Auxin Metabolite Profiling in Isolated and Intact Plant Nuclei.

The plant nucleus plays an irreplaceable role in cellular control and regulation by auxin (indole-3-acetic acid, IAA) mainly because canonical auxin signaling takes place here. Auxin can enter the nucleus from either the endoplasmic reticulum or cytosol. Therefore, new information about the auxin metabolome (auxinome) in the nucleus can illuminate our understanding of subcellular auxin homeostasis.

In-Depth Sequence Analysis of Bread Wheat Genes.

The () gene encodes a MADS-box transcription factor and plays an important role in the cold-induced transition from the vegetative to reproductive stage. Allelic variability of homoeologs has been associated with large differences in flowering time. The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic variability of homoeologs (-, - and -).
