The use of the broad-host-range plasmid, pTF-FC2, in Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated plant transformation
… This transfer system has revolutionized plant molecular biology to the extent that the introduction of foreign genes into plant genomes is now a basic technique. Apart from the finding that a defined segment (T-DNA) of the A. tumefaciens Ti plasmid can be transferred to plant DNA, the …

Identification of molecular markers and association mapping of selected loci associated with agronomic traits in rice
… Analysis as a procedure was evaluated to select molecular markers associated with complex traits in US rice germplasm. Markers for percent head rice, percent total rice, and grain yield were identified with high levels of correct classification that mapped within or near traditional Quantitative …

Physiological and cellular characterization of a plant natriuretic peptide
Plants in the field are exposed to multiple stresses and their response to these various stresses determines their capacity to survive. Plants can use multiple signaling pathways and signals to mediate their response; for example, at least four different signal pathways have been identified for …

Characterising GIGANTEA interactors: the BELL-LIKE HOMEODOMAIN 3 and BELL-LIKE HOMEODOMAIN 10 proteins
… fundamental in coordinating floral induction in plants to favourable conditions. An important flowering time cue is day length and it is proposed that light signals are perceived and measured by an interaction between photoreceptors and an internal pacemaker, the circadian clock. The control of …

Petal cell shape and flower-pollinator interaction in Nicotiana
… shown to affect pollination success in flowering plants. Conical epidermal cells may increase grip for insect pollinators and enhance flower colouration compared to non-conical cells. Nicotiana (Solanaceae) presents a diverse range of petal cell shapes. Interestingly, sister species in at least …
