MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) regulate gene expression in eukaryotes. Plant miRNAs modulate their targets mainly via messenger RNA (mRNA) cleavage. Small RNA targets have been extensively investigated in Arabidopsis using computational prediction, experimental validation, an...

Male sterility is an important trait in hybrid crop breeding. Thermo-sensitive genic male sterility (TGMS) lines, which are male-sterile at restrictive (high) temperatures but convert to male-fertile at permissive (low) temperatures, have been widely utilized in two-line hybrid rice breeding3. Howev...

Transposable elements (TEs) and repetitive sequences comprise over 40% of rice genome. Different TEs are tightly regulated by distinct epigenetic mechanisms. For example, the activities of LTR retrotransposon Tos17 and non-LTR retrotransposon LINE element Karma are uniquely regulated by histone H3K9...

Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is a widespread mechanism for gene regulation and has been implicated in flowering, but the molecular basis governing the choice of a specific poly(A) site during the vegetative-to-reproductive growth transition remains unclear. Here we characterize HLP1, an hnRNP A...

In this study, we analyzed the Arabidopsis homologue of PRMT5, AtPRMT5M-bM-^@M-^Ys function in RNA processing. RNA-seq analyses revealed that AtPRMT5 is involved in a subset of pre-mRNA splicing. Several RNA processing factors involved in regulating flowering time were validated that the correspondi...

Nuclear-localized RNA binding proteins are involved in various aspects of RNA metabolism, which in turn modulates gene expression. However, the functions of nuclear-localized RNA binding proteins in plants are poorly understood. Here we report the functions of two proteins containing RNA recognition...

RELATIVE OF EARLY FLOWERING 6 (REF6, also known as JMJ12) counteracts Polycomb mediated gene silencing through demethylating histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) in Arabidopsis. Genome-wide analysis has demonstrated that REF6 dependent H3K37me3 demethylation occurs on hundreds of genes. Ho...
