Expansin gene expression and anoxic coleoptile elongation in rice cultivars.
Coleoptiles of rice seeds that germinate under anoxia usually elongate to a length far exceeding the elongation that takes place under aerobic conditions. It has been suggested that expansins play a role in this process, but studies examining correlations between transcript levels of expansin genes and anoxic growth of rice coleoptiles are limited. In this study, we used real-time quantitative ...
متن کاملThe Interrelationship between Promoter Strength, Gene Expression, and Growth Rate
In exponentially growing bacteria, expression of heterologous protein impedes cellular growth rates. Quantitative understanding of the relationship between expression and growth rate will advance our ability to forward engineer bacteria, important for metabolic engineering and synthetic biology applications. Recently, a work described a scaling model based on optimal allocation of ribosomes for...
متن کاملRegulation of expansin gene expression affects growth and development in transgenic rice plants.
To investigate the in vivo functions of expansins, we generated transgenic rice plants that express sense and antisense constructs of the expansin gene OsEXP4. In adult plants with constitutive OsEXP4 expression, 12% of overexpressors were taller and 88% were shorter than the average control plants, and most overexpressors developed at least two additional leaves. Antisense plants were shorter ...
متن کاملGenetic Correlation between Growth Rate and Litter Size in Mice.
UANTITATIVE geneticists have long been aware that correlated responses Q are common in populations under different types of selection. The primary implication of a correlated response is that the character under selection is genetically correlated with another character, though other parameters affect the magnitude of the correlated response. In the course of selection for a single trait, other...
متن کاملExpression of -Expansin and Expansin-Like Genes in Deepwater Rice
Previously, we have studied the expression and regulation of four and 14 -expansin genes in deepwater rice (Oryza sativa). We now report on the structure, expression, and regulation of 22 additional -expansin (Os-EXP) genes, four expansin-like (Os-EXPL) genes, and one expansin-related (Os-EXPR) gene, which have recently been identified in the expressed sequence tag and genomic databases of rice...
