Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Aspects of Seed Dormancy
TL;DR: The net result is a slightly heterogeneous response, thereby providing more temporal options for successful germination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Targeted base editing in rice and tomato using a CRISPR-Cas9 cytidine deaminase fusion
Zenpei Shimatani,Sachiko Kashojiya,Mariko Takayama,Rie Terada,Takayuki Arazoe,Hisaki Ishii,Hiroshi Teramura,Tsuyoshi Yamamoto,Hiroki Komatsu,Kenji Miura,Hiroshi Ezura,Keiji Nishida,Tohru Ariizumi,Akihiko Kondo +13 more
TL;DR: A fusion of CRISPR-Cas9 and activation-induced cytidine deaminase (Target-AID) for point mutagenesis at genomic regions specified by single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) in two crop plants demonstrates the feasibility of base editing for crop improvement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic Regulation of Sporopollenin Synthesis and Pollen Exine Development
Tohru Ariizumi,Kinya Toriyama +1 more
TL;DR: The currently accepted understanding of the molecular regulation of sporopollenin biosynthesis is reviewed and unanswered questions regarding the requirements underpinning proper exine pattern formation are examined, as based on genetic evidence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disruption of the novel plant protein NEF1 affects lipid accumulation in the plastids of the tapetum and exine formation of pollen, resulting in male sterility in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Tohru Ariizumi,Katsunori Hatakeyama,Kokichi Hinata,Rie Inatsugi,Ikuo Nishida,Shusei Sato,Tomohiko Kato,Satoshi Tabata,Kinya Toriyama +8 more
TL;DR: Motif analysis revealed that NEF1 contains prokaryotic membrane lipoprotein lipid attachment sites that are involved in maintaining cell envelope integrity, and it is predicted that the Nef1 encodes a membrane protein that maintains the envelope integrity in the plastids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gibberellin Signaling: A Theme and Variations on DELLA Repression
TL;DR: GAs are a family of tetracyclic diterpenoid plant hormones that stimulate plant growth and developmental transitions as discussed by the authors, and they regulate developmental responses to diverse environmental stimuli.
