“…MIKCtype MADS-box genes are involved in virtually all aspects of plant development, including root, flower, seed and embryo development (Gramzow & Theissen, 2010). They have also been reported to be involved in different stress responses (Arora et al, 2007;Jia et al, 2018;Wei et al, 2018). Thus, understanding MIKC-type MADS-box genes is important for understanding plant development, which is in turn crucial for plant breeding and crop improvement (Boden & Østergaard, 2019).…”

Summary Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is one of the most important crops worldwide. Given a growing global population coupled with increasingly challenging cultivation conditions, facilitating wheat breeding by fine‐tuning important traits is of great importance. MADS‐box genes are prime candidates for this, as they are involved in virtually all aspects of plant development. Here, we present a detailed overview of phylogeny and expression of 201 wheat MIKC‐type MADS‐box genes. Homoeolog retention is significantly above the average genome‐wide retention rate for wheat genes, indicating that many MIKC‐type homoeologs are functionally important and not redundant. Gene expression is generally in agreement with the expected subfamily‐specific expression pattern, indicating broad conservation of function of MIKC‐type genes during wheat evolution. We also found extensive expansion of some MIKC‐type subfamilies, especially those potentially involved in adaptation to different environmental conditions like flowering time genes. Duplications are especially prominent in distal telomeric regions. A number of MIKC‐type genes show novel expression patterns and respond, for example, to biotic stress, pointing towards neofunctionalization. We speculate that conserved, duplicated and neofunctionalized MIKC‐type genes may have played an important role in the adaptation of wheat to a diversity of conditions, hence contributing to the importance of wheat as a global staple food.

“…All of these floral-enriched HbMADS-box genes are regulated by hormone, salt, cold, high-temperature, and drought stresses. This study demonstrates that HbMad-box genes may be multifunctional regulators, and are mainly involved in the maintenance of floral organ and inflorescence development [12].…”

Green plants provide the foundation for the structure, function, and interactions among organisms in both tropical and temperate zones. To date, many investigations have revealed patterns and mechanisms that generate plant diversity at various scales and from diverse ecological perspectives. However, in the era of climate change, anthropogenic disturbance, and rapid urbanization, new insights are needed to understand how plant species in these forest habitats are changing and adapting. Here, we recognize four themes that link studies from Asia and Europe presented in this Special Issue: (1) genetic analyses of diverse plant species; (2) above- and below-ground forest biodiversity; (3) trait expression and biological mechanisms; and (4) interactions of woody plants within a changing environment. These investigations enlarge our understanding of the origins of diversity, trait variation and heritability, and plant–environment interactions from diverse perspectives.

“…A recent study showed that under high temperature stress, AGAMOUS-LIKE67 (AGL67) could be combined with EARLY BOLTING IN SHORT DAY (EBS) to negatively control seed germination through the zinc-finger protein SOMNUS (SOM) in Arabidopsis ( Li et al, 2020 ). With the increase in the number of research studies, a large number of MIKC-type genes have been identified from different species and shown to be involved in processes related to the stress response and hormone effects ( Arora et al, 2007 ; Jia et al, 2018 ; Wang et al, 2018 ; Wei et al, 2018 ). For example, the MIKC-type MADS-box transcription factor SVP2 from kiwifruit ( Actinidia sp.)…”

MADS-box transcription factors play vital roles in multiple biological processes in plants. At present, a comprehensive investigation into the genome-wide identification and classification of MADS-box genes in foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.) has not been reported. In this study, we identified 72 MADS-box genes in the foxtail millet genome and give an overview of the phylogeny, chromosomal location, gene structures, and potential functions of the proteins encoded by these genes. We also found that the expression of 10 MIKC-type MADS-box genes was induced by abiotic stresses (PEG-6000 and NaCl) and exogenous hormones (ABA and GA), which suggests that these genes may play important regulatory roles in response to different stresses. Further studies showed that transgenic Arabidopsis and rice (Oryza sativa L.) plants overexpressing SiMADS51 had reduced drought stress tolerance as revealed by lower survival rates and poorer growth performance under drought stress conditions, which demonstrated that SiMADS51 is a negative regulator of drought stress tolerance in plants. Moreover, expression of some stress-related genes were down-regulated in the SiMADS51-overexpressing plants. The results of our study provide an overall picture of the MADS-box gene family in foxtail millet and establish a foundation for further research on the mechanisms of action of MADS-box proteins with respect to abiotic stresses.
