The unique morphology of grass stomata enables rapid responses to environmental changes. Deciphering the basis for these is critical improving food security. We have developed a planta platform single-nucleus RNA-sequencing by combined fluorescence-activated nuclei flow sorting, and used it identify cell types in mature developing from 33,098 maize epidermis-enriched tissues. Guard cells (GCs) subsidiary (SCs) displayed differential expression genes, besides those encoding transporters, involved abscisic acid, CO2, Ca2+, starch metabolism, blue light signaling pathways, implicating coordinated signal integration speedy stomatal responses, genes affecting wall plasticity, implying more sophisticated relationship between GCs SCs development dumbbell-shaped guard formation. trajectory identified young tissues, comparison bulk RNA-seq data MUTE defective mutant development, confirmed known features, shed on key participants development. Our study provides valuable, comprehensive, fundamental foundation further insights into function.

Abstract Motivation Gene lists are routinely produced from various genome-wide studies. Enrichment analysis can link these gene with underlying molecular pathways by using functional categories such as ontology (GO). Results To complement existing tools, we developed ShinyGO several features: (1) large annotation database GO and many other sources for over 200 plant animal species, (2) graphical visualization of enrichment results characteristics, (3) application program interface (API) access to KEGG STRING the retrieval pathway diagrams protein-protein interaction networks. is an intuitive, web that help researchers gain actionable insights lists.

Leaf (LR), (YR) (TS) are some of the important foliar diseases wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). To candidate for these CIMMYT's (International Maize Wheat Improvement Center) International bread screening nurseries, we genome-wide studies (GWAS) information from plants. entries were genotyped using genotyping-by-sequencing phenotyped replicated trials. Using a mixed linear model, observed that seedling LR associated 12 markers on chromosomes 1DS, 2AS, 2BL, 3B, 4AL, 6AS 6AL, TS 14 1AS, 2AL, 3AS, 3AL, 6AL. Seedling adult plant (APR) YR several at distal end chromosome 2AS. In addition, APR also 2DL, 3B 7DS. The potential included genes, receptor-like serine/threonine-protein kinases defense-related enzymes. However, extensive LD decays about 5 × 107 bps, poses huge challenge delineating gene intervals candidates should be further mapped, functionally characterized validated. We explored segment 2AS multiple disease identified seventeen genes. conclude identifying significant GWAS is feasible wheat, thus creating opportunities accelerating molecular breeding.

Members of the AP2/ERF transcription factor family play critical roles in plant development, biosynthesis key metabolites, and stress response. A detailed study was performed to identify TtAP2s/ERFs durum wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum) genome, which resulted identification 271 genes distributed on chromosomes 1A-7B. By carrying 27 genes, chromosome 6A had highest number TtAP2s/ERFs. Furthermore, a duplication assay demonstrated that 70 duplicated gene pairs undergone purifying selection. According RNA-seq analysis, expression levels all tissues response stimuli were associated with DRF ERF subfamily genes. In addition, results revealed TtAP2/ERF have tissue-specific patterns, most significantly induced root tissue. Additionally, 13 (six ERFs, three DREBs, two DRFs, one AP2, RAV) selected for further analysis via qRT-PCR their potential coping drought salinity stresses.
