Effects of environmental variation during seed production on seed dormancy and germination

S Penfield, DR MacGregor - Journal of experimental botany, 2017 - academic.oup.com
The environment during seed production has major impacts on the behaviour of progeny
seeds. It can be shown that for annual plants temperature perception over the whole life history …

Maternal temperature history activates Flowering Locus T in fruits to control progeny dormancy according to time of year

M Chen, DR MacGregor, A Dave… - Proceedings of the …, 2014 - National Acad Sciences
Seasonal behavior is important for fitness in temperate environments but it is unclear how
progeny gain their initial seasonal entrainment. Plants use temperature signals to measure …

Root System Architecture in Arabidopsis Grown in Culture Is Regulated by Sucrose Uptake in the Aerial Tissues

DR MacGregor, KI Deak, PA Ingram, JE Malamy - The Plant Cell, 2008 - academic.oup.com
This article presents a detailed model for the regulation of lateral root formation in Arabidopsis
thaliana seedlings grown in culture. We demonstrate that direct contact between the aerial …

Seed production temperature regulation of primary dormancy occurs through control of seed coat phenylpropanoid metabolism

DR MacGregor, SL Kendall, H Florance, F Fedi… - New …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Seed production temperature regulation of primary dormancy occurs through control of seed
coat phenylpropanoid metabolism - MacGregor - 2015 - New Phytologist - Wiley Online …

[HTML][HTML] A VEL3 histone deacetylase complex establishes a maternal epigenetic state controlling progeny seed dormancy

X Chen, DR MacGregor, FL Stefanato, N Zhang… - Nature …, 2023 - nature.com
Mother plants play an important role in the control of dormancy and dispersal characters of
their progeny. In Arabidopsis seed dormancy is imposed by the embryo-surrounding tissues …

Linked circadian outputs control elongation growth and flowering in response to photoperiod and temperature

…, RW Smith, YH Song, DR MacGregor… - Molecular systems …, 2015 - embopress.org
Clock‐regulated pathways coordinate the response of many developmental processes to
changes in photoperiod and temperature. We model two of the best‐understood clock output …

HIGH EXPRESSION OF OSMOTICALLY RESPONSIVE GENES1 is required for circadian periodicity through the promotion of nucleo-cytoplasmic mRNA export in …

DR MacGregor, P Gould, J Foreman, J Griffiths… - The Plant …, 2013 - academic.oup.com
… , which includes RNA retained in the nucleus as well as that in the cytoplasm, it is possible
that the population that is available for translation is sufficiently rhythmic in hos1 to drive

ICE 1 and ZOU determine the depth of primary seed dormancy in Arabidopsis independently of their role in endosperm development

DR MacGregor, N Zhang, M Iwasaki, M Chen… - The Plant …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
ICE1 and ZOU determine the depth of primary seed dormancy in Arabidopsis independently
of their role in endosperm development - MacGregor - 2019 - The Plant Journal - Wiley …

Model selection reveals control of cold signalling by evening‐phased components of the plant circadian clock

J Keily, DR MacGregor, RW Smith, AJ Millar… - The Plant …, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Circadian clocks confer advantages by restricting biological processes to certain times of
day through the control of specific phased outputs. Control of temperature signalling is an …

Dissecting weed adaptation: Fitness and trait correlations in herbicide‐resistant Alopecurus myosuroides

D Comont, DR MacGregor, L Crook… - Pest Management …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
BACKGROUND Unravelling the genetic architecture of non‐target‐site resistance (NTSR)
traits in weed populations can inform questions about the inheritance, trade‐offs and fitness …
