چکیده

Understanding the fundamental mechanisms of plant disease resistance is of central importance to sustainable agriculture and human health. Use of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana has resulted in an explosion of information regarding both disease resistance and susceptibility to pathogens. The last 20 years of research have demonstrated the commonalities between Arabidopsis and crop species. In this review, commemorating the 10th anniversary of the sequencing of the Arabidopsis genome, we will address some of the insights derived from the use of Arabidopsis as a model plant pathology system.

Identification and Expression Analysis of Two Arabidopsis LRR-Protein Encoding Genes Responsive to Some Abiotic Stresses

AbstractTwo Arabidopsis thaliana genes, psr9.2 and psr9.4 appearedto be highly similar to a phosphate-starved induced gene,psr9, isolated from Brassica nigra suspension cells.Sequence analysis classified the encoded polypeptides asmembers of leucine-rich repeat (LRR) proteins superfamily.The sequence of psr9 proteins comprise a unique N-terminalregion e...

ARABIDOPSIS: A RICH HARVEST 10 YEARS AFTER COMPLETION OF THE GENOME SEQUENCE Seasonal and developmental timing of flowering

The coordination of the timing of flowering with seasonal and development cues is a critical life-history trait that has been shaped by evolution to maximize reproductive success. Decades of studying many plant species have revealed several of the fascinating systems that plants have evolved to control flowering time: such as the perception of day length in leaves, which leads to the production...

Functional analysis of glycin rich- RNA binding protein, a suppressor of trehalose-6-phosphate mediating growth arrest in Arabidopsis thaliana

Metabolism of the alpha-1,1 glucose disaccharide, trehalose, is indispensable in plants. In the Murashigeand Skoog (MS) medium, trehalose inhibits plant growth and allocation of carbon to roots. A suppressorof trehalose-6-phosphate (T6P) mediated growth arrest, GR-RBP2, is characterized in more detail.Phylogenetic analysis revealed that GR-RBP2 is a protein of likely prokaryot...

Isolation and molecular characterization of the RecQsim gene in Arabidopsis, rice (Oryza sativa) and rape (Brassica napus)

In any organism that reproduces sexually, DNA Recombination plays vital roles in the generation of allelic diversity as well as in preservation of genome fidelity. Genome fidelity is particularly important in plants because mutations occurring during the development of flowering plants are heritable and can be passed onto the next generation. One of the gene families that play crucial roles in ...

Arabidopsis leaf plasma membrane proteome using a gel free method: Focus on receptor–like kinases

The hydrophobic proteins of plant plasma membrane still remain largely unknown.  For example in the Arabidopsis genome, receptor-like kinases (RLKs) are plasma membrane proteins, functioning as the primary receptors in the signaling of stress conditions, hormones and the presence of pathogens form a diverse family of over 610 genes. A limited number of these proteins have appeard in pr...
