Plant biological processes, such as growth and metabolism, hormone signal transduction,
and stress responses, are affected by gene transcriptional regulation. As gene expression …

▪ Abstract The hormone gibberellin (GA) plays an important role in modulating diverse
processes throughout plant development. In recent years, significant progress has been …

In angiosperms, a double fertilization event initiates the development of two distinct
structures, the embryo and endosperm. The endosperm plays an important role in …

Abstract The DOF (DNA-binding One Zinc Finger) family of transcription factors is involved in
many fundamental processes in higher plants, including responses to light and …

With the burgeoning population of the world, the successful germination of seeds to achieve
maximum crop production is very important. Seed germination is a precise balance of …

The molecular mechanism by which GA regulates plant growth and development has been
a subject of active research. Analyses of the rice (Oryza sativa) genomic sequences …

Dof (DNA-binding with one finger) domain proteins are plant-specific transcription factors
with a highly conserved DNA-binding domain, which presumably includes a single C2-C2 …

Plant cystatins have been the object of intense research since the publication of a first paper
reporting their existence more than 20 years ago. These ubiquitous inhibitors of Cys …

Main conclusion The structural, functional and in-silico studies of Dof transcription factor
attempted so far reveals immense opportunity to analyze the plant genomes in terms of …

Gibberellins (GA) promote while abscisic acid (ABA) inhibits seed germination and post‐
germination growth. To address the cross‐talk of GA and ABA signaling, we studied two rice …
