Dynamic Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Complex Regulatory Pathway Underlying Induction and Dose Effect by Different Exogenous Auxin IAA and 2,4-D During Embryogenic Redifferentiation in Cotton.

Plant somatic cells can reprogram into differentiated embryos through somatic embryogenesis (SE) on the condition of plant growth regulators (PGRs). RNA sequencing analysis was performed to investigate transcriptional profiling on cotton redifferentiated callus that was induced by different auxin types (IAA and 2,4-D), different concentrations (0, 0.025, and 0.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) enhanced the growth, yield, fiber quality and phosphorus regulation in upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.).

We previously reported on the strong symbiosis of AMF species (Rhizophagus irregularis CD1) with the cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) which is grown worldwide. In current study, it was thus investigated in farmland to determine the biological control effect of AMF on phosphorus acquisition and related gene expression regulation, plant growth and development, and a series of agronomic traits associated with yield and fiber quality in cotton.

Dynamic Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Uncharacterized Complex Regulatory Pathway Underlying Dose IBA-Induced Embryogenic Redifferentiation in Cotton.

The somatic embryogenesis (SE) process of plants is regulated by exogenous hormones. During the SE, different genes sensitively respond to hormone signals through complex regulatory networks to exhibit plant totipotency. When cultured in indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) concentration gradient medium supplemented with 0 mg dm, 0.

Meiosis, the master driver of gene duplication in higher plants?

Meiosis is a critical biological process for reproduction and genetic variation in higher plants. Gene duplication is a prominent feature of plant genomic architecture. Meiosis and gene duplication are of fundamental importance in unraveling the nature of genetics and evolution.

Draft genome sequence of isolate S9, a fungus causing frogeye leaf spot (FLS) disease of soybean.

Fungi are the causal agents of many of the world's most serious plant diseases causing disastrous consequences for large-scale agricultural production. Pathogenicity genomic basis is complex in fungi as multicellular eukaryotic pathogens. The fungus is a plant pathogen that threatens global soybean supplies.
