Isolation and Characterization of a myo-inositol-1-phosphate Synthase Gene from Yellow Passion Fruit (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa) Expressed During Seed Development and Environmental Stress

TLDR
Experimental data suggest that PeMIPS1 transcription plays an important role in the establishment of developmental programmes and during the response of plants to environmental changes, suggesting that it is important for environmental stress response.

In vivo trans-specific gene silencing in fungal cells by in planta expression of a double-stranded RNA

TL;DR: This study demonstrates for the first time the in vivo interference phenomenon in the pathogenic fungus Fusarium verticillioides, in which expression of an individual fungal transgene was specifically abolished by inoculating mycelial cells in transgenic tobacco plants engineered to express siRNAs from a dsRNA corresponding to the particular transgenes.
Journal ArticleDOI

A myo-inositol-1-phosphate synthase gene, IbMIPS1, enhances salt and drought tolerance and stem nematode resistance in transgenic sweet potato.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that the expression of the sweet potato IbMIPS1 gene was induced by NaCl, polyethylene glycol (PEG), abscisic acid (ABA), and stem nematodes.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comparative proteomic analysis of tomato leaves in response to waterlogging stress.

TL;DR: A number of novel proteins were differentially expressed or appeared only in the PEG-fractionated protein samples, indicating that PEG fractionation system can be used as a versatile protein fractionation technique in proteomic analysis to identify novel or low-abundant proteins from all kinds of plant species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrogen peroxide and nitric oxide mediated cold- and dehydration-induced myo-inositol phosphate synthase that confers multiple resistances to abiotic stresses.

TL;DR: Overexpression of MfMIPS1 in tobacco increased the MIPS activity and levels of myo-inositol, galactinol and raffinose, resulting in enhanced resistance to chilling, drought and salt stresses in transgenic tobacco plants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative analysis of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) between drought-tolerant and -susceptible genotypes of chickpea under terminal drought stress

TL;DR: This study compares not only genes that are up- and down-regulated in a drought-tolerant genotype under terminal drought stress and a drought susceptible genotype but also between the bulks of the selected RILs exhibiting extreme phenotypes to provide a better insight into the selection of candidate genes associated with drought tolerance.

Screening of Wound-Responsive Genes Identifies an Immediate-Early Expressed Gene Encoding a Highly Charged Protein in Mechanically Wounded Tobacco Plants

TL;DR: The cDNA encodes a polypeptide that is rich in lysine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid, which constitute up to 70% of total amino acids, and was therefore designated as KED, suggesting that KED may function through electrostatic interactions with cellular components.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression of 1L-myoinositol-1-phosphate synthase in organelles.

TL;DR: Findings that suggest the expression of 1l-myoinositol-1-phosphate synthase is also expressed in membrane-bound organelles are reported, and reverse transcriptase PCR experiments suggest that these putative targeting peptides are expressed in bean roots and leaves.
Journal ArticleDOI

Salinity‐induced enhancement of L‐myo‐inositol 1‐phosphate synthase in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

TL;DR: The salt-enhanced activities of inositol synthase(s) in the highly salt-tolerant varieties studied were found to be comparable to that observed in Porteresia coarctata, a halophytic wild rice species, which suggest a role of the inositl pathway in osmoregulation.
