A species-specific cluster of defensin-like genes encodes diffusible pollen tube attractants in Arabidopsis.

PLoS biology - 1 Jan 2012

Takeuchi Hidenori, Higashiyama Tetsuya

Abstract excerpt

Genes directly involved in male/female and host/parasite interactions are believed to be under positive selection. The flowering plant Arabidopsis thaliana has more than 300 defensin-like (DEFL) genes, which are likely to be involved in both natural immunity and cell-to-cell communication including pollen-pistil interactions. However, little is known of the relationship between the molecular evolution of DEFL...
