Animal and Plant Cell Structure

45.3K
Animal and plant cells not only differ in their structure, function, and mode of nutrition but also in how they reproduce, specialize, and organize into complex structures.
Cell Division
Though both plant and animal cells divide by mitosis (for non-gametic cells) and meiosis (for gametic cells), they differ in the specifics of this process. Unlike animal cells, plant cells lack centrosomes — an organelle responsible for organizing the spindle fibers and segregating the chromosomes during...

Trihybrid Crosses
Some of Mendel’s crosses examined three pairs of contrasting characteristics. Such a cross is called a trihybrid cross. A trihybrid cross is a combination of three individual monohybrid crosses. For example, plant height (tall vs. short), seed shape (round vs. wrinkled), and seed color (yellow vs. green).
The F1 generation plants of a trihybrid cross are heterozygous for all three traits and produce eight gametes. Upon self-fertilization, these gametes have an equal...

Transgenic Plants

8.3K
Recombinant DNA technology called transgenesis is often used to add a foreign gene or remove a detrimental gene from an organism. Such genetically modified organisms are called transgenic organisms.
The first-ever transgenic plant was a tobacco plant developed in 1983 that showed resistance against the tobacco mosaic virus. Since then, many transgenic plants have been developed and commercialized for improving the agricultural, ornamental, and horticultural value of a crop plant. Transgenic...

Additional Subnuclear Structures02:10

Additional Subnuclear Structures

5.1K
The eukaryotic nucleus is a double membrane-bound organelle that contains nearly all of the cell’s genetic material in the form of chromosomes. It is rightly called the “brain” of the cell as it shoulders the responsibility of responding to various physiological processes, stress, altered metabolic conditions, and other cellular signals. 
The nucleus contains many membrane-less subnuclear organelles or nuclear bodies, such as nucleoli, Cajal bodies, speckles,...

Area of Science:

  • Plant genetics
  • Cytogenetics
  • Nuclear architecture

Background:

  • The nucleus architecture of hybrid crops is under-researched but crucial for genetic stability and trait expression.
  • Understanding spatial chromatin organization in hybrids is key to crop improvement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the spatial distribution of introgressed maize chromatin in oat × maize addition lines.
  • To analyze how the number of added maize chromosomes influences nuclear organization.

Main Methods:

  • Genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) to confirm chromosome additions and visualize maize chromatin.
  • 3-D nuclear analysis of root and leaf tissues.
  • Maize chromosome-specific simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for chromosome identification.

Main Results:

  • Introgressed maize chromosome territories (CTs) were predominantly found at the nuclear periphery in all analyzed lines.
  • Maize CT association varied: prevalent in double disomic lines, while CT separation was common in double monosomic lines.
  • Maize CTs in leaf nuclei were positioned closer to the nuclear center compared to root nuclei.

Conclusions:

  • The number of added maize chromosomes influences the spatial arrangement of chromatin within oat × maize hybrids.
  • Nuclear positioning of introgressed chromatin differs between root and leaf tissues.
  • These findings contribute to understanding nucleus architecture in plant hybrids.
