Chromosome‐Level Genome Assembly of the Allotetraploid Gynostemma pentaphyllum Provides Novel Insights Into the Biosynthesis of Ginsenoside and Gypenoside LVI

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gynostemma pentaphyllum, a herb used in tea and traditional Chinese medicine, shows geographic variation in its production of valuable dammarane‐type ginsenosides and gypenoside LVI between populations from Suining (SN) and Nanning (NN). To elucidate the mechanisms underlying this differential metabolite accumulation, a chromosome‐level genome

Analyzing heavy metal contamination for one of the high-rate consumption fruits in Iran: A probabilistic health risk assessment

Heliyon
Good health and well-being is one of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) that can be achieved through fruit consumption. This study measured cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) heavy metal concentrations.

RNA-Seq improves annotation of protein-coding genes in the cucumber genome [PDF]

, 2011
Background As more and more genomes are sequenced, genome annotation becomes increasingly important in bridging the gap between sequence and biology. Gene prediction, which is at the center of genome annotation, usually integrates various resources to ...

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 ...

Embryo rescue of cucumber (Cucumis sativus), muskmelon (C. melo) and some wild Cucumis species (C. anguria, C. zeyheri, and C. metuliferus)

Journal of Applied Botany and Food Quality, 2012
Cucumis sativus is one of the most economically important crops of the Cucurbitaceae. Recent cucumber cultivars are susceptible to some serious diseases and pests, including downy mildew, powdery mildew, nematodes, and spider mites. Sources of resistance

Concurrent Temperature and Light Intensity Fluctuations Promote Stomatal Opening and Non‐Steady State Photosynthesis

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In nature, fluctuations in light intensity (FL) are tightly coupled to rapid changes in leaf temperature (Tleaf), yet the short‐term physiological effects of these concurrent drivers remain largely unresolved. Here, we combined rapid infrared induced Tleaf fluctuations with controlled step changes in light intensity for leaf gas exchange ...

Suitable rootstocks for organically grown tomato and cucumber in relation to Meloidogyne SPP. [PDF]

, 2011
In organic greenhouse vegetable production, significant yield loss occurs due to root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.). Soil steaming is effective; however, it is not preferred, since beneficial soil micro organisms are eliminated.
