Diverse biological effects of glycosyltransferase genes from Tartary buckwheat [PDF]
Background: Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum) is an edible cereal crop whose sprouts have been marketed and commercialized for their higher levels of anti-oxidants, including rutin and anthocyanin. UDP-glucose flavonoid glycosyltransferases (UFGTs)

Sterol content in sunflower seeds (Helianthus annuus L.) as affected by genotypes and environmental conditions [PDF]
Phytosterols play essential roles in many plant cell mechanisms. They are of industrial interest since, as part of the diet, they can reduce Low Density Lipoprotein cholesterol.

Brassinosteroids Act as a Positive Regulator of Photoprotection in Response to Chilling Stress1
Brassinosteroids positively regulate photoprotection via the redox-PGR5-mediated pathway in response to chilling stress in tomato. Photoprotection is an important strategy adopted by plants to avoid photoinhibition under stress conditions.

Plant Metabolomics Applications in the Brassicaceae: Added Value for Science and Industry [PDF]
Crops from the family Brassicaceae represent a diverse and very interesting group of plants. In addition, their close relationship with the model plant, Arabidopsis thaliana, makes combined research on these species both scientifically valuable and of ...

Seedlings must continually calibrate their growth in response to the environment. Auxin and brassinosteroids (BRs) are plant hormones that work together to control growth responses during photomorphogenesis.

Effects of homobrassinolide in barley callus culture
Thirty-day-old barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Zafer-160) calli were treated with 0, 0.5, 1 µmol/L 22(S),23(S)-Homobrassinolide (HBL) for four weeks. Transfer of calli to hormone-free or HBL-supplemented medium caused an increase in total soluble protein ...

The sax1 dwarf mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana shows altered sensitivity of growth responses to abscisic acid, auxin, giberellin and ethylene and is partially rescued by exogenous brassinosteroid [PDF]
Genetic approaches using Arabidopsis thaliana aimed at the identification of mutations affecting events involved in auxin signalling have usually led to the isolation of auxin-resistant mutants.

Under cold stress, MdDSK2a‐like is degraded via the 26S proteasome pathway, thereby alleviating the degradation of MdMTA induced by the 26S proteasome and autophagy pathways mediated by MdDSK2a‐like. The accumulated MdMTA increases the m6A levels of cold‐responsive genes, thereby contributing to increased ROS detoxification, deposition of cell wall, as
