Genes
- AtOGG1
- A DNA glycosylase/apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) lyase that is involved in base excision repair for eliminating 8-oxo-G from DNA.
- The transcript of AtOGG1 was detected in seeds, and it was strongly up-regulated during seed desiccation and imbibition.
Review Articles
Good for background information and broad concepts.
Review Articles
- Genome-wide identification of EMBRYO-DEFECTIVE (EMB) genes required for growth and development in Arabidopsis Meinke et al. 2019 Review Article
- "Here, I highlight my 40-year effort to isolate and characterize the most common class of mutants encountered in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana): those defective in embryo development."
Methodology
- Computational and experimental analysis identifies Arabidopsis genes specifically expressed during early seed development Becerra et al. 2006 Methodology
- "The goal of this study was to explore the feasibility of incorporating the available online bioinformatics databases to discover Arabidopsis genes specifically expressed in certain organs, in our case immature seeds."
- Gene expression atlas of embryo development in Arabidopsis Gao et al. 2019 Methodology
- "The resulting RNA-seq datasets identify distinct overlapping patterns of gene expression, as well as temporal shifts in gene activity across embryogenesis."
- "Methylation related gene expression was associated with early- and middle-stage embryos, initiation of photosynthesis components with the late embryogenesis stage, and storage/energy-related protein activation with late and mature embryos."
Data Articles
- Datasets of seed mucilage traits for Arabidopsis thaliana natural accessions with atypical outer mucilage Cambert et al. 2021 Data Article
- "This data will be a rich resource for genetic, biochemical, structural and functional analyses investigating mucilage constituent polysaccharides or their role as adaptive traits."
- Analysis of gene expression patterns during seed coat development in Arabidopsis Dean et al. 2011 Research Article
- "Global expression datasets that can be used for identification of new gene candidates for seed coat development were generated."
- "These dataset provide a comprehensive expression profile for developing seed coats in Arabidopsis, and should provide a useful resource and reference for other seed systems."
