AraceaeDB: a functional genomics database of the Araceae family with a focus on konjac glucomannan biosynthesis in <i>Amorphophallus konjac</i> corms. [PDF]

Hortic Res
Abstract Amorphophallus konjac, as a significant representative of the Araceae family, demonstrates considerable potential for applications in medicine, healthcare, food, industry, and bioenergy due to its rich content of konjac glucomannan (KGM). However, the synthetic pathway of KGM remains largely unclear.

Effects of Intercropping on Rhizosphere Soil Bacterial Communities in Amorphophallus konjac

Open Journal of Soil Science, 2018
Soft rot disease causes heavy loss in konjac production every year, which caused by the genus Pectobacterium has been recognized as a major reason why konjac industry has not boomed in worldwide. However, intercropping with economically important trees can effectively control affect soft rot disease epidemics.
