Vegetative propagation allows the amplification of selected genotypes for research,
breeding, and commercial planting. However, efficient in vitro regeneration and
genetic transformation remains a major obstacle to research and commercial
application in many plant species. Our aims are to improve knowledge of gene
regulatory circuits important to meristem organization, and...
To survive winter, many perennial plants become endodormant, a state of suspended growth maintained even in favorable growing environments. To understand vegetative bud endodormancy, we collected paradormant, endodormant, and ecodormant axillary buds from Populus trees growing under natural conditions. Of 44,441 Populus gene models analyzed using NimbleGen microarrays, we found...

Background: Functional annotations of large plant genome projects mostly provide information on gene function
and gene families based on the presence of protein domains and gene homology, but not necessarily in
association with gene expression or metabolic and regulatory networks. These additional annotations are necessary
to understand the physiology, development...

Comparative analysis of multiple angiosperm genomes has implicated gene duplication in the expansion and diversification of many gene families. However, empirical data and theory suggest that whole-genome and small-scale duplication events differ with respect to the types of genes preserved as duplicate pairs. We compared gene duplicates resulting from a...
BACKGROUND: Circadian clocks provide an adaptive advantage through anticipation of daily and seasonal environmental
changes. In plants, the central clock oscillator is regulated by several interlocking feedback loops. It was shown that a
substantial proportion of the Arabidopsis genome cycles with phases of peak expression covering the entire day.
Synchronized...
