Plant development: YABBYs claw to the fore
نویسندگان
چکیده
The YABBY gene family was identified recently by homology to CRABS CLAW, a gene involved in carpel and nectary development in Arabidopsis. Several of the transcription factors encoded by the YABBY genes appear to have conserved roles in specifying abaxial cell fate in leaves, floral organs and ovules.

Fitness consequences of host plant choice : a fi eld experiment 542
Determining the relative contributions of diff erent ecological factors for herbivore fi tness is one key to understanding the ecology and evolution of host plant choice by herbivores. Natural enemies are increasingly being recognized as an important factor: host plants of inferior quality for development may still be used by herbivores if they provide enemy-free space (EFS). Here we used the t...
متن کاملGenome-Wide Study of YABBY Genes in Upland Cotton and Their Expression Patterns under Different Stresses
Members of the YABBY gene family, a small plant-specific family of genes, have been proposed to function in specifying abaxial cell fate. Although to date little has been learned about cotton YABBY genes, completion of the cotton genome enables a comprehensive genome-wide analysis of YABBY genes in cotton. Here, a total of 12, 12, and 23 YABBY genes were identified in Gossypium arboreum (2n = 2...
متن کاملFirst record of the genus Lethades Davis, 1897 from the Oriental region, with description of a new species (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae, Ctenopelmatinae)
A new species of the genus Lethades Davis, 1897 (Ctenopelmatinae: Pionini), Lethades orientalis Reshchikov & Xu, sp. n., collected in Heishiding Nature Reserve in Guangdong Province, China, is described. This is new record of the genus from China and for the Oriental region also. The species can be distinguished from all other species of the genus by its black metasoma, the presence of an areol...
متن کاملClinical and gross pathologic findings of complicated vertical fissures with digital dermatitis in a dairy herd
Careful antemortem examination and interpretation of findings, assisted by good clinical records, do much to throw light on the nature of vertical fissure in cattle. During an eight month period of investigation, 13 (3.2%) lame cows with vertical fissure out of 52 Holstein cows with different claw fissures were selected for clinical and gross pathological purposes in a commercial dairy farm wit...
متن کاملDevelopment of hand surgery services in Malaysia
Hand surgery in Malaysia began modestly with the correction of claw deformity in leprosy patients early in the last century, and began to evolve over the years into the treatment of injuries in plantation and industrial workers, at home and then in road crashes. With training of some of our surgeons in various overseas centres, particularly in the UK and then in USA and Singapore, hand and micr...
