The dentate gyrus(DG) has important roles on learning and memory. However, how the fate of DG granule cells during early development determined is still far less clear. The forkhead box transcription factor Fox G1, usually serves as a transcriptional repressor and is thought to be involved in Rett syndrome, which is characterized by reduced hippocampus size, cognitive detects and severe mental retardation, indicating its important role in very early development of the DG. To further elucidate the mechanism of the DG cell fate determination, here we conditionally ablated Foxg1 in neural progenitor cells(NPCs) by crossing Foxg1 with Nestin-cre ER mice combined with tamoxifen induction. We have found that a small portion of cortical deep layer neuronsswitched their fates to CR cells when Foxg1 was deleted at the very early developmental stages. However a large portion of Foxg1-ablated deep layer neurons produced in the dorsal-lateral pallium adopted DG granule cell fates. Further studies in vivo and in vitro have shown that Fox G1 autonomously represses both CR cell and DG cell fates at the early developmental stages, and the suppression on CR cell fate is even much earlier. Our data will help to understand the mechanisms of how the telencephalic cell fate determined.

Drought stress is one of the major constraints to rice (Oryza sativa L.) production and yield stability especially in rainfed ecosystems and is getting worse as the climate changes worldwide. Dongxiang wild rice (DXWR) Oryza rufipogon Griff., contains drought resistant gene. Improving drought resistance of cultivars is crucial to increase and stabilize rice grain yield via transferring resistant gene from species related to rice. In this paper, four upland rice, sixty backcross inbred lines (BILs) derived from BC1F5 of R974//DXWR/R974, and their parents were employed to evaluate drought-resistance at seedling stage in the greenhouse. Nine traits were recorded for assessment of drought resistance, including maximum root length (MRL), number of roots (NR), shoot length (SL), dry root weight (DRW), fresh root weight (FRW), root relative water content (RRWC), leaf relative water content (LRWC), level for rolling leaf (LRL), and seedling survivability under repeat drought (SSRD). Using more than 88% of accumulative contribution resulted from the principal component analysis (PCA), the nine traits were classified into five independent principal components and the line 1949 showed the highest resistance. Analysis on the stepwise regression equation and correlation demonstrated that MRL, RN, FRW, and RRWC significantly influenced the drought resistance, thus could be used as comprehensive index for drought resistance at the seedling stage. Using the major gene plus polygene mixed inheritance model of quantitative traits, the inheritance of drought-resistance of BIL population at seedling stage was mostly controlled by two independent genes plus polygene. As a result, the DXWR could be precious resources for genetic improvement of drought resistance in cultivated rice.
