A cDNA encoding a pinoresinol–lariciresinol reductase PLR (PLR‐Lp1) was isolated from a cell culture of Linum perenne Himmelszelt accumulating the arylnaphthalene lignan justicidin B. The recombinant PLR‐Lp1 prefers (+)‐pinoresinol in the first reaction step, but (−)‐lariciresinol in the second step.

Genomic studies in Linum shed light on the evolution of the distyly supergene and the molecular basis of convergent floral evolution. [PDF]
Summary Distyly, an example of convergent evolution, is governed by a supergene, the S‐locus, in several species. Recent studies highlight similar genomic architectures of independently evolved S‐loci, but its mode of origin and whether similar regulatory pathways underlie the convergent evolution of distyly remains unclear.

Establishment of an Agrobacterium-mediated transformation system for the genetic engineering of Linum grandiflorum Desf. [PDF]
Abstract Genetic transformation is a powerful tool in plant biotechnology. However, its application is limited to species that are well‐studied and easy to transform. There is a critical need to establish transformation protocols for non‐model species.

Perennial Flax: A Potential Cut Flower Crop
The genus Linum L. contains ≈200 primarily blue-flowered species, including several ornamentals, yet no reports exist regarding the cut flower potential of this genus. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cut flower potential of perennial flax

Ideotype Selection of Perennial Flax (Linum spp.) for Herbaceous Plant Habit Traits
(1) Background: Annual flax (Linum usitatissimum) and many wild relatives possess showy blue flowers and finely textured foliage. To promote the use of blue-flowered flax as ornamentals, an herbaceous perennial flax breeding program was initiated to ...

Can allelopathic potentialities of Mediterranean plant species reduce the spread of invasive plant species, Acacia dealbata and Ailanthus altissima? [PDF]
In this study, we provide clear evidence that the leaf aqueous extracts of three Mediterranean native species (Cistus albidus, Cistus ladanifer and Cotinus coggygria) exhibit negative allelopathic effects on seed germination and seedling growth of the two invasive plant species (Acacia dealbata and Ailanthus altissima).
