The DNA segments that carry this genetic information are called genes, and their location within the genome are referred to as genetic loci, but other DNA sequences have structural purposes, or are involved in regulating the use of this genetic information.
13 mar 2015 · Like all living organisms, plants use deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) as their genetic material. The DNA in plant cells is found in the nucleus, the mitochondria and the chloroplasts. The latter two organelles are descendants of bacteria that were captured by a eukaryotic cell and have become endosymbionts. DNA is a coded set of instructions for ...
10 paź 2008 · Many of the A. thaliana and O. sativa unique genes are conserved in plants for which the ancestor diverged at least 725 million years ago (MYA). Half of these genes are also present in other eukaryotic and/or prokaryotic species.
2 lut 2021 · This review discusses the features of cis-regulatory sequences in plants, technologies enabling their identification, characterization, and validation, their organization into functional cis-regulatory modules, their genomic distributions with respect to target genes, and the role of transposable elements in their evolution.
In plants, DNA resides primarily within the cell nucleus, organized into structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome contains numerous genes, which are sequences of nucleotides that code for specific proteins responsible for various traits and functions within the plant.
20 lip 2020 · Here we review the growth of pan-genomics in plants, explore the origins of gene presence and absence variation, and show how pan-genomes can support plant breeding and evolution studies.
19 paź 2020 · Here, we describe how plant genomes have been harnessed for studies of plant phylogeny and diversification, with examples spanning all green plants, a clade of nearly half a million species spanning nearly a billion years of evolutionary time.
