The paralogous genes () are important for root and panicle development in rice ( L.). However, the specific role of paralogous genes is still not clear. To understand the specific roles of paralogs in rice, we generated triple and quadruple mutants by crossing the and double mutants which we previously created. Compared with the 7-day-old wild type, the and triple mutants showed no obvious phenotype variation except that the triple mutant had shorter primary root and shoot. The and triple mutants exhibited a series of developmental abnormalities, including shorter primary roots, longer root hairs, fewer crown roots and lateral roots, shorter and curved shoots. Furthermore, the quadruple mutant displayed more severe phenotypic defects which was lethal. In addition, the expression levels of some hormone signal transduction and crown root development related genes, such as , and , were significantly altered in the stem base of all examined multiple mutants. Taken together, our results demonstrated that the four paralogous genes function redundantly in regulating rice growth and development.

Late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins are a class of proteins associated with osmotic regulation and plant tolerance to abiotic stress. However, studies on the gene family in the alpine cold-tolerant herb are still limited, and the phylogenetic evolution and biological functions of its family members remain unclear. In this study, we conducted genome-wide identification, phylogenetic evolution, and abiotic stress response analyses of family genes in species, alpine cold-tolerant medicinal herbs in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and adjacent regions.

Hadal zones account for the deepest 45% of oceanic depth range and play an important role in ocean biogeochemical cycles. As the least-explored aquatic habitat on earth, further investigation is still required to fully elucidate the microbial taxonomy, ecological significance, metabolic diversity, and adaptation in hadal environments. In this study, a novel strain Lsc_1132 was isolated from sediment of the Mariana Trench at 10,954 m in depth.

Much is known about the evolution and function of tandemly duplicated snake venom genes, however the potential of gene duplication to fuel venom resistance within prey species is poorly understood. In this study, we characterize patterns of gene duplication of the SERPINA subfamily of genes across in vertebrates and experimentally characterize functional variation in the SERPINA3-like paralogs of a wild rodent.

The DEAD/DEAH-box family of RNA helicases (RHs) is among the most abundant and conserved in eukaryotes. These proteins catalyze the remodeling of RNAs to regulate their splicing, stability, localization, and translation. Rare genetic variants in DEAD/DEAH-box proteins have recently emerged as being associated with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs).

Agricultural production is severely affected by environmental stresses such as drought, and deep rooting is an important factor enhancing crop drought avoidance. H-ATPases provide a transmembrane proton gradient and are thought to play a crucial role in plant growth and abiotic stress responses. However, their expression under abiotic stress and function on deep rooting is poorly understood in rice.
