Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Maize Handbook represents the collective efforts of the maize research community to enumerate the key steps of standard procedures and to disseminate these protocols for the common good. Although the material in this volume is drawn from experience with maize, many of the procedures, protocols, and descriptions are applicable to other higher plants, particularly to other grasses. The power and resolution of experiments with maize depend on the wide range of specialized genetic techniques and marked stocks; these materials are available today as the culmination of nearly 100 years of genetic research. A major goal of this volume is to introduce this genetical legacy and to highlight current stock construction programs that will soon benefit our work, e. g. high-density RFLP maps, deletion stocks, etc. Both stock construction and maintenance are relatively straightforward in maize as a result of the ease of crossing and the longevity of stored seeds. Crossing is facilitated by the separate staminate (tassel) and pistillate (ear) flowers, a feature almost unique to maize. On the other hand, many of the genetic methodologies utilized with maize, including the precision of record keeping, can be adapted to other plants. Facile communication and a spirit of co-operation have characterized the maize genetics community since its earliest days. Starting in the 1930s, institutions such as annual Maize Genetics Cooperation Newsletter, the Maize Genetics Stock Center, and the annual maize genetics meeting provide continuity to the field.

This book was released on 2010-10-17 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to their sessile lifestyle, plants need to efficiently adapt to changing environmental conditions during their life cycle. Nutrient acquisition from the soil has to be able to adapt to considerable fluctuations in concentrations to ensure adequate distribution between tissues, cells and organelles. The storage and retrieval of nutrients, metabolites or toxic substances in vacuoles plays an important part in cellular homeostasis in plants. The long-range transport and maintenance of turgor is critically dependent on the availability of water and rate of evaporation, while at the same time photosynthetic products have to be transported to all plant parts. As a result plants contain a large number of ATP-dependent pumps and secondary transporters that, in order to adapt to the changing environment, need to be regulated by a complex network of sensing and signaling mechanisms. Plants share many basic elements of signal transduction with animals, but also contain plant-specific signaling molecules and mechanisms. In this volume, the role of transporters and pumps in the regulation of movement, long-range transport and compartmentalization of water, solutes, nutrients and classical signaling molecules is highlighted, and the function, regulation and membrane-transporter interaction and their roles in plant signaling controlling plant physiology and development are discussed.

Download or read book Identification and Characterization of a Maize (zea Mays L.) Gene Controlling Embryogenic Tissue Culture Response and Enhancement of Maize Transformation Systems written by Frank Lloyd McFarland and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maize is one of the most economically important crops in the US and globally for food, feed, and biofuel production. Efficient production of regenerable, embryogenic tissue cultures of maize is necessary for both basic biological research and applied biotechnological approaches to maize genetic improvement. Efficient generation of regenerable cultures in maize is highly genotype-dependent and, historically, researchers in academia and industry have relied extensively upon a restrictively small number of genotypes amenable to conventional tissue culture. To identify the genetic basis for genotypic differences in culture response, a mapping-based approach was utilized. The tissue culture response trait from the regenerable maize inbred A188 was backcrossed into the recalcitrant inbred B73. An A188 genomic introgression spanning 3 Mb on chromosome 3 was strongly associated with regenerable tissue culture response. Three candidate genes were selected in the region based on their expression in A188 immature embryos and functional annotations of genes in the region. A screen of each candidate gene expressed under constitutive promoters identified a single candidate, Wox2a, which was found to induce somatic embryogenesis and embryogenic callus in B73.A complementary approach to mapping the A188 culture response trait was undertaken to map the genotype-dependent response of diverse maize lines to Wuschel2/Baby boom (Wus/Bbm)-mediated genetic transformation. Though Wus/Bbm-mediated transformation reduced recalcitrance of many lines through co-transformation with developmental regulators, strong trends of genotype-dependence were still observed. Ten diverse maize lines were screened to identify lines highly amenable to Wus/Bbm-mediated transformation. Transgenic plants/events were recovered from eight of the ten lines. One line, Gaspé Flint, generated transgenic events efficiently and at a wide range of embryo maturities. A Gaspé Flint x B73 introgression library was screened through Wus/Bbm-mediated transformation and Gaspe̹ Flint introgressions associated with transformability were identified on chromosomes 1, 4, and 7. The scale of the transformation experiments necessitated isolation of thousands of immature embryo explants, for which a high-throughput method of embryo isolation (SIMPLE extraction) was developed. Methods for SIMPLE extraction, as well as optimized methods for Wus/Bbm-mediated and Wox2a-mediated maize transformation were developed to enable easy adoption these developing technologies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work presented here focuses on the molecular mechanism of phytosiderophore secretion in graminaceous plants. In maize, yellow stripe3 (ys3) is a mutant that is deficient in its ability to secrete iron-chelating compounds of the mugineic acid family known as phytosiderophores. Phytosiderophores are specific to grasses and are used for the acquisition of iron. Genetic linkage mapping of the ys3 locus lead to a region of interest on chromosome 3 defined by marker UMC1773. The sequence of eleven candidate genes (GRMZM2G390345, GRMZM2G390374, GRMZM2G342821, GRMZM5G800764, GRMZM2G502560, GRMZM5G849435, GRMZM2G105766, GRMZM5G876835, GRMZM2G036976, GRMZM2G502563, miR167g) revealed several small deletions and point mutations within the coding regions of four candidate genes (GRMZM2G390345, GRMZM2G342821, GRMZM2G105766 and GRMZM2G502560). To further investigate these candidate genes, knockout (Mutator) lines were used in an effort to recapitulate the ys3 phenotype. I characterized a GRMZM2G390345 mutant and determined that the mutation in GRMZM2G390345 did not cause the ys3 phenotype. For the three remaining candidate genes, GRMZM2G342821, GRMZM2G105766 and GRMZM2G502560 further analysis is needed. The closest homolog of OsTOM1 (an effluxer of muginieic acid) GRMZM2G603306 which, lies ~7 Mbp outside the linked marker, has also been suggested to be yellow stripe3. Preliminary sequence analysis uncovered a 4 bp insertion within the 9th exon of this gene that shifts the reading frame and leads to a premature stop codon. Three of the genes analyzed remain plausible candidates for yellow stripe3.
