MdERF2 regulates cuticle wax formation by directly activating MdLACS2, MdCER1 and MdCER6 of apple fruit during postharvest

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture
Ethylene response factors 2 (ERF2) are essential for plant growth, fruit ripening, metabolism, and resistance to stress. In this study, the expression levels of the genes for MdERF2 implicated in the biosynthesis, composition and ultrastructure of fruit ...

Variation in Anthocyanin Production Among Accessions and Cultivars of Rought Bluegrass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences (FAES): 3rd Place (The Ohio State University Edward F. Hayes Graduate Research Forum)When under biotic or abiotic stress many plants possess the ability to synthesize anthocyanins, red or blue secondary ...

Chemical analysis and biosynthesis of secondary alcohols in plant cuticular waxes

open access: yes, 2009
The biosynthesis of wax components containing secondary functional groups was investigated in the current study. Two fundamentally different pathways were proposed to introduce the secondary functional groups. One pathway involves hydroxylation of elongated substrates.

Imaging and genetic toolbox to study Arabidopsis embryogenesis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Embryogenesis in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana provides a framework for understanding how cell polarity and patterning coordinate with hormonal signalling to establish the plant body plan. Following fertilisation, the zygote divides asymmetrically to generate apical and basal lineages, establishing the apical–basal axis that defines ...

Citrus WRKY28 acts as a transcription repressor to modulate cuticular long-chain alkanes accumulation in response to water loss stress

open access: yesIndustrial Crops and Products
The cuticular wax, composed of very long-chain fatty acids, plays an important role in postharvest preservation. WRKY transcription factors take part in the regulation of stress responses, while the specific roles related to wax metabolism are still not ...

Rapid Genetic Stabilisation of Transgenic and Edited Wheat Through Transformation of Immature Haploid Embryos

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wheat is one of the globally important food crops, but its genetically modified application lags behind other staple crops due to its complex genome and low transformation efficiency. Normally, traditional transgenic and gene‐edited wheat requires multiple selfing generations for obtaining homozygous lines, which delayed the development of ...

A chromosome level genome assembly of Pseudoroegneria Libanotica reveals a key Kcs gene involves in the cuticular wax elongation for drought resistance

open access: yesBMC Genomics
Background The genus Pseudoroegneria (Nevski) Löve (Triticeae, Poaceae), whose genome symbol was designed as “St”, accounts for more than 60% of perennial Triticeae species.

Comparative Analysis of the Cuticular Wax Morphology, Composition and Biosynthesis in Two Kumquat Cultivars During Fruit Development

open access: yesHorticulturae
Cuticular wax plays an important role in the quality of kumquat (Fortunella crassifolia Swingle) fruit. In this study, the wax morphology, compositional profile of epi- and intracuticular wax, and crucial gene expression in ‘Rongan’ kumquat (RAK) and ...
