Regeneration is an essential step for recovery of transgenic plants following gene transfer.
However, most cotton cultivars fail to respond to the current regeneration protocols for …

Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is a model system for understanding the physiological,
biochemical, and molecular biological events occurring during plant embryo development …

Background Small auxin-up RNA (SAUR) gene family is the largest family of early auxin
response genes in higher plants, which have been implicated in the regulation of multiple …

The transition from vegetative to reproductive growth is very important for early maturity in
cotton. However, the genetic control of this highly dynamic and complex developmental …

Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is the developmental reprogramming of somatic cells toward
the embryogenesis pathway and is a notable illustration of cell totipotency. To identify genes …

Cotton is an important natural fiber crop, however, its comprehensive and high-resolution
gene map is lacking. Here we integrate four complementary high-throughput techniques …

Members of the Aux/IAA gene family encode proteins that mediate the responses of auxin-
regulated gene expression and regulate various aspects of plant morphological …

Auxin signalling plays an essential role in regulating plant development. Auxin response
factors (ARFs), which are critical components of auxin signalling, modulate the expression of …

Cotton fibers are seed trichomes that make cotton unique compared with other plants. At
anthesis, IAA, a major auxin in plants, accumulates in the fiber cell to promote cell initiation …

Background Somatic embryogenesis is a major process for plant regeneration. However,
cell communication and the gene regulatory network responsible for cell reprogramming …
