Peptide AEDL Activates Metabolism and Autophagy in Root Cells of <i>Nicotiana tabacum</i>. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci
The short peptide AlaGluAspLeu (AEDL) stimulates shoot and root development in Nicotiana tabacum. Growing tobacco in the presence of AEDL was found to induce autophagy and programmed cell death, as demonstrated using immunodetection of the autophagy ...

New insights into the mechanisms of plant isotope fractionation from combined analysis of intramolecular <sup>13</sup>C and deuterium abundances in Pinus nigra tree-ring glucose. [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytol
Summary Understanding isotope fractionation mechanisms is fundamental for analyses of plant ecophysiology and paleoclimate based on tree‐ring isotope data. To gain new insights into isotope fractionation, we analysed intramolecular 13C discrimination in tree‐ring glucose (Δi′, i = C‐1 to C‐6) and metabolic deuterium fractionation at H1 and H2 (εmet ...

Limonene Synthase, the Enzyme Responsible for Monoterpene Biosynthesis in Peppermint, Is Localized to Leucoplasts of Oil Gland Secretory Cells1 [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1999
Abstract Circumstantial evidence based on ultrastructural correlation, specific labeling, and subcellular fractionation studies indicates that at least the early steps of monoterpene biosynthesis occur in plastids. (4S)-Limonene synthase, which is responsible for the first dedicated step of monoterpene biosynthesis in mint species ...

High Expression of Cry1Ac Protein in Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) by Combining Independent Transgenic Events that Target the Protein to Cytoplasm and Plastids. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Transgenic cotton was developed using two constructs containing a truncated and codon-modified cry1Ac gene (1,848 bp), which was originally characterized from Bacillus thuringiensis subspecies kurstaki strain HD73 that encodes a toxin highly effective ...

Regulation of leucoplast morphology in roots [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Signaling & Behavior, 2010
The appearance of leaf mesophyll chloroplasts in angiosperms is characterized by their uniform and static shape, which is molded by symmetric division of the preexisting organelles, involving three prokaryote-derived proteins: the division executor protein, FtsZ, and the division site positioning proteins, MinD and MinE.

Identification of two terpenoids that accumulate in Chinese water chestnut in response to fresh‐cut processing

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 11, Issue 9, Page 5166-5173, September 2023., 2023
6ß‐Hydroxystigmast‐4‐en‐3‐one and blumenol A were isolated and identified from CWC for the first time. Fresh‐cut processing induced the biosynthesis of these two compounds in CWC during the late stage of storage. Expression of structural genes involved in terpenoid backbone biosynthesis and carotenoid precursor biosynthesis of CWC was induced by ...

Protein transport in plant cells.

open access: yes, 1990
This thesis is a study of the routes by which proteins are incorporated into organelles in plant cells. The mechanism of protein translocation into protein bodies, leucoplasts and glyoxysomes - three major types of organelle in castor bean endosperm ...

Multiple paths of plant host toxicity are associated with the fungal toxin cercosporin

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 46, Issue 8, Page 2542-2557, August 2023., 2023
Abstract The Cercospora species of fungi are responsible for leaf spot disease affecting many key economic crops. Most of these fungi secrete a toxic photodynamic molecule, cercosporin, that reacts with light and oxygen to produce reactive singlet oxygen (1O2) contributing to fungal virulence.

The Effect of Light on Plastid Differentiation, Chlorophyll Biosynthesis, and Essential Oil Composition in Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) Leaves and Cotyledons

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
It is unclear whether light affects the structure and activity of exogenous secretory tissues like glandular hairs. Therefore, transmission electron microscopy was first used to study plastid differentiation in glandular hairs and leaves of light-grown ...

Plant nitrogen availability and crosstalk with phytohormones signallings and their biotechnology breeding application in crops

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 21, Issue 7, Page 1320-1342, July 2023., 2023
Summary Nitrogen (N), one of the most important nutrients, limits plant growth and crop yields in sustainable agriculture system, in which phytohormones are known to play essential roles in N availability. Hence, it is not surprising that massive studies about the crosstalk between N and phytohormones have been constantly emerging. In this review, with
