Role of the rice transcription factor JAmyb in abiotic stress response
Plants have developed certain adaptive responses to environmental stresses that cause adverse effects on growth. To identify genes involved in the adaptive mechanisms, we constructed a large population of tran...

Assessment of ribozyme-mediated gene suppression using a luciferase reporter gene containing the sequence of Chrysanthemum Stunt Viroid as a target
Transgenic tobacco plants expressing hammerhead ribozyme (Rz), which specifically cleaves Chrysanthemum Stunt Viroid (CSVd) RNA, were produced via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. To analyze the effects of ...

Regulation of histone gene expression during the cell cycle
The steady-state level of histone mRNAs fluctuates coordinately with chromosomal DNA synthesis during the cell cycle. Such an S phase-specific expression pattern results from transcriptional activation of hist...

S phase-specific expression of plant histone genes
The Oct motif (CGCGGATC) is highly conserved in plant histone gene promoters. Three types of Oct-containing composite elements have been identified: type I element composed of Hex and reverse-oriented Oct (CCACGT...

The flowering-time geneFT and regulation of flowering inArabidopsis
Transition from vegetative to reproductive development (flowering) is one of the most important decisions during the post-embryonic development of flowering plants. More than twenty loci are known to regulate ...

The historical differentiation process inHemerocallis middendorfii (Liliaceae) of Japan based on restriction site variations of chlorplast DNA
Chloroplast DNA restriction site variation inHemerocallis middendorfii Trautv. & Meyer was investigated to deduce the historical differentiation process that had taken place in populations among three districts H...
