A systems biology approach identifies a R2R3 MYB gene subfamily with distinct and overlapping functions in regulation of aliphatic glucosinolates.

PLoS ONE, 2007
BackgroundGlucosinolates are natural metabolites in the order Brassicales that defend plants against both herbivores and pathogens and can attract specialized insects. Knowledge about the genes controlling glucosinolate regulation is limited.

Effects of LED Light Exposure on Lutein and Bioactive Compounds in Nasturtium Flowers (Tropaeolum majus L.)

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Red LED supplementation during cultivation modulated the accumulation of bioactive compounds in Tropaeolum majus flowers. Moderate exposure (3–5 h) enhanced antioxidant capacity and increased carotenoids, phenolics, and anthocyanins depending on petal color, highlighting a simple strategy to improve the functional value of edible flowers. ABSTRACT This

Glucosinolate Biosynthesis and the Glucosinolate–Myrosinase System in Plant Defense

Agronomy, 2020
Insect pests represent a major global challenge to important agricultural crops. Insecticides are often applied to combat such pests, but their use has caused additional challenges such as environmental contamination and human health issues. Over millions of years, plants have evolved natural defense mechanisms to overcome insect pests and pathogens ...
