The biosynthesis of the cannabinoids [PDF]
Abstract Cannabis has been integral to Eurasian civilization for millennia, but a century of prohibition has limited investigation. With spreading legalization, science is pivoting to study the pharmacopeia of the cannabinoids, and a thorough understanding of their biosynthesis is required to engineer strains with ...

Glutamate, Ornithine, Arginine, Proline, and Polyamine Metabolic Interactions: The Pathway Is Regulated at the Post-Transcriptional Level [PDF]
The metabolism of glutamate into ornithine, arginine, proline, and polyamines is a major network of nitrogen-metabolizing pathways in plants, which also produces intermediates like nitric oxide, and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) that play critical roles in ...

The biosynthesis of pyoverdines [PDF]
Pyoverdines are fluorescent siderophores of pseudomonads that play important roles for growth under iron-limiting conditions. The production of pyoverdines by fluorescent pseudomonads permits their colonization of hosts ranging from humans to plants.

The biosynthesis of glucosamine [PDF]
Abstract A partially purified enzyme has been prepared from Neurospora crassa which catalyzes the formation of glucosamine phosphate from hexose-6-phosphate and glutamine. The glucosamine phosphate was identified by colour reactions, by dephosphorylation and paper chromatography and by its behaviour towards an acetylating system.

Salicylic Acid Biosynthesis in Plants
Salicylic acid (SA) is an important plant hormone that is best known for mediating host responses upon pathogen infection. Its role in plant defense activation is well established, but its biosynthesis in plants is not fully understood.

Repressors of anthocyanin biosynthesis.
Anthocyanins play a variety of adaptive roles in both vegetative tissues and reproductive organs of plants. The broad functionality of these compounds requires sophisticated regulation of the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway to allow proper localization,

Effects of cadmium stress on seed germination and physiological-biochemical characteristics in okra: a comparative study of red and green varieties [PDF]
Previous study has demonstrated that okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench) is capable of accumulating cadmium (Cd) in both plants and fruits. However, there is still little known about the physiological responses of different okra cultivars to Cd ...
