Textbook Question
Chapter 14, Problem 13P
The CBF genes of Arabidopsis are induced by exposure of the plants to low temperature.
How would you examine the temporal and spatial patterns of expression after induction by low temperature?
Can you design a method that would reveal these changes in gene expression in a way that a farmer could recognize them by observing plants growing in the field?

Many plants increase in freezing tolerance upon exposure to low nonfreezing
temperatures. Rye, for instance, is killed by freezing at about -5°C, but after a period
of exposure to low nonfreezing temperature can survive freezing down to about
-30°C. When exposed to low temperatures, plants exhibit an increased expression
of certain cold-induced genes that function to stabilize cell membranes against
freeze-induced injury. The ability of an individual plant to develop freezing tolerance
is best described as an example of:
O Acclimation
Allopatric speciation
O Mutation
Genetic drift
OAdaptation
Freeze-induced cellular dehydration

- You conduct an experiment to study the expression of the S protein through the tissues of your favorite plant (Arabidopsis thaliana). The morning of the experiment you inject in the leaves a messenger RNA that codes for the synthesis of a single protein made of two parts that are attached to each other: the functional S protein and a red fluorescent protein tag (RFP). You perform two cross sections of the same root, one section at the start of the experiment (time = Oh; corresponding to the time of injection) and one section in the afternoon (time = 8h). Through fluorescent microscopy you observe a change in the coloration inside the cells of the root's central tissues (as indicated by the arrows): from no coloration (time = Oh) to red (time = 8h). • The cells of the central tissues in the roots do not have nuclei or ribosomes. How can you explain this change of coloration? Please provide a cellular feature that can lead to this. • What is one advantage of using an RFP-tag in an mRNA?…arrow_forwardIn roses, the synthesis of red pigment is produced by two steps in a pathway. gene O magenta intermediate - gene P colorless intermediate- red pigment What would the phenotype be of a plant homozygous for a null mutation of gene P?

This suggests that plants measure the length of night, and not the length of day. If the pulse of light during the night was blue light instead of full spectrum light, what would be the flowering time response of a plant with a knockout in cry2 (relative to wild type in the same conditions)? Explain.arrow_forward

(c) In developing flowers of dioecious Spinach and Thalictrum, stamens are not developed in female flowers, and carpels are not developed in male flowers. What is the simplest model of ABC class gene expression that might explain this?arrow_forwardBoll weevil is a serious pest of cotton crop. Effective control involves applications of chemical insecticides, increasing the cost of production and environmental pollution. The current genetically modified Bt crops have allowed great benefits to farmers but show activity limited to lepidopteran pests. This work reports on procedures adopted for integration and expression of a cry transgene conferring resistance to boll weevil and fall armyworm by using molecular tools. Four Brazilian cotton cultivars were microinjected with a minimal linear cassette generating 1248 putative lines. Complete gene integration was found in only one line (TO-34) containing one copy of crylla detected by Southern blot. Protein was expressed in high concentration at 45 davs after emergence (dae), decreasing by approximately 50% at 90 dae. Toxicity of the cry protein was demonstrated in feeding bioassays revealing 56.7% mortality to boll weevil fed buds and 88.1% mortality to fall armyworm fed leaves.

- You are a developmental geneticist studying flowering time variation in Arabidopsis. You perform a mutagenesis screen to identify mutants in the photoperiod pathway. You conduct the screen and find two different plants that show the same mutant phenotype. You then use a complementation test. What is the predicted outcome of this test if both phenotypes are caused by mutations in separate genes? recover the wild type phenotype overexpress the gene O recover the mutant phenotypearrow_forwardCan you solve all the parts to this question please a) What is the role of the LEAFY gene in floral development? (b) What is the phenotype of the leafy mutant? (c) Most of the ABC program genes are directly regulated by the transcription factor LEAFY (LFY). Still, LFY is expressed broadly throughout the floral meristem when the discrete A, B, and C domains are established. Discuss how this single broadly expressed transcription factor can generate distinct domains of ABC gene expression. Feel free to use diagrams.arrow_forwardThe floral homeotic genes of Arabidopsis belong to the MADS-box gene family, while in Drosophila, homeotic genes belong to the homeobox gene family. In both Arabidopsis and Drosophila, members of the Polycomb gene family control expression of these divergent homeotic genes.
