MOLECULAR NETWORK CONTROLLING THE OVULE DEVELOPMENT IN ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA
Ovules are the essential organ for plant reproduction. Megasporogenesis, megagametogenesis, fertilization and embryogenesis take place within the ovule. In the ovule both sporophytic and gametophytic generation coexist. The analyses of this developmental process provides an excellent tool to …

Investigating the role of RNA 5- methylcytosine on ribosomal and transfer RNAs in Arabidopsis thaliana
… to be genetically redundant and essential for ovule development. Three NOP2 orthologues, NOP2A, NOP2B and NOP2C were identified in the A. thaliana genome and are genetically redundant. I found nop2a nop2b mutants were lethal due to female gametophyte abortion at the two to eight-nucleate …

The molecular basis for the initiation of fruit development and parthenocarpy
Parthenocarpy, or seedless fruit development, has an agronomic importance in many horticultural crops. In most fruit, fertilization or seed set usually determines whether fruit growth is sustained. Naturally occurring parthenocarpy results from a genetic lesion that permits fruit to develop in the …

FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERIZATION OF VPS13 DURING SEXUAL AND APOMICTIC PLANT REPRODUCTION: THE MISSING GENE FOR PLANT BREEDING?
Nei prossimi anni, la produzione agroalimentare dovrà aumentare per assicurare cibo alla popolazione mondiale in continua crescita. La generazione di ibridi è uno dei metodi per incrementare la produttività, poiché questi si contraddistinguono per le migliori caratteristiche rispetto alle linee …
