Sweet Potato Gene Clusters Control Anthocyanin Biosynthesis and Leaf Morphology
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) exhibits diversity in pigmentation and leaf morphology, yet the genetic architecture and regulatory organisation underlying these traits remain poorly resolved, particularly with respect to organ‐specific control.

Plant Glycosides and Glycosidases: A Treasure-Trove for Therapeutics
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Plants contain numerous glycoconjugates that are metabolized by specific glucosyltransferases and hydrolyzed by specific glycosidases, some also catalyzing synthetic transglycosylation reactions.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus) contains abundant flavonoid glycosides (FGs), which are important natural functional and colour components. However, there are few reports on the modification of UDP‐glycosyltransferases (UGTs) in relation to flavonoids in carnation.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.Abstract Abscisic acid (ABA) is a key phytohormone in plant responses to water deficit. Although there is extensive evidence that roots can synthesise ABA, recent findings suggest that local synthesis in response to dehydration contributes little to the root ABA pool compared to shoot‐sourced ABA.

Cell-wall glycolipid mutations and their effects on virulence of E. faecalis in a rat model of infective endocarditis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Enterococci are among the major pathogens implicated in cardiac infections and biofilm formation. E. faecalis has been shown to play an important role in infectious endocarditis. Several distinct mechanisms for biofilm formation have been identified in E.
