Tema: */Functional study of genes involved in seed and seedling development in maize/* Expositora: Dra. Gabriella Consonni (Universidad de Milan) Fecha: Lunes 10 de diciembre Hora: 13:30 hs Lugar: Auditorio CERZOS-CONICET BAHIA BLANCA - Edificio E1, Camino de la Carrindanga Km 7.
RESUMEN:
The maize species has always been considered as a model for genetic, genomic and cellular analysis and is among the first four crops worldwide. This seminar will present a work carried out in this species aimed at the isolation and characterization of key developmental and adaptation genes. Empty pericarp (emp) genes have been detected through the characterization of transposon tagged mutants exhibiting almost totally suppressed endosperm and a poorly developed embryo. These genes are involved in the differentiation of the main kernel domains and in the grain filling process.

Giulia Castorina (Universidad de Milan) Fecha: Lunes 10 de diciembre Hora: 14 hs Lugar: Auditorio CERZOS-CONICET BAHIA BLANCA - Edificio E1, Camino de la Carrindanga Km 7.
RESUMEN:
The cuticle is the outer hydrophobic layer covering the epidermal cells of aerial plant organs and it has been shown to have important functions in plant and floral development. However, genetic and hormone regulation of cuticle pathways in maize are still poorly understood.
