombination factor SPO11 and demonstrates that TOP6 genes play a crucial role in stress adaptation of plants by altering gene expression.
