The wheat TaSAMS10 improves survival rate under waterlogging stress by inducing ethylene synthesis and early flowering
Monson and irregular pluviometric distributions occur frequently, causing waterlogging, which reduces wheat yield under hypoxic conditions. Key hypoxia-related genes are of paramount importance for breeding wa...

Factors driving the positive resorption of aluminum and iron from old leaves
Leaf resorption is an important mechanism for plant nutrient conservation, but not all elements are resorbed by plants. It is generally believed that aluminum (Al) and iron (Fe) are not resorbed from old leave...

Open AccessDNA Methylation Alterations and Their Association with High Temperature Tolerance in Rice Anthesis
DNA methylation is an important epigenetic mechanism involved in gene regulation under environmental stresses in plants. However, little information is available regarding its responses to high temperature (HT...

Salicylic acid-mediated diacylglycerol/triacylglycerol conversion affects the freezing tolerance of Arabidopsis
Diacylglycerol (DAG) is likely converted to triacylglycerol (TAG) by the enzyme diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT), and this conversion is important in the freezing tolerance of Arabidopsis. The phytohormone s...

Genetic and epigenetic variations in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) using SSR and MSAP approaches
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is the fourth largest cereal crop in the world with extensive adaptability in diverse environments. There is increasing evidence that epigenetics contributes to plant evolution and ada...

Fine map** QSc.VR4, an effective and stable scald resistance locus in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), to a 0.38-Mb region enriched with LRR-RLK and GLP genes
An effective and stable quantitative resistance locus, QSc.VR4, was fine mapped, characterized and physically anchored to the short arm of 4H, conferring adult plant resistance to the fungus Rhynchosporium commun...

Open AccessEvolutionary dynamic analyses on monocot flavonoid 3′-hydroxylase gene family reveal evidence of plant-environment interaction
Flavonoid 3′-hydroxlase (F3’H) is an important enzyme in determining the B-ring hydroxylation pattern of flavonoids. In monocots, previous studies indicated the presence of two groups of F3’Hs with different e...

Open AccessCharacterization of the sdw1 semi-dwarf gene in barley
The dwarfing gene sdw1 has been widely used throughout the world to develop commercial barley varieties. There are at least four different alleles at the sdw1 locus.

Rapid alterations of gene expression and cytosine methylation in newly synthesized Brassica napus allopolyploids
Allopolyploidy is an important speciation mechanism and is ubiquitous among plants. Brassica napus is a model system for studying the consequences of hybridization and polyploidization on allopolyploid genome. In...
