Tadashi Tazawa; Koh Ishikawa; Kimiko Sasaki Plant and Cell Physiology 1979. doi:10.1093/oxfordjournals.pcp.a075830
Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Winter wheat chromatin synthesized heterogeneous RNA using endogenous polymerase.
- Observation Medium mRNA synthesis decreased at 24°C late in germination.
- Observation Small mRNA synthesis increased at 24°C late in germination.
- Intervention effect Medium mRNA synthesis decreased at 3°C during cold treatment.
- Observation Chromatin from germinated shoots predominantly synthesized medium mRNA at 24°C and small mRNA at 3°C.
- Observation Chromatin from cold-treated shoots predominantly synthesized large and medium mRNAs at 24°C, and small mRNA at 3°C.
- Intervention effect Cold treatment was inferred to stimulate high molecular weight RNA synthesis at 24°C.
- Mechanism The authors inferred a developmental role for high molecular weight transcripts in vernalized shoots.
