Abstract

Plants growing under high-density (HD) conditions experience increased competition for water, nutrients, and light, possibly leading to changes in size, biomass, morphology, and productivity. However, no research has focused on the relationship between whole-genome expression patterns and growth density. Here, we performed whole-genome RNA sequencing to examine the gene expression patterns in Arabidopsis grown under low and high densities. Of the 20,660 detected genes, the expression levels of 98 were enhanced and 107 were repressed under HD growth. Further analysis revealed that changes in density influenced metabolism- and stimulus-related genes the most. Furthermore, HD growth led to a shade avoidance phenotype, represented by upward growth and a reduction in rosette leaves. Moreover, a cluster of glutaredoxin genes, GRXS3, 4, 5, 7, and 8, were significantly down-regulated under high density, suggesting that high density affects plant growth mainly by nitrate limitation.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 8. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 14 December 2017.
All research outputs
#3,963,298
of 23,011,300 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Plant Science
#1,999
of 20,507 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#84,336
of 438,556 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Plant Science
#54
of 436 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,011,300 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 82nd percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 20,507 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.0. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 438,556 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 436 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its contemporaries.
