Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Functional genomics is a young discipline whose origin can be traced back to the late 1980s and early 1990s, when molecular tools became available to determine the cellular functions of genes. Today, functional genomics is p- ceived as the analysis, often large-scale, that bridges the structure and organi- tion of genomes and the assessment of gene function. The completion in 2000 of the genome sequence of Arabidopsis thaliana has created a number of new and exciting challenges in plant functional genomics. The immediate task for the plant biology community is to establish the functions of the approximately 25,000 genes present in this model plant. One major issue that will remain even after this formidable task is c- pleted is establishing to what degree our understanding of the genome of one model organism, such as the dicot Arabidopsis, provides insight into the or- nization and function of genes in other plants. The genome sequence of rice, completed in 2002 as a result of the synergistic interaction of the private and public sectors, promises to significantly enrich our knowledge of the general organization of plant genomes. However, the tools available to investigate gene function in rice are lagging behind those offered by other model plant systems. Approaches available to investigate gene function become even more limited for plants other than the model systems of Arabidopsis, rice, and maize.

Download or read book Comparative Functional Genomics of the SABATH Family of Methyltransferases in Plants written by Nan Zhao and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Known members of the plant SABATH family of methyltransferases (MTs) have important biological functions by methylating hormones, signaling molecules and other metabolites. This dissertation aims to systematically investigate the biochemical and biological functions and evolution of SABATH genes in plants. The genomes of rice and poplar have been fully sequenced, which provides unprecedented opportunities for cross-species comparison of the SABATH family. Using a comparative genomic approach, 41 and 33 SABATH genes were identified in rice and poplar, respectively. The expression of these genes in different tissue was analyzed using RT-PCR approach and some genes highly expressed in multiple tissues were cloned. The cloned cDNAs were expressed in E. coli to produce enzymes. Recombinant proteins were tested with a large number of compounds for MT activities. In poplar, two proteins were determined to have MT activities with indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and jasmonic acid (JA), respectively. Biochemical and gene expression evidence suggests that poplar IAMT (PtIAMT1) has an important role in poplar development through IAA methylation. Poplar JMT (PtJBMT1) shows high levels of expression at multiple tissues under normal conditions, and the expression of PtJBMT1 was slightly induced by wounding and methyl jasmonate treatment, suggesting it has a role in poplar development and defense. Two SABATH genes, IAMT (OsIAMT1) and BSMT (OsBSMT1), were identified in rice. The high level of OsIAMT1 transcripts in rice roots and panicles implies that OsIAMT1 is involved in root and panicle development. OsBSMT1 has MT activities with both salicylic acid and benzoic acid. The specific induction of OsBSMT1 by herbivory and enhanced emission of methylsalicylate support that it has a specific role in plant response to insects. The evolution of the SABATH gene family was also investigated based on the identified SABATH genes in plants using comparative genomics analysis. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that IAMTs in Arabidopsis, rice and poplar are highly conserved, suggesting IAMTs are evolutionarily ancient. However, SAMTs in these plant species are divergent, indicating it is possible that SAMTs were evolved after the split of these plant lineages.

Download or read book From Functional Genomics to Biotechnology in Ornamental Plants written by Swee-Suak Ko and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2019-07-12 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries plants of a broad taxonomical background have been bred and commercialized because of the beauty of their flowers. However, until recently genomic analyses of ornamentals remained a challenge because of their large genome sizes and high ploidy levels. In the last decade, increasingly affordable sequencing technologies and powerful bioinformatic approaches resulted in the complete sequencing of several horticultural species genomes and the characterization of their transcriptomes. These developments enabled research on many challenging topics. This Research Topic gives you a primer into them by featuring a broad range of original research contributions on some of the most active areas of ornamental plant research: the genetic basis of flower morphology, scent, and color, the genetic regulation of physiology as well as the epigenetic factors affecting vegetative development. In this context, one of the most significant hurdles to functional genetic studies in ornamentals is achieving efficient genetic transformation. Several articles in this Research Topic describe strategies to tackle this challenge and present insights into the way transgene activity renders novel flower phenotypes.
