  2. 11. Cold Acclimation in oats and other plants: Dissecting low temperature responses using a comparative genomic approach

    Author : Marcus Bräutigam; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cold acclimation; oat; EST; microarray; transcriptome; chilling; freezing; rice; Arabidopsis; TILLING; mutation;

    Abstract : Cold acclimation protects plants from temperate regions of the world from the deleterious effects of low and freezing temperatures. This is through a series of transcriptional, regulatory and metabolic changes that enable continued growth and survival. READ MORE

  4. 12. Unravelling the complexity of cold acclimation in plants

    Author : Aakash Chawade; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bioinformatics; cold acclimation; winter; oat; arabidopsis; stress; freezing; genetic networks; metabolomics;

    Abstract : Many plants respond to low non-freezing temperatures by increasing their freezing tolerance in a process known as cold acclimation. Microarray studies have shown that hundreds of genes are differentially expressed during the cold acclimation process in Arabidopsis. READ MORE

  5. 13. Dissecting the gene regulatory networks behind carbon allocation in plants : ex situ studies on combinatorial and subdomains effects of seed transcription factors

    Author : Per Snell; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Plants store excess energy and metabolites derived from photosynthesis in a variety of storage compounds with starch, protein and triacyglycerol (oil, TAG) being the most common. As humans, we are completely dependent on these compounds either directly as food or indirectly, as materials for large number of goods or feed for animals. READ MORE

  6. 14. Plant Oxylipins and Lipid Transfer Proteins in Defense : - It’s all about the fat

    Author : Per Fahlberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Oxylipins, the oxygenated metabolites of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), are found in many eukaryotic organisms. In plants, several enzymes can produce different types of oxylipins, and the chloroplast structural galactolipids mono- and digalactosyl diacylglycerol (MGDG and DGDG, respectively) are examples of sources of substrate PUFAs.
