Differential expression of dormancy-Associated genes in fastigiata and hypogaea peanut

Authors: M.F.C. Silva, C.R.C. Silva, L.M. Lima, JPC Ramos, and R.C. Santos

Seed dormancy is a temporary replacement state observed in some higher plants, which prevents germination under unfavorable conditions. In several species, dormancy process is triggered by hormonal factors, initiated by ABA and precursor enzymes. In this work, we investigated the relationship between dormancy and the expressio..

Cloning and functional analysis of the chitinase gene promoter in peanut

Authors: X.L. Chen, R.T. Song, M.Y. Yu, J.M. Sui, J.S. Wang and L.X. Qiao

Chitinase is an important pathogenesis-related protein in plants, and it can accumulate when induced by salicylic acid (SA) or other elicitors. Here, we found that chitinase mRNA levels were 4.5-times greater when peanut seedlings were sprayed with 1.5 mM SA, as compared to water. The upstream promoter sequence of the chitinas.. Read More»

Digital expression analysis of the genes associated with salinity resistance after overexpression of a stress-responsive small GTP-binding RabG protein in peanut

Authors: J.M. Sui, G. Li, G.X. Chen, M.Y. Yu, S.T. Ding, J.S. Wang and L.X. Qiao

The Rab protein family is the largest family of the small GTP-binding proteins. Among them, the RabG genes are known to be responsive to abiotic stresses, but the molecular mechanisms of the stress responses mediated by RabG genes in plants is poorly understood. To investigate the molecular mechanism of AhRabG gene in peanut, .. Read More»

Characterization of the �²-1,3-glucanase gene in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) by cloning and genetic transformation

Authors: L.X. Qiao, X. Ding, H.C. Wang, J.M. Sui and J.-S. Wang

Plant b-1,3-glucanases are commonly involved in disease resistance. This report describes the cloning and genetic transformation of a b-1,3-glucanase gene from peanut. The gene was isolated from both the genomic DNA and cDNA of peanut variety Huayu20 by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR), re.. Read More»
