(KCS).2) Several KCS genes from higher plants have been identified, e.g., Arabidopsis thaliana E4El, CU71I, and KCSI,3-5) Simmondsia chinensis Gojoba) Kes,6) Brcmssica nupus (rape) KCS,'} and Limnanthes dougldsii (meadowfoam) E4E.S) The A4EI gene of A. thaiiana, for example, encodes a seed-specific fatty acid elongase which extends the 18 and 20 carbon acyl chains to 20 and 22, respectively.3) In thalli of M, polymorpha the rnajor long chain fatty acids are 18:1 (oleic acid), 18:2 (linoleic acid), 18:3 (linolenic a id), 20:4 (arachidonic acid),

Gene organization of the liverwort Y chromosome reveals distinct sex chromosome evolution in a haploid system.
Y chromosomes are different from other chromosomes because of a lack of recombination. Until now, complete sequence information of Y chromosomes has been available only for some primates, although considerable information is available for other organisms, e.g., several species of Drosophila. Here, we report the gene organization of the Y chromosome in the dioecious liverwort Marchantia polymorp...
متن کاملThe Naming of Names: Guidelines for Gene Nomenclature in Marchantia
While Marchantia polymorpha has been utilized as a model system to investigate fundamental biological questions for over almost two centuries, there is renewed interest in M. polymorpha as a model genetic organism in the genomics era. Here we outline community guidelines for M. polymorpha gene and transgene nomenclature, and we anticipate that these guidelines will promote consistency and reduc...
متن کاملIdentification of miRNAs and Their Targets in the Liverwort Marchantia polymorpha by Integrating RNA-Seq and Degradome Analyses
Bryophytes (liverworts, hornworts and mosses) comprise the three earliest diverging lineages of land plants (embryophytes). Marchantia polymorpha, a complex thalloid Marchantiopsida liverwort that has been developed into a model genetic system, occupies a key phylogenetic position. Therefore, M. polymorpha is useful in studies aiming to elucidate the evolution of gene regulation mechanisms in p...
متن کاملAgrobacterium-mediated transformation of the haploid liverwort Marchantia polymorpha L., an emerging model for plant biology.
Agrobacterium-mediated transformation has not been practical in pteridophytes, bryophytes and algae to date, although it is commonly used in model plants including Arabidopsis and rice. Here we present a rapid Agrobacterium-mediated transformation system for the haploid liverwort Marchantia polymorpha L. using immature thalli developed from spores. Hundreds of hygromycin-resistant plants per sp...
متن کاملTransformation of Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) Plants with Sense and Antisense Constructs of the Fatty Acid Elongase Gene
The biosynthetic pathways of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids consist of many steps controlled by various enzymes. One of the methods for improving oil quality is to change the fatty acid profile through genetic manipulation which requires isolation and characterization of the genes and other cis-acting elements, such as the promoter, involved in fatty acid biosynthesis. b-ketoacyl-CoA syn...
