Alternative splicing (AS) of precursor mRNAs (pre-mRNAs) from multiexon genes allows
organisms to increase their coding potential and regulate gene expression through multiple …

Plant protoplasts show physiological perceptions and responses to hormones, metabolites,
environmental cues, and pathogen-derived elicitors, similar to cell-autonomous responses …

Alternative splicing (AS) is a key regulatory mechanism that contributes to transcriptome and
proteome diversity. As very few genome-wide studies analyzing AS in plants are available …

Artificial neural networks have been combined with a rule based system to predict intron
splice sites in the dicot plant Arabidopsis thaliana. A two step prediction scheme, where a …

The green fluorescent protein (GFP) from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria is finding wide use
as a genetic marker that can be directly visualized in the living cells of many heterologous …

Increased expression of the insect control protein genes of Bacillus thuringiensis in plants
has been critical to the development of genetically improved plants with agronomically …

Until recently, retention of introns in mature mRNAs has been regarded as a consequence of
mis‐splicing. Intron‐retaining transcripts are thought to be non‐functional because they are …

Homologous recombination offers great promise for plant genome engineering. This
promise has not been realized, however, because when DNA enters plant cells homologous …

The plant pathogenic single‐strand DNA‐containing geminiviruses have been the recent
focus of intense investigation, owing both to their agronomic importance and to their …

Russet Burbank potato plants have been genetically improved to resist insect attack and
damage by Colorado potato beetles (Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say)) by the insertion of a …
