Open AccessMGA-seq: robust identification of extrachromosomal DNA and genetic variants using multiple genetic abnormality sequencing
Genomic abnormalities are strongly associated with cancer and infertility. In this study, we develop a simple and efficient method — multiple genetic abnormality sequencing (MGA-Seq) — to simultaneously detect...

Open AccessEvolution of pectin synthesis relevant galacturonosyltransferase gene family and its expression during cotton fiber development
Pectin is a key substance involved in cell wall development, and the galacturonosyltransferases (GAUTs) gene family is a critical participant in the pectin synthesis pathway. Systematic and comprehensive resea...

Localization of OsTLP27 in thylakoid lumen is required for accumulation of photosynthetic proteins in rice
We previously identified an AtTLP homolog, OsTLP27, in rice, whose overexpression improves chloroplast ultrastructure and photochemical efficiency. However, its molecular role in photosystem (PS) function and...

OsEXPB2, a β-expansin gene, is involved in rice root system architecture
Expansins are cell wall loosening proteins which generally play important roles as endogenous regulators in plants. Here we report a rice (Oryza sativa L.) β-expansin gene, OsEXPB2, which encodes a 28.6-kDa prote...

Regulation of the α-expansin gene OsEXPA8 expression affects root system architecture in transgenic rice plants
Expansins are cell wall proteins implicated in the control of plant growth via loosening of the extracellular matrix, and are encoded by a large gene family. However, data linked to loss of function of single ...
