The concept of expressing non-plant glycosyl hydrolase genes in plant tissue is nearly two
decades old, yet relatively little work in this field has been reported. However, resurgent …

Mitochondrial biogenesis requires a coordinated expression of both the nuclear and the
organellar genomes and specific intracellular protein trafficking, processing and assembly …

Ribosomal proteins (RPs) are indispensable in ribosome biogenesis and protein synthesis,
and play a crucial role in diverse developmental processes. Our previous studies on …

The stability of transgenes in the genome of transformed plants depends strongly on their
correct physical integration into the host genome as well as on flanking target DNA …

Potato virus Y has emerged as a threatening problem in all potato growing areas around the
globe. PVY reduces the yield and quality of potato cultivars. During the last 30 years …

Transgene silencing mechanisms have been confirmed in many crop plants, however, few
reports are currently available for long-lived tree species. Three transgenic aspen lines …

Constant genome change is the driving force of evolution. Higher plants display remarkable
phenotypic plasticity during their development. Unlike higher animals, in which virtually all …
