Regulation of plant root angle is critical for obtaining nutrients and water and is an important trait for plant breeding. A plant's final, long-term root angle is the net result of a complex series of decisions made by a root tip in response to changes in nutrient availability, impediments, the gravity vector and other stimuli. When a root tip is displaced from the gravity vector, the short-term process of gravitropism results in rapid reorientation of the root toward the vertical. Here, we explore both short- and long-term regulation of root growth angle, using natural variation in tomato to identify shared and separate genetic features of the two responses. Mapping of expression quantitative trait loci mapping and leveraging natural variation between and within species including Arabidopsis suggest a role for PURPLE ACID PHOSPHATASE 27 and CELL DIVISION CYCLE 73 in determining root angle.

A tool to design target-specific primers for polymerase chain reaction (PCR). It uses Primer3 to design PCR primers and then uses BLAST and global alignment algorithm to screen primers against user-selected database in order to avoid primer pairs (all combinations including forward-reverse primer pair, forward-forward as well as reverse-reverse pairs) that can cause non-specific amplifications.
View all literature mentionsA clade oriented, community curated database containing genomic, genetic, phenotypic and taxonomic information for plant genomes. Genomic information is presented in a comparative format and tied to important plant model species such as Arabidopsis. SGN provides tools such as: BLAST searches, the SolCyc biochemical pathways database, a CAPS experiment designer, an intron detection tool, an advanced Alignment Analyzer, and a browser for phylogenetic trees. The SGN code and database are developed as an open source project, and is based on database schemas developed by the GMOD project and SGN-specific extensions.
