How can synthetic promoters alter plants system? A. Introduction of a heterologous DNA into plants directly manipulates the regulatory elements or expression of endogenous genes. B. Development of a phytosensor combined with signal transduction pathway activates signal to detect pathogens. C. Utilization of an engineered DNA - binding domains and catalytic effector results to modified signal responses.

in flowering control of plant, describe a situation wherein there are mutations in at least one or all of the genes responsible for control of the floral development.
Suppose a geneticist introduced a small interfering RNA (siRNA) that was complementary to the FLC mRNA in Figure 17.3. What would be the effect on flowering of Arabidopsis? Explain your answer.
What is a meristem? Explain the role of meristems in plant development.
The expression of ABC genes______ . a. occurs in layers of an onion b. controls flower formation c. causes mutations in flowers
1a.Discovery of genes controlling Gibberellic Acid (GA) synthesis and perception became very important during the Green Revolution, and remain important today. Why? Select one: a. Mutants with reduced GA levels are dwarfs. Many dwarf plants were important for the Green Revolution because the shorter plants can invest more energy into economically important parts like seeds (instead of stem length). b. Mutants with reduced GA levels are more resistant to herbivore damage (like caterpillars), increasing plant yields. c. Mutants with reduced GA levels allowed farmers to control fruit ripening more accurately. d. Mutants with reduced GA levels have increased photosynthesis 1b. What features are important for overall plant form? Select one: a. Iterative development and capillary action b. Iterative development and apical dominance c. Apical dominance and stomatal conductance d. Phyllotaxis and capillary action
Can modifying plants genetically protect crops from herbivores and pathogens?
Plants and animals usually battle each other; describe why and how this occurs. Once animal-pollinated flowers evolved, a new type of plant–animal interaction was possible; describe it. How is it possible for a mutation in aplant to be beneficial for both the plant and for an animal?
Suppose, you want to delete or suppress a gene called ‘X’ in a plant so that the plant becomes drought resistance. Please explain in details how you can conduct the process.
When grown in a greenhouse, the leaves of Aloe nobilis are green. When found in the desert in the wild, however, the leaves are often red. What BEST explains this observation? A. The environment affects the expression of A. nobilis genes. B. The sun changes the color of chlorophyll pigments. C. The plant uses red pigments for photosynthesis. D. The leaves become infected with a red parasite.
Can 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.
