Histone acetylation associated up-regulation of the cell wall related genes is involved in salt stress induced maize root swelling
TL;DR: Analysis of cell morphological alterations in maize roots as a consequence of excess salinity in relation to the transcriptional and epigenetic regulation of the cell wall related protein genes suggested that the up-regulation of somecell wall related genes mediated cell enlargement to possibly mitigate the salinity-induced ionic toxicity.
Single-walled carbon nanotubes selectively influence maize root tissue development accompanied by the change in the related gene expression
TL;DR: It is reported that single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) accelerate maize seminal root growth, but display little effect on the primaryroot growth, and gene transcription analysis shows that SWC NTs could increase the expression of seminal root associated genes whereas decrease root hair associated gene expression.

TL;DR: The results suggest that cold-mediated unsilencing of heterochromatic tandem-repeated sequences, accompanied with epigenetic regulation, might play an important role in the adaptation of plants to cold stimuli.

TL;DR: Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis reveals that dynamic histone acetylation change in the promoter region of cell cycle genes is involved in the control of gene expression in response to external stress, resulting in prolonged cell cycle duration and an inhibitory effect on growth and development in maize seedlings.
Promoter-associated histone acetylation is involved in the osmotic stress-induced transcriptional regulation of the maize ZmDREB2A gene.
TL;DR: It is suggested that osmotic stress activates the transcription of the ZmDREB2A gene by increasing the levels of acetylated histones H3K9 and H4K5 associated with the ZMDREb2A promoter region.
