Examination of the Abscission-Associated Transcriptomes for Soybean, Tomato, and Arabidopsis Highlights the Conserved Biosynthesis of an Extensible Extracellular Matrix and Boundary Layer
Joonyup Kim,Srivignesh Sundaresan,Sonia Philosoph-Hadas,Ronghui Yang,Shimon Meir,Mark L. Tucker +5 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that, in addition to cell wall loosening enzymes, abscission requires (or is enhanced by) biosynthesis and secretion of small proteins and waxes that form an extensible extracellular matrix and boundary layer on the surface of separating cells.
1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) concentration and ACC synthase expression in soybean roots, root tips, and soybean cyst nematode (Heterodera glycines)-infected roots
TL;DR: expression analysis of 17 ACC synthase (ACS) genes indicated that a select set of ACS genes is expressed in SCN-colonized root pieces that is clearly different from the set of genes expressed in non-colonsized roots or root tips, and semi-quantitative real-time PCR indicated that ACS transcript accumulation correlates with the high concentration of ACC in root tips.
Transcriptome Analysis of Soybean Leaf Abscission Identifies Transcriptional Regulators of Organ Polarity and Cell Fate
Joonyup Kim,Joonyup Kim,Jinyoung Yang,Ronghui Yang,Richard C. Sicher,Caren Chang,Mark L. Tucker +6 more
TL;DR: The abscission-specific expression of 5,206 soybean genes identified as encoding transcription factors (TFs) and their functional properties indicate that these TFs are involved in defining the separation cells and initiation of separation within the AZ by balancing organ polarity, roles of plant hormones, and cell differentiation.
A gene encoding a peptide with similarity to the plant IDA signaling peptide (AtIDA) is expressed most abundantly in the root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) soon after root infection.

TL;DR: A proposed role for the root-knot nematode IDL is discussed, which encodes a small, secreted peptide that putatively binds to two redundant receptor-like kinases that initiate a signal transduction pathway.
Gene Expression Profiling and Shared Promoter Motif for Cell Wall Modifying Proteins Expressed in Soybean Cyst Nematode Infected Roots
TL;DR: Gene expression patterns for several cell wall-modifying proteins were compared in multiple tissues undergoing major shifts in cell wall integrity and identified a motif (SCNbox1: WGCATGTG) common to several genes that were up-regulated in several different tissues.
