Title : Differential expression pattern for C4 specific gene copies in rice grains and its relevance with the intermediate step in the C4 evolution
Parimalan Rangan, ICAR-National Bureau of Plant Genetic Resources, India
The ‘light reactions’ of photosynthesis are highly conserved while the carbon concentrating mechanism (CCM) part of the ‘dark reactions’ have evolved many times. In Poaceae, where C4 photosynthesis was evolved, independent evolution for the C4 trait was re [....] » Read More
Title : Engineering defense response in plants through miRNA mediated suppression of regulatory factors
Raj Kumar Joshi, Rama Devi Women’s University, India
on-coding RNAs are prominent modulators of transcriptional and post-transcriptional expression of genes in a wide range of biological processes. However, the repertoire and functions of microRNAs largely remains unexplored with respect to defense against fungal phytopathogens. In [....] » Read More
Title : Ethylene alone may play a key role in modulating induction of isoflavonoids, an important defense against herbivore insects in field grown soybean
Jorge A Zavala, University of Buenos Aires, Argentina
