Molecular characterization of diosgenin biosynthesis in different organs of Trigonella foenum-graecum L.

Journal of Aridland Agriculture
Fenugreek, an annual herb, is a significant source of diosgenin, a triterpene with bioactive properties. This study aimed to molecularly characterize diosgenin biosynthesis in various organs of fenugreek, including flowers, immature leaves, developing leaves, mature leaves, stems, roots, and pods. The biosynthetic pathway involves vital enzymes such as

Dracaenogenins C and D, Two New 12(13→14)-Abeo-Spirostanols from the Red Resin of Dracaena cochinchinensis

Molecules
The red resin of Dracaena cochinchinensis (Lour.) S.C. Chen, known as Chinese dragon’s blood, is formed through metabolic reprogramming following trunk injury, during which the original steroidal saponins are depleted and transformed.

Differential responses of two fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) landraces pretreated with melatonin to prolonged drought stress and subsequent recovery

BMC Plant Biology
Background Drought impairs growth, disturbs photosynthesis, and induces senescence in plants, which results in crop productivity reduction and ultimately jeopardizes human food security.

Characterizing reference genes for high-fidelity gene expression analysis under different abiotic stresses and elicitor treatments in fenugreek leaves

Plant Methods
Background Quantifying gene expression is a critical aspect of applied genomics research across all organisms, and real-time PCR has emerged as a powerful tool for this purpose. However, selecting appropriate internal control genes for data normalization
