Abstract Genetic transformation of plants is pivotal for advancing biotechnology, with success depending largely on effective selection methods. Marchantia polymorpha has emerged as a model plant due to its evolutionary importance, ease manipulation, and simple genetic structure. However, inconsistent antibiotic performance limited studies optimal agent concentrations have posed challenges. This study aimed optimize use in M. transformation. We assessed the effects five antibiotics (hygromycin, kanamycin, G418, neomycin, gentamicin) herbicide chlorsulfuron gemmae growth. For each agent, we identified minimum lethal concentration nontransgenic safe thresholds transgenics, balancing false-positive prevention reduced toxicity. Hygromycin, exhibited broad selective ranges, enabling efficient transformant selection. Notably, observed cross-activity gentamicin resistance enzyme phenomenon also seen tobacco. effectively determined agents Additionally, unexpected underscores need careful marker highlights potential strategic use. Our findings enhance protocols possibly other species.

Abstract Marchantia polymorpha has become an important model system for comparative studies and synthetic biology. The systematic characterization of genetic elements would make heterologous gene expression more predictable in this test bed circuit assembly bioproduction. Yet, the toolbox parts includes only a few constitutive promoters that need benchmarking to assess their utility. We compared patterns previously characterized new promoters. found driving with double enhancer version cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter (pro35S × 2) provided highest yield proteins, although it also inhibits growth transformants. In contrast, derived from genes ETHYLENE RESPONSE FACTOR 1 CLASS II HOMEODOMAIN-LEUCINE ZIPPER protein drove higher levels across all tissues without penalty can provide intermediate expression. addition, we showed cytosol is best subcellular compartment target proteins significant burden. To demonstrate potential these Marchantia, expressed RUBY, polycistronic betalain synthesis cassette linked by P2A sequences, coordinated metabolic enzymes. A heat-shock-inducible was used further mitigate burdens associated high amounts accumulation. have expanded existing tool kit resources research community.

Introduction Leptoids, the food-conducting cells of polytrichaceous mosses, share key structural features with sieve elements in tracheophytes, including an elongated shape oblique end walls containing modified plasmodesmata or pores. In callose is instrumental developing pores that enable efficient photoassimilate transport. Aside from a few studies using aniline blue fluorescence yielded confusing results, little known about moss leptoids. Methods Callose location and abundance during development leptoid cell was investigated Polytrichum commune quantitative immunogold labeling (label density) transmission electron microscope. To evaluate changes abiotic stress, leptoids hydrated plants compared to dried for 14 days under field conditions. A bioinformatic study assess evolution within across bryophytes conducted synthase (CalS) genes 46 (24 15 liverworts, 7 hornworts) one representative each five tracheophyte groups. Results increases around meristematic mature Controlled drying resulted significant increase label density over counts plants. Phylogenetic analysis CalS protein family recovered main clades (A, B, C). Different where greatest diversity homologs found clade A, majority gene duplication B. Discussion This work identifies as crucial wall polymer their inception functioning leptoids, water stress similar tracheophytes. Among bryophytes, mosses exhibit number multiple events, while only two duplications are revealed hornwort none liverworts. The absence essential pore angiosperms, reveals different responsible synthesizing associated mosses.

Hornworts are a deeply diverged lineage of bryophytes and sister to mosses liverworts. have an array unique features that can be leveraged illuminate not only the early evolution land plants, but also alternative paths for nitrogen carbon assimilation via cyanobacterial symbiosis pyrenoid-based CO2-concentrating mechanism (CCM), respectively. Despite this, hornworts one few plant lineages with limited available genetic tools. Here we report efficient biolistics method generating transient expression stable transgenic lines in model hornwort, Anthoceros agrestis. An average 569 (±268) cells showed per bombardment, green fluorescent protein observed within 48-72 h. A total 81 stably transformed were recovered across three separate experiments, averaging six bombardment. We followed same transiently transform nine additional hornwort species, obtained transformants from one. This was further used verify localization Rubisco activase pyrenoids, which central proteins CCM function. Together, our approach offers key advantages over existing methods as it enables rapid applied widely diverse species.

The liverwort Marchantia polymorpha has emerged as a valuable model for studying fundamental biological processes and the evolutionary history of land plants. Agrobacterium-mediated transformation is widely used genetic modification M. using spores, thalli, gemmae. While spores offer high efficiency, they result in diverse backgrounds due to sexual reproduction. Conversely, thallus- gemma-based methods maintain consistency but are impractical large-scale applications. To address these limitations, we developed novel chopped-thallus method. This technique improves efficiency by generating numerous thallus fragments through chopping optimizing regeneration duration. method demonstrated superior compared traditional approaches achieved sufficient numbers transformants simplified Gamborg's B5 medium, previously considered suboptimal. scalable straightforward enables generation large genetically consistent transformants, facilitating high-throughput experiments, including mutant screening other

Photosynthesis in eukaryotic cells takes place chloroplasts that develop from undifferentiated plastids response to light. Two families of transcription factors known as Golden2-like (GLK) and GATA regulate plant chloroplast development, the MIR171-targeted SCARECROW-LIKE (SCL) GRAS chlorophyll biosynthesis. Additionally, Elongated Hypocotyl 5 (HY5) factor plays a critical role photomorphogenesis. The extent which these proteins carry out conserved roles non-seed plants such liverworts is not known. Here we determine degree functional conservation GLK, GATA, SCL HY5 controlling development model liverwort Marchantia polymorpha. Our results indicate have minimal or undetectable biogenesis but loss GLK function leads reduced size, underdeveloped thylakoid membranes lower accumulation. ChIP-seq RNA-seq analyses revealed can directly many photosynthetic development-related genes. But there extensive divergence between its M. polymorpha flowering plants. Collectively our findings suggest well more specialised photomorphogenesis, either evolved after vascular bryophytes, were lost polymorpha, redundancy masking their roles. In contrast, consistent with presence algae,

The lycophyte Phylloglossum drummondii is the sole inhabitant of its genus in Huperzioideae group and one a small minority plants which perform uridine to cytidine RNA editing. We assembled P. chloroplast mitochondrial genomes used sequence data build comprehensive profile organellar editing events. In addition many C-to-U events both organelles, we found just four U-to-C transcripts cob, nad1, nad5 rpl2. These are conserved related lycophytes genera Huperzia Phlegmariurus. De novo transcriptomes for three these were search putative enzymes. Four factors could be matched sites. Due unusually few numbers sites, useful models studying this poorly understood mechanism.
