Journal ArticleDOI

Arabidopsis LEAFY COTYLEDON1 Is Sufficient to Induce Embryo Development in Vegetative Cells

TL;DR: The results suggest that LEC1 is an important regulator of embryo development that activates the transcription of genes required for both embryo morphogenesis and cellular differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global eQTL Mapping Reveals the Complex Genetic Architecture of Transcript-Level Variation in Arabidopsis

TL;DR: The first large-scale global eQTL study in a relatively large plant mapping population reveals that the genetic control of transcript level is highly variable and multifaceted and that this complexity may be a general characteristic of eukaryotes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Embryogenesis in Higher Plants: An Overview

TL;DR: The events that occur during embryonic development establish the organization of the plant body and prepare the embryo for both dormancy and germination, focusing primarily on dicotyledonous plants.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-density haplotyping with microarray-based expression and single feature polymorphism markers in Arabidopsis

TL;DR: Two types of genetic markers from Affymetrix GeneChip expression data were developed to generate detailed haplotypes for 148 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from Arabidopsis thaliana accessions Bayreuth and Shahdara, which provided robust markers in 187 and 968 genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global expression analysis of nucleotide binding site-leucine rich repeat-encoding and related genes in Arabidopsis.

TL;DR: Transcripts of many NBS-LRR-encoding and related genes were defined, most were present at low levels and exhibited tissue-specific expression patterns, and no obvious correlation between expression pattern, phylogenetic relationship or genomic location was studied.
