Open AccessGenome-wide and comparative phylogenetic analysis of senescence-associated NAC transcription factors in sunflower (Helianthus annuus)
Leaf senescence delay impacts positively in grain yield by maintaining the photosynthetic area during the reproductive stage and during grain filling. Therefore a comprehensive understanding of the gene famili...

Open AccessEffect of paleopolyploidy and allopolyploidy on gene expression in banana
Bananas (Musa spp.) are an important crop worldwide. Most modern cultivars resulted from a complex polyploidization history that comprised three whole genome duplications (WGDs) sha** the haploid Musa genome, f...

Open AccessImprovement of the banana “Musa acuminata” reference sequence using NGS data and semi-automated bioinformatics methods
Recent advances in genomics indicate functional significance of a majority of genome sequences and their long range interactions. As a detailed examination of genome organization and function requires very hig...

Open AccessAssessment of genetic and epigenetic changes during cell culture ageing and relations with somaclonal variation in Coffea arabica
Long-term cell cultures were used in coffee to study the cytological, genetic and epigenetic changes occurring during cell culture ageing. The objective was to identify the mechanisms associated with somaclon...

Open AccessOrganization and molecular evolution of a disease-resistance gene cluster in coffee trees
Most disease-resistance (R) genes in plants encode NBS-LRR proteins and belong to one of the largest and most variable gene families among plant genomes. However, the specific evolutionary routes of NBS-LRR en...

Genetic and physical map** of the SH3 region that confers resistance to leaf rust in coffee tree (Coffea arabica L.)
Resistance to coffee leaf rust is conferred by SH3, a major dominant gene that has been introgressed from a wild coffee species Coffea liberica (genome L) into the allotetraploid cultivated species, Coffea arabic...

Comparative sequence analyses indicate that Coffea (Asterids) and Vitis (Rosids) derive from the same paleo-hexaploid ancestral genome
The complete sequence of Vitis vinifera revealed that the rosid clade derives from a hexaploid ancestor. At present, no analysis of complete genome sequence is available for an asterid, the other large eudicot cl...

A LTR copia retrotransposon and Mutator transposons interrupt Pgip genes in cultivated and wild wheats
Polygalacturonase-inhibiting proteins (PGIPs) are leucine-rich repeat (LRR) proteins involved in plant defence. Wheat pgip genes have been isolated from the B (Tapgip1) and D (Tapgip2) genomes, and now we report ...
