Metabolic and molecular events occurring during chromoplast biogenesis [PDF]
Journal of Botany, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011 Chromoplasts are nonphotosynthetic plastids that accumulate carotenoids. They derive from other plastid forms, mostly chloroplasts. The biochemical events responsible for the interconversion of one plastid form into another are poorly documented. However,

Integrative molecular and physiological insights into the phytotoxic impact of liquid crystal monomer exposure and the protective strategy in plants. [PDF]
Plant Biotechnol JSummary Liquid crystal monomers (LCMs), the integral components in the manufacture of digital displays, have engendered environmental concerns due to extensive utilization and intensive emission. Despite their prevalence and ecotoxicity, the LCM impacts on plant growth and agricultural yield remain inadequately understood.

Phylogenetic Position of Aquificales Based on the Whole Genome Sequences of Six Aquificales Species [PDF]
International Journal of Evolutionary Biology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Species belonging to the order Aquificales are believed to be an early branching lineage within the Bacteria. However, the branching order of this group in single‐gene phylogenetic trees is highly variable; for example, it has also been proposed that the Aquificales should be grouped with ε‐proteobacteria.

New Phytologist, Volume 234, Issue 2, Page 527-544, April 2022., 2022 Summary High‐throughput single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐Seq) identifies distinct cell populations based on cell‐to‐cell heterogeneity in gene expression. By examining the distribution of the density of gene expression profiles, we can observe the metabolic features of each cell population.

Characteristics of the tomato chromoplast revealed by proteomic analysis [PDF]
, 2010 Chromoplasts are non-photosynthetic specialized plastids that are important in ripening tomato fruit (Solanum lycopersicum) since, among other functions, they are the site of accumulation of coloured compounds.
