Abstract WRKY type transcription factors (TFs) play crucial roles in the growth and development of plants. However, a comprehensive analysis of the WRKY family members in a valuable Chinese herbal orchid, Bletilla striata, or in other orchids, is limited. In this study, WRKY gene family was screened out from the transcriptome data of Bletilla striata by bioinformatics method. The 29 WRKY TFs that were identified from the B. striata genome and named BsWRKY1 to BsWRKY29 were divided into three clades: group Ⅰ (involving 8 WRKY sequences), group Ⅱ (18) and group Ⅲ (3), in which group Ⅱ was further divided into 5 subgroups: Ⅱ-a (involving 1 WRKY sequences), Ⅱ-b (5), and Ⅱ-c (3), Ⅱ-d (7), Ⅱ-e (3). EST-SSR marker mining test showed that 10 markers could be stably amplified with obvious polymorphisms among 4 landraces. Our data suggest that BsWRKY genes may work together to regulate plant growth and development. In different subcellular locations, BsWRKY genes not only played its own functions, but also coordinated the regulation of the whole life activities. Taken together, these results provided a theoretical basis for further studies on the gene functions and regulatory mechanisms of what in B. striata.

Vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizae (VAM) generally enhances uptake and translocation of P and encourages plant growth and development in nutrient-deficient soils. Contradictory reports about the role of VAM in S uptake and translocation may result from insufficient consideration of soil S status. In this study, using soils of low S status, VAM inoculation increased the content of radioactively labelled S (35S) in shoots of maize plants. Key words: Maize plant, S-uptake, Vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizae fungi

Plant hormones are master regulators of plant growth and development. Better knowledge of their spatial signaling and homeostasis (transport and metabolism) on the lowest structural levels (cellular and subcellular) is therefore crucial to a better understanding of developmental processes in plants. Recent progress in phytohormone analysis at the cellular and subcellular levels has greatly improved the effectiveness of isolation protocols and the sensitivity of analytical methods. This review is mainly focused on homeostasis of two plant hormone groups, auxins and cytokinins. It will summarize and discuss their tissue- and cell-type specific distributions at the cellular and subcellular levels.

Cell-to-cell communication in plants is mediated by plasmodesmata (PD) whose permeability is tightly regulated during plant growth and development. The actin cytoskeleton has been implicated in regulating the permeability of PD, but the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. Recent characterization of PD-localized formin proteins has shed light on the role and mechanism of action of actin in regulating PD-mediated intercellular trafficking. In this mini-review article, we will describe the progress in this area.
