During vegetative growth plants pass from a juvenile to an adult phase causing changes in
shoot morphology. This vegetative phase change is primarily regulated by the opposite …

Nitrogen (N) is one of the indispensable nutrients required by plants for their growth,
development, and survival. Being a limited nutrient, it is mostly supplied exogenously to the …

In contrast to animals, adult organs in plants are not formed during embryogenesis but
generated from meristematic cells as plants advance through development. Plant …

Summary Cleistogenes songorica (2n= 4x= 40) is a desert grass with a unique dimorphic
flowering mechanism and an ability to survive extreme drought. Little is known about the …

The miR156-targeted SQUAMOSA PROMOTER BINDING PROTEIN-LIKE (SPL)
transcription factors play key roles in regulating plant development, but little is known about …

A photoperiod-and thermo-sensitive genic male sterile (PTGMS) line is the basic material for
two-hybrid rice and is an important genetic breeding resource. Peiai64S (PA64S) is an …

As an essential nutrient, copper (Cu) scarcity causes a decrease in agricultural production.
Cu deficiency responses include the induction of several microRNAs, known as Cu-miRNAs …

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs that are more than 200
nucleotides in length. Emerging evidence suggest that lncRNAs by regulating gene …

Abstract Background Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to play important
roles in the regulation of plant growth and development. Recent transcriptomic analyses …

Two-line hybrid rice systems represent a new technical approach to utilizing the advantages
of rice hybrids. However, the mechanism underlying the male sterile-line fertility transition in …
