Bartzis G, Peeters C, Ligterink W, van Eeuwijk F
BMC Bioinformatics . 2024 May; 25(1):202. PMID: 38816801
Intoduction: In systems biology, an organism is viewed as a system of interconnected molecular entities. To understand the functioning of organisms it is essential to integrate information about the variations...

Sterken M, Nijveen H, van Zanten M, Jimenez-Gomez J, Geshnizjani N, Willems L, et al.
Theor Appl Genet . 2023 Feb; 136(2):28. PMID: 36810666
Seeds are essential for plant reproduction, survival, and dispersal. Germination ability and successful establishment of young seedlings strongly depend on seed quality and on environmental factors such as nutrient availability....

Oyserman B, Flores S, Griffioen T, Pan X, van der Wijk E, Pronk L, et al.
Nat Commun . 2022 Jun; 13(1):3228. PMID: 35710629
Microbiomes play a pivotal role in plant growth and health, but the genetic factors involved in microbiome assembly remain largely elusive. Here, we map the molecular features of the rhizosphere...

Jansma S, Sergeeva L, Tikunov Y, Kohlen W, Ligterink W, Rieu I
Front Plant Sci . 2022 Apr; 13:828743. PMID: 35481151
Exposure to high temperatures leads to failure in pollen development, which may have significant implications for food security with ongoing climate change. We hypothesized that the stress response-associated hormone salicylic...

Neto V, de Castro R, Lima B, Vieira C, Rosario N, Fernandez L, et al.
Plant Physiol Biochem . 2021 Jun; 166:20-30. PMID: 34087742
We have characterized the NF-YB gene family in R. communis using bioinformatics, ecotopic expression, and transcriptomics. A total of 14 RcNF-YB genes were identified in R. communis genome using the...

Singh V, Zemach H, Shabtai S, Aloni R, Yang J, Zhang P, et al.
Front Plant Sci . 2021 Feb; 11:609923. PMID: 33552103
Sweetpotato is an important food crop globally, serving as a rich source of carbohydrates, vitamins, fiber, and micronutrients. Sweetpotato yield depends on the modification of adventitious roots into storage roots....
7.
Hartanto M, Joosen R, Snoek B, Willems L, Sterken M, de Ridder D, et al.
G3 (Bethesda) . 2020 Sep; 10(11):4215-4226. PMID: 32963085
Seed germination is characterized by a constant change of gene expression across different time points. These changes are related to specific processes, which eventually determine the onset of seed germination....

Geshnizjani N, Snoek B, Willems L, Rienstra J, Nijveen H, Hilhorst H, et al.
Plant Cell Environ . 2020 May; 43(8):1973-1988. PMID: 32419153
Seed quality and seedling establishment are the most important factors affecting successful crop development. They depend on the genetic background and are acquired during seed maturation and therefor, affected by...

Marques A, Buijs G, Ligterink W, Hilhorst H
Funct Plant Biol . 2020 Apr; 45(11):1083-1095. PMID: 32290970
Desiccation sensitive (DS) seeds do not survive dry storage due to their lack of desiccation tolerance. Almost half of the plant species in tropical rainforests produce DS seeds and therefore...

Flood P, Theeuwen T, Schneeberger K, Keizer P, Kruijer W, Severing E, et al.
Nat Plants . 2020 Jan; 6(1):13-21. PMID: 31932677
Assessment of the impact of variation in chloroplast and mitochondrial DNA (collectively termed the plasmotype) on plant phenotypes is challenging due to the difficulty in separating their effect from nuclear-derived...
