Impact of CCR1 silencing on the assembly of lignified secondary walls in Arabidopsis thaliana.

18 Jul 2009 A cinnamoyl-CoA reductase 1 knockout mutant in Arabidopsis thaliana was investigated for the consequences of lignin synthesis perturbation on the assembly of the cell walls. The mutant displayed a dwarf phenotype and a strong collapse of its xylem ... Read more...

Nicotianamine synthase specifically expressed in root nodules of Lotus japonicus.

18 May 2009 In dicotyledonous plants, nicotianamine synthase (NAS) is thought to play a role in the intercellular transport of iron (Fe). Fe is an essential metal for nitrogen-fixing root nodules of legumes, prompting us to characterize the role of the NAS gene ... Read more...

The expression of caffeic acid 3-O-methyltransferase in two wheat genotypes differing in lodging resistance.

16 May 2009 Stem lodging-resistance is an important phenotype in crop production. In the present study, the expression of the wheat COMT gene (TaCM) was determined in basal second internodes of lodging-resistant (H4564) and lodging-susceptible (C6001) cultivars ... Read more...
