Correct expression of specific sets of genes in time and space ensures the establishment
and maintenance of cell identity, which is required for proper development of multicellular …

Histone methylation plays a fundamental role in the epigenetic regulation of gene
expression driven by developmental and environmental cues in plants, including …

Polycomb group (PcG) proteins evolved early in evolution, probably in the common ancestor
of animals and plants. In some unicellular organisms, such as Chlamydomonas and …

Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) is arguably the best-known plant complex of the
Polycomb Group (PcG) pathway, formed by a group of proteins that epigenetically represses …

Given their sessile nature, plants have evolved sophisticated regulatory networks to confer
developmental plasticity for adaptation to fluctuating environments. Epigenetic codes, like tri …

Protein complexes involved in epigenetic regulation of transcription have evolved as
molecular strategies to face environmental stress in plants. SAGA (Spt–Ada–Gcn5 …

Polycomb-group (PcG) proteins mediate epigenetic gene regulation by setting H3K27me3
via Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2). In plants, it is largely unclear how PcG …

Telomere repeat binding proteins (TRBs) belong to a family of proteins possessing a Myb-
like domain which binds to telomeric repeats. Three members of this family (TRB1, TRB2 …

In eukaryotes, general transcription factors (GTFs) enable recruitment of RNA polymerase II
(RNA Pol II) to core promoters to facilitate initiation of transcription. Extensive research in …

Leaf angle is one of the key factors that determines rice plant architecture. However, the
improvement of leaf angle erectness is often accompanied by unfavourable changes in …
