The present study supports the view that the retinoblastoma functions are shared by two distinct retinoblastoma-related (RBR) protein subfamilies in the monocot cereal species, whereas dicot plants ...

The researchers first identified and cloned sequences of monocot B. distachyon's NPR genes-BdNPR1, 2, and 3-which were similar to the NPR sequences of other dicot species, including Arabidopsis.

In the absence of a monocot specific model system in the past, Evogene, consistent with general practice in the industry, has utilized a dicot model plant system -- based on Arabidopsis -- for the ...

Scientist Matt Humphry of the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research and his team identified a set of genes regulated by a common protein that has been conserved in the genome of monocot and ...

The mechanism of plant defense mediated by the non-expressor of pathogenesis-related (NPR) genes in monocots (plants having a single embryonic leaf) is not well-documented. Now, scientists from ...

Consistent with this notion, several genes required for AMS have been conserved throughout evolution 5 and their symbiotic functions preserved, at least between monocot and dicot plants 6, 7.

We know the most about eudicots, partly because this group contains three-quarters of all flowering plants (while 22 per cent are monocots), but also because the most-studied plant on Earth is ...

Of these, at least S. meliloti is competent to transfer genes into both dicot and monocot plants and into a range of tissues, including leaf tissue, undifferentiated calli and immature ovules.

Scientist Matt Humphry of the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research and his team identified a set of genes regulated by a common protein that has been conserved in the genome of monocot and ...
