Remote Sensing of Endogenous Pigmentation by Inducible Synthetic Circuits in Grasses

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant synthetic biology holds great promise for engineering plants to meet future demands. Genetic circuits are being designed, built and tested in plants to demonstrate the proof of concept. However, developing these components in monocots, which the world relies on for grain, lags behind dicot models, such as Arabidopsis thaliana and ...

Rooting Conifer Genetic Research: An Accessible and Efficient Transformation System

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conifers serve as the cornerstone of global forest ecosystems, yet their genetic transformation faces notorious challenges. To overcome the intrinsic resistance of conifer adventitious roots to Agrobacterium/Rhizobium‐mediated transformation, we systematically and iteratively engineered the binary vector by introducing chimeric Ri plasmid ...

Distribution of betalain pigments in red blood cells after consuption of cactus pear fruits and increased resistance of the cells to ex vivo induced oxidative hemolysis in humans [PDF]

, 2005
Betalain pigments are bioavailable phytochemicals recently acknowledged as natural radical scavengers. This work, which extends previous research on the postabsorbitive fate of dietary betalains, investigated the distribution of betanin and ...

First Successful Targeted Mutagenesis Using CRISPR/Cas9 in Stably Transformed Grain Amaranth Tissue

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grain amaranth is a nutritionally rich, stress‐tolerant C4 dicot with considerable potential for climate‐resilient agriculture; however, efficient and reproducible protocols for stable transformation, regeneration, and CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated editing have not yet been established.

Stress-specific adaptation of a non-betalain DODA homolog from pansy (Viola × wittrockiana)

Industrial Crops and Products
The mutual exclusivity of anthocyanin and betalain pigmentation in plants is a classic example of metabolic lineage-specific adaptation. Unlike L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) 4,5-dioxygenase (DODA) in betalain-producing plants, which is ...

Strain, procedures, and tools for reproducible genetic transformation and genome editing of the emerging plant model Spirodela polyrhiza

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 2, Page 735-756, April 2026.
Summary Duckweeds (Lemnaceae) have excellent potential for fundamental and applied research due to ease of cultivation, small size, and continuous fast clonal growth. However, their usage as model organisms and platforms for biotechnological applications is often limited by the lack of universal genetic manipulation methods necessary for transgene ...
