ABSTRACT Drought limits the productivity of fast‐growing woody crops, although the metabolic adjustments conferring water stress tolerance remain poorly understood. We investigated the responses of Populus nigra seedlings to water stress by integrating daily physiological measurements and NMR metabolomic analyses.

Light-dependent regulation of carotenoid biosynthesis in plants [PDF]
Carotenoids are colored terpenes synthesized in plants, algae and some yeasts and bacteria. In plants and algae, these lipophilic molecules exert functional roles in hormone synthesis, photosynthesis, photomorphogenesis and photoprotection ...

ABSTRACT Lysine represents a metabolic hub linking mitochondrial energy status with amino acid catabolism, yet its role in coordinating plant growth and development remains poorly characterised. The dapat mutant, which is deficient in L,L‐diaminopimelate aminotransferase (DAPAT), exhibits severe growth inhibition associated with broad metabolic ...

Vestigial Plastids in Parasitic Plants: Evolutionary Remnants or Adaptive Innovations?
ABSTRACT Throughout the evolutionary history of plants, chloroplasts originating from a cyanobacterial endosymbiosis have undergone remarkable adaptation and specialization, giving rise to a multitude of plastid types. The evolution toward parasitism in plants represents a particularly extreme case of such specialization.

ABSTRACT Drought tolerance in crops often involves trade‐offs between water conservation, growth and reproduction. Understanding how water‐saving strategies are implemented at physiological and metabolic levels remains critical for improving crop performance under water‐limited conditions.

ABSTRACT Improving photosynthesis is proposed as a means of enhancing crop productivity. To assess whether simultaneous increases in light use‐efficiency and carbon assimilation are additive, we investigated the impact of elevated CO2 on the performance of a transgenic soybean line engineered for faster relaxation of photoprotection by overexpression ...

Carotenoids Biosynthesis – a review
As plantas sintetizam uma enorme variedade de metabolitos, que podem ser classificados em dois grupos, de acordo com as suas funções: metabolitos primários, que participam na nutrição e processos metabólicos essenciais no interior da própria planta, e metabolitos secundários (também referidos como produtos naturais), os quais influenciam as interacções

MYB17‐DFR/LDOX Module Positively Regulates Cyanidin Deposition in Cinnamomum Camphora
ABSTRACT Cinnamomum camphora is a cornerstone ornamental tree species in southern China, valued for its evergreen foliage and distinctive scent. However, the uniformly green foliage and brown bark limit its landscaping values. In this study, we characterised a coloured camphor variety, ‘Gantong 1’, and revealed cyanidin content as the critical factor ...
