Identification and functional analysis of two P450 enzymes of Gossypium hirsutum involved in DMNT and TMTT biosynthesis [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, 2018
Summary The homoterpenes (3E)-4,8-dimethyl-1,3,7-nonatriene (DMNT) and (E,E)-4,8,12-trimethyl-1,3,7,11-tridecatetraene (TMTT) are major herbivore-induced plant volatiles that can attract predatory or parasitic arthropods to protect injured plants from ...

Prenyltransferase from Gossypium hirsutum

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1980
Abstract A protein fraction has been purified from Gossypium hirsutum var. Coker 413 which synthesized all four geometrical isomers of farnesyl pyrophosphate from isopentenyl pyrophosphate alone, from isopentenyl pyrophosphate and geranyl or neryl pyrophosphate. Electrophoretic analysis showed that this protein fraction consisted of three proteins.

Cottonseed (Gossypium hirsutum)

2020
Cotton is both a food and a fiber crop. The cottonseed fibers/linters are mainly used for textile industry, while, as a food, its oil is used worldwide in various food applications such as cooking oil, frying oil, salad dressings, shortenings, and margarines.

Diversity in cyclic sesquiterpene production by Gossypium hirsutum

Phytochemistry, 1995
Major sesquiterpene components of oil of Texas Race Stock 810 of Gossypium hirsutum were alpha- and beta-selinene. This is the seventh cyclic terpene type found to date in this genus. Both alpha- and beta-selinene, along with aromadendrene, were found but only as minor components of extracts of several domestic cultivars of G. hirsutum.

Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)

2014
Cotton continues to be a crop of great economic importance in many developing and some developed countries. Cotton plants expressing the Bt gene to deter some of the major pests have been enthusiastically and widely accepted by the farmers in three of the major producing countries, i.e., China, India, and the USA. Considering the constraints related to

Microtubules in differentiating sieve elements of Gossypium hirsutum

Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1982
Changes in distribution, orientation, and abundance of microtubules (MT) in relation to sieve element differentiation in root protophloem and stem and midvein metaphloem of Gossypium hirsutum were studied at the ultrastructural level. Depending on their stage of differentiation the sieve elements were divided into four previously characterized groups ...

Transgenic Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum)

2000
Modern cotton cultivars are grown worldwide, primarily in tropical and subtropical regions. Asia (including the former Soviet Union) produces the largest amount of cotton, followed by North America, South America, Europe, and Australia. Cotton has long been valued as a crop because it produces fibers that can be spun and woven into fabric.

Malate synthase from Gossypium hirsutum

Phytochemistry, 1981
Abstract Malate synthase was purified 2000-fold from cotyledons of dark-germinated cotton, Gossypium hirsutum . The purified enzyme had a pH optimum of 8.2, and an absolute requirement for a divalent cation. Only glyoxylate and acetyl-CoA served as condensation partners. Results obtained with functional-group directed inhibitors suggest the presence

Gossypium arboreum GHSP26 enhances drought tolerance in Gossypium hirsutum

Biotechnology Progress, 2009
Abstract Heat‐shock proteins (HSP) are molecular chaperones for protein molecules. These proteins play an important role in protein–protein interactions such as, folding and assisting in the establishment of proper protein conformation and prevention of unwanted protein aggregation. A small HSP gene
