Plant survival necessitates constant monitoring of fluctuating light and balancing growth demands with adaptive responses, tasks mediated via interconnected sensing and signaling networks. Photoreceptor phytochrome B (phyB) and plastidial retrograde signaling metabolite methylerythritol cyclodiphosphate (MEcPP) are evolutionarily conserved sensing and signaling components eliciting responses through unknown connection(s). Here, via a suppressor screen, we identify two phyB mutant alleles that revert the dwarf and high salicylic acid phenotypes of the high MEcPP containing mutant ceh1. Biochemical analyses show high phyB protein levels in MEcPP-accumulating plants resulting from reduced expression of phyB antagonists and decreased auxin levels. We show that auxin treatment negatively regulates phyB abundance. Additional studies identify CAMTA3, a MEcPP-activated calcium-dependent transcriptional regulator, as critical for maintaining phyB abundance. These studies provide insights into biological organization fundamentals whereby a signal from a single plastidial metabolite is transduced into an ensemble of regulatory networks controlling the abundance of phyB, positioning plastids at the information apex directing adaptive responses.

A web-based tool and database for the gene ontology analysis. Its focus is on agricultural species and is user-friendly. The agriGO is designed to provide deep support to agricultural community in the realm of ontology analysis. Compared to other available GO analysis tools, unique advantages and features of agriGO are: # The agriGO especially focuses on agricultural species. It supports 45 species and 292 datatypes currently. And agriGO is designed as an user-friendly web server. # New tools including PAGE (Parametric Analysis of Gene set Enrichment), BLAST4ID (Transfer IDs by BLAST) and SEACOMPARE (Cross comparison of SEA) were developed. The arrival of these tools provides users with possibilities for data mining and systematic result exploration and will allow better data analysis and interpretation. # The exploratory capability and result visualization are enhanced. Results are provided in different formats: HTML tables, tabulated text files, hierarchical tree graphs, and flash bar graphs. # In agriGO, PAGE and SEACOMPARE can be used to carry out cross-comparisons of results derived from different data sets, which is very important when studying multiple groups of experiments, such as in time-course research.

View all literature mentionsThe mission of the Arabidopsis Biological Resource Center (ABRC) is to acquire, preserve and distribute seed and DNA resources that are useful to the Arabidopsis research community. More than 100,000 stocks are shipped annually to researchers in more than 60 countries, and modest fees for stocks are charged. The ABRC database functions and ordering system are incorporated into The Arabidopsis Information Resource (TAIR). Researchers can obtain information about Arabidopsis, perform stock searches, order stocks, and view current and past orders. Sponsors: ABRC is supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. 0542034.
