The bulbil is an important vegetative reproductive organ in triploid Lilium lancifolium whose development is promoted by cytokinins. Type-B response regulators (RRs) are critical regulators that mediate primary cytokinin responses and promote cytokinin-induced gene expression. However, the function of cytokinin type-B Arabidopsis RRs (ARRs) in regulating bulbil formation is unclear. In this study, we identified five type-B LlRRs, LlRR1, LlRR2, LlRR10, LlRR11 and LlRR12, in L. lancifolium for the first time. The five LlRRs encode proteins of 715, 675, 573, 582 and 647 amino acids. All of the regulators belong to the B-I subfamily, whose members typically contain a conserved CheY-homologous receiver (REC) domain and an Myb DNA-binding (MYB) domain at the N-terminus. As transcription factors, all five type-B LlRRs localize at the nucleus and are widely expressed in plant tissues, especially during axillary meristem (AM) formation. Functional analysis showed that type-B LlRRs are involved in bulbil formation in a functionally redundant manner and can activate LlRR9 expression. In summary, our study elucidates the process by which cytokinins regulate bulbil initiation in L. lancifolium through type-B LlRRs and lays a foundation for research on the molecular mechanism of bulbil formation in the lily.

This is a list of tools and resources that we have found mentioned in this publication.


GenBank (tool)

RRID:SCR_002760

NIH genetic sequence database that provides annotated collection of all publicly available DNA sequences for almost 280 000 formally described species (Jan 2014) .These sequences are obtained primarily through submissions from individual laboratories and batch submissions from large-scale sequencing projects, including whole-genome shotgun (WGS) and environmental sampling projects. Most submissions are made using web-based BankIt or standalone Sequin programs, and GenBank staff assigns accession numbers upon data receipt. It is part of International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration and daily data exchange with European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) and DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ) ensures worldwide coverage. GenBank is accessible through NCBI Entrez retrieval system, which integrates data from major DNA and protein sequence databases along with taxonomy, genome, mapping, protein structure and domain information, and biomedical journal literature via PubMed. BLAST provides sequence similarity searches of GenBank and other sequence databases. Complete bimonthly releases and daily updates of GenBank database are available by FTP.

Semi-Manual Alignment to Reference Templates (tool)

RRID:SCR_019265

Software tool that extends WholeBrain framework in R for segmenting and registering experimental images to Allen Mouse Common Coordinate Framework (CCF). Streamlines processing of large volumetric LSFM datasets and solves issues with non-uniform morphing across anterior-posterior axis with interactive “choice game.” Accounts for duplicate cell counts in adjacent z images and presents new ways to easily parse apart and interactively visualize final mapped datasets.
