CmPPR4 gene controls drought resilience in melon ecotypes

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Global climate change has rendered drought stress an increasing threat to sustainable crop production. Melon (Cucumis melo) crop is widely cultivated worldwide, and has been classified into two subspecies C. melo ssp. melo and C. melo ssp. agrestis with greater drought tolerance variation.

PtrVINV2 is dispensable for cellulose synthesis but essential for salt tolerance in Populus trichocarpa Torr. and Gray

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Invertase (EC.3.2.1.26), a key enzyme in sucrose breakdown, is crucial for cellulose synthesis. However, the function of the vacuolar invertase (VINV) in woody plants remains unclear. In this study, transgenic lines of Populus trichocarpa Torr. and Gray were generated to investigate the role of PtrVINV2 in wood formation and under high salinity

An intronic SNP in the Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenase 1 (CsCCD1) controls yellow flesh formation in cucumber fruit (Cucumis sativus L.)

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Vitamin A is a crucial yet scarce vitamin essential for maintaining normal metabolism and bodily functions in humans and can only be obtained from food. Carotenoids represent a diverse group of functional pigments that act as precursors for vitamins, hormones, aroma volatiles and antioxidants.

Raman Imaging of Plant Cell Walls in Sections of Cucumis sativus

Plants, 2018
Raman microspectra combine information on chemical composition of plant tissues with spatial information. The contributions from the building blocks of the cell walls in the Raman spectra of plant tissues can vary in the microscopic sub-structures of the

New Integrative Vectors Increase Agrobacterium rhizogenes Transformation and Help Characterise Roles for Soybean GmTML Gene Family Members

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hairy‐root transformation is widely used to generate transgenic plant roots for genetic functional characterisation studies. However, transformation efficiency can be limited, largely due to the use of binary vectors. Here, we report on the development of novel integrative vectors that significantly increase the transformation efficiency of ...

Viewing Stomata in Action: Autonomous in Planta Imaging of Individual Stomatal Movement

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stomata regulate plant gas exchange under changing environments, but observations of single stomata dynamics in planta are sparse. We developed a compact microscope system that can measure the kinetics of tens of stomata in planta simultaneously, with sub‐minute time resolution.

Comparative Cyto-molecular Analysis of Repetitive DNA Provides Insights into the Differential Genome Structure and Evolution of Five Cucumis Species

Horticultural Plant Journal, 2019
The genus Cucumis, includes the cucumber (2n = 14), melon (2n = 24), and other wild species, which is a good model for studying genome organization and evolution due to their variation in genome size and basic chromosome number.
