Identification of Differentially Expressed Genes in Axillary Tillers of Perennial Ryegrass

Identification of Differentially Expressed Genes of Perennial Ryegrass Under Drought Stress

Numerous molecular responses of plants to drought stress have been observed in different plant species. A large number of genes with diverse functions in drought tolerance have been identified in model plants. The products of these droughtinducible genes are classified into two groups: functional proteins or regulatory proteins. Genes involved in plant drought tolerance can be identified throug...

Identification of genes associated with cold acclimation in perennial ryegrass.

Cold acclimation dramatically increases freezing tolerance in many temperate plant species. An understanding of cold acclimation is important for extending adaptation areas of perennial ryegrass. Freezing tolerance is greatly increased in perennial ryegrass cv. 'Caddyshack' after cold acclimation. Genes differentially regulated during cold acclimation were identified by analyzing the abundance ...

Variation in the expression of ergot alkaloids between individual tillers of perennial ryegrass

Epichloë fungal endophytes of cool season grasses are well-known to produce a range of alkaloids of benefit to the host. Some of these compounds are advantageous to agriculture due to qualities that promote pasture persistence (e.g., the loline class of alkaloids confer insect protection) while others are detrimental to the well-being of grazing livestock. The ergot alkaloids (e.g., ergovaline)...

Association of Candidate Genes With Submergence Response in Perennial Ryegrass

Perennial ryegrass is a popular cool-season grass species due to its high quality for forage and turf. The objective of this study was to identify associations of candidate genes with growth and physiological traits to submergence stress and recovery after de-submergence in a global collection of 94 perennial ryegrass accessions. Accessions varied largely in leaf color, plant height (HT), leaf ...
