Histone acetylation and deacetylation play an important role in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression in eukaryotes.Histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs) reversibly
Abscisic acid (ABA) is the most important hormone for plants to resist drought and other abiotic stresses.ABA binds directly to the PYR/PYL family of ABA receptors, resulting in inhibition of type 2C
Small RNAs are a class of short non-coding regulators that mediate gene silencing in a sequence-specific manner by loading into Argonaute protein (AGO) to target complementary genes.Small RNAs have be
Interactions among key regulators of Arabidopsis gynoecium development have revealed a network of transcription factor activities required for dividing this organ into discrete domains.Regulation of a
Grapes can be seen as a model system for understanding non-climacteric fruit ripening as berry ripening is less dependent on ethylene and appears to be controlled by several other plant growth regulat
Auxin is an important phytohormone for fleshy fruit development, having been shown to be involved in the initial signal for fertilisation, fruit size through the control of cell division and cell expa
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as important regulatory components in major cellular processes in eukaryotes.Here, we developed a stringent selection pipeline for lncRNA identification, co
Fruit ripening and leaf senescence are very important biological processes that are highly regulated by such various plant growth substances as ethylene, abscisic acid (ABA), salicylic acid (SA), jasm
To obtain the information on genetic diversity and quality traits, the high molecular weight glutenin subunit composition and PCR based markers of high molecular weight glutenin subunits were analyzed
