Identification of regulators of heat shock-inducible gene in Arabidopsis

Ruan, Qing Xia (2012-12)

By using forward genetic screening, we identified an Arabidopsis mutant LL729 showing reduced expression of the luciferase reporter gene driven by the heat stress inducible promoter of AtHsp18.2 gene. Extensive phenotyping ...
The role of HDA6 and FRY2 in gene regulation and abiotic stress response in arabidopsis

Wang, Hui (2011-05)

Gene regulation is a central process in plant response to environmental stresses. Many genes are either up- or down-regulated under stress conditions, which are mediated through signaling pathways starting from perceiving ...
Transposable element-like non-conserved miRNAs and their targets in rice: evolutionary and functional implications

Ouyang, Fangqian (2011-08)

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are 20- to 24 nt riboregulators that play important roles in eukaryotic growth and development. Their evolution is poorly understood and there are no conserved miRNAs between plants and animals, yet ...
