Abstract:: ... Heat shock transcription factors (Hsfs) play a crucial role in plant growth and development, but the significance of Hsfs is not clearly understood in long-lived perennial plants. Here, two class A Hsf members (PsHsfA1c1 and PsHsfA7a1) were identified in Populus simonii, an important and pioneering species in northern China, using bioinformatics analysis and molecular cloning. Tissue-specific expr ...

Abstract:: ... Retrotransposons represent a major component of plant genomes; however, large-scale studies on their expression are rare. Massively parallel sequencing offers new analytical possibilities enabling a comprehensive study of retrotransposon RNA transcription. We evaluated the expression of long terminal repeat-retrotransposons in leaves of two sister hybrids Populus × canadensis (P. deltoides × P. ni ...

Abstract:: ... The basic leucine zipper (bZIP) family is one of the largest transcription factor (TF) families in plants, which play crucial roles in plant growth and development. bZIP proteins are involved in multiple biological processes, as well as responses to various biotic/abiotic stresses. Although genome-wide analysis of the bZIP gene family has been conducted in several plant species, only few comprehen ...

Abstract:: ... Stress-associated proteins (SAPs) are a novel class of zinc finger proteins that extensively participate in abiotic stress responses. To date, no overall analysis and expression profiling of SAP genes in woody plants have been reported. Populus euphratica is distributed in desert regions and is extraordinarily adaptable to abiotic stresses. Thus, it is regarded as a promising candidate for studyin ...

Abstract:: ... Platycladus orientalis (L.) is used extensively for afforestation and is a common medicinal ingredient. Because of its drought tolerance, P. orientalis is widely used for afforestation in arid and semi-arid areas. To better understand the mechanisms involved in drought-stress tolerance in this important tree, the transcriptome profiles of drought-treated P. orientalis seedlings were analyzed using ...

Abstract:: ... Demographic and environmental forces shape geographical patterns of genetic diversity. Knowledge thereof is not only important for evolutionary ecologists but, in light of future climate change, will be of interest to conservation biologists as well. Sugar pine (Pinus lambertiana Dougl.) is an ecologically important species found in mixed conifer forests across western North America. We applied a ...
