Genes driving potato tuber initiation and growth: identification based on transcriptional changes using the POCI array (2008)

Kloosterman, Bjorn, De Koeyer, David, Griffiths, Rebecca, Flinn , Barry, Steuernagel, Burkhard, Scholz, Uwe, ...

The increasing amount of available expressed gene sequence data makes whole-transcriptome analysis of certain crop species possible. Potato currently has the second largest number of publicly...

Expression Analysis of a Family of nsLTP Genes Tissue Specifically Expressed throughout the Plant and during Potato Tuber Life Cycle1

Horvath, Beatrix M., Bachem, Christian W.B., Trindade, Luisa M., Oortwijn, Marian E.P., Visser, Richard G.F.

Non-specific lipid-transfer proteins (nsLTPs) are capable of binding lipid compounds in plant tissues and are coded by the nsLTP genes. Here, we present the analysis of expression of a family of...

Host-specific regulation of nodulation genes in Rhizobium is mediated by a plant-signal, interacting with the nodD gene product

Horvath, Beatrix, Bachem, Christian W. B., Schell, Jeff, Kondorosi, Adam

We have identified a nodD gene from the wide host-range Rhizobium strain MPIK3030 (termed nodD1) which is essential for nodulation on Macroptilium atropurpureum (siratro). Experiments with...

Unravelling enzymatic discoloration in potato through a combined approach of candidate genes, QTL, and expression analysis

Werij, Jeroen S., Kloosterman, Bjorn, Celis-Gamboa, Carolina, America, Twan, Visser, Richard G.F., ...

Enzymatic discoloration (ED) of potato tubers was investigated in an attempt to unravel the underlying genetic factors. Both enzyme and substrate concentration have been reported to influence the...

EBP1 regulates organ size through cell growth and proliferation in plants

Horváth, Beatrix M, Magyar, Zoltán, Zhang, Yuexing, Hamburger, Anne W, Bakó, László, Visser, Richard G F, ...

Plant organ size shows remarkable uniformity within species indicating strong endogenous control. We have identified a plant growth regulatory gene, functionally and structurally homologous to human...
