Journal ArticleDOI
Transgenic barley grain overexpressing thioredoxin shows evidence that the starchy endosperm communicates with the embryo and the aleurone
Joshua H. Wong,Yong-Bum Kim,Pei-Hsien Ren,Nick Cai,Myeong-Je Cho,Peter Hedden,Peggy G. Lemaux,Bob B. Buchanan +7 more
TL;DR: The results provide evidence that thioredoxin h of the starchy endosperm communicates with adjoining tissues, thereby regulating their activities, notably by accelerating germination of the embryo and the appearance of α-amylase released by the aleurone.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Level of Expression of Thioredoxin is Linked to Fundamental Properties and Applications of Wheat Seeds
Yongchun Li,Jiangping Ren,Myeong-Je Cho,Su-Mei Zhou,Yong-Bum Kim,Hongxiang Guo,Joshua H. Wong,Hongbin Niu,H. K. Kim,Susumu Morigasaki,Peggy G. Lemaux,Oscar L. Frick,Jun Yin,Bob B. Buchanan +13 more
TL;DR: The results are further evidence that the level of Trx h in cereal endosperm determines fundamental properties as well as potential applications of the seed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thioredoxin h overexpressed in barley seeds enhances selenite resistance and uptake during germination and early seedling development
Yong-Bum Kim,Carlos Garbisu,Ingrid J. Pickering,Ingrid J. Pickering,Roger C. Prince,Graham N. George,Graham N. George,Myeong-Je Cho,Joshua H. Wong,Bob B. Buchanan +9 more
TL;DR: The results provide evidence that, in addition to the accelerated germination observed previously in water, barley grain overexpressing thioredoxin h are resistant to the inhibitory effects of selenite, and raise the possibility that plants overexpressed in polluted environments could find application in the remediation of polluted environments.
