Agrobacterium rhizogenes (or Rhizobium rhizogenes) is able to transform plant genomes
and induce the production of hairy roots. We describe the use of A. rhizogenes in tomato (…

The transcriptional regulatory structure of plant genomes remains poorly defined relative to
animals. It is unclear how many cis-regulatory elements exist, where these elements lie …

Plant species have evolved myriads of solutions, including complex cell type development
and regulation, to adapt to dynamic environments. To understand this cellular diversity, we …

Flooding due to extreme weather threatens crops and ecosystems. To understand variation
in gene regulatory networks activated by submergence, we conducted a high-resolution …

Plants adjust their development in relation to the availability of nutrient sources. This
necessitates signaling between root and shoot. Aside from the well-known systemic signaling …

Formation of specialized cells and tissues at defined times and in specific positions is
essential for the development of multicellular organisms. Often this developmental precision is …

Understanding how roots modulate development under varied irrigation or rainfall is crucial
for development of climate-resilient crops. We established a toolbox of tagged rice lines to …

In plants, MADS-box transcription factors are key regulators of floral and fruit development,
organ dehiscence and stress responses. Nevertheless, the functions of most of them are still …

Isolated nuclei provide access to early steps in gene regulation involving chromatin as well
as transcript production and processing. Here, we describe transfer of the isolation of nuclei …

Gene expression is controlled at transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels including
decoding of messenger RNA (mRNA) into polypeptides via ribosome-mediated translation. …
