Differential Expression of Benzophenone Synthase and Chalcone Synthase in Hypericum Sampsonii [PDF]
cDNAs encoding Hypericum sampsonii benzophenone synthase (HsBPS) and chalcone synthase (HsCHS) were isolated and functionally characterized. Differential expressions of HsBPS and HsCHS were monitored using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

Many biocontrol fluorescent pseudomonads can protect plants from soilborne fungal pathogens through production of the antifungal secondary metabolite 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (Phl). One of the phl biosynthetic genes, phlD, encodes a polyketide synthase

How to perform RT-qPCR accurately in plant species?: a case study on flower colour gene expression in an azalea (Rhododendron simsii hybrids) mapping population [PDF]
Background: Flower colour variation is one of the most crucial selection criteria in the breeding of a flowering pot plant, as is also the case for azalea (Rhododendron simsii hybrids).

Transcriptome-sequencing analyses reveal flower color formation in Strelitzia reginae
Strelitzia reginae is a popular cut flower that has blue petals and orange sepals. Flower color is an important plant trait; however, little is known about its molecular mechanisms in S. reginae.

Cross‐reaction of chalcone synthase and stilbene synthase overexpressed in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Chalcone synthase (CHS) and stilbene synthase (STS) are related plant polyketide synthases belonging to the CHS superfamily. CHS and STS catalyze common condensation reactions of p‐coumaroyl‐CoA and three C2‐units from malonyl‐CoA but different cyclization reactions to produce naringenin chalcone and resveratrol, respectively.

Beyond antioxidants: the cellular and molecular interactions of flavonoids and how these underpin their actions on the brain [PDF]
The consumption of flavonoid-rich foods and beverages has been suggested to limit the neurodegeneration associated with a variety of neurological disorders and to prevent or reverse normal or abnormal deteriorations in cognitive performance.

The MYB, MYC, and WD40 transcription factors (TFs) are known to regulate the expression of structural biosynthetic genes at different steps depending on the plant species. In this work, we used an agroinfiltration protocol with Tobacco rattle virus (TRV)
