Fruit respiration: putting alternative pathways into perspective

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Over the past century, research has significantly advanced our understanding of fruit respiration, from (eco)physiological processes to molecular mechanisms. This review focuses on the functional relevance and regulatory roles of mitochondrial alternative respiratory pathways (ARPs) during fruit growth and ripening.

Crossability Between Wild (Malus sylvestris) and Cultivated (M. x domestica) Apples [PDF]

Silvae Genetica, 2008
AbstractMalus sylvestris, a native fruit tree of Europe, is believed to be threatened by hybridization with the omnipresent cultivated apple (Malus x domestica). In the present study a series of controlled crossings were carried out in order to establish whether M. sylvestris can hybridize with its near relative, M. x domestica. By looking at fruit set,

Risk of root intrusion by tree and shrub species into sewer pipes in Swedish urban areas [PDF]

, 2012
Blockages in sewer pipes caused by roots are very common and several tree and shrub species are reported to be particularly likely to cause root intrusion. This study examined the relative ability of roots of different species to intrude into urban sewer

The Jasmonate‐Responsive SmMPK3–SmWRKY33 Module Positively Regulates Tanshinone Biosynthesis in Salvia miltiorrhiza

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tanshinones, the major bioactive diterpenes in Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, are widely used to treat cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. While jasmonates (JAs) are known to modulate tanshinones accumulation, the molecular link between JA signalling and tanshinone biosynthesis remains unclear.

Pomological, organoleptic, and biochemical values of Norwegian heritage apple cultivars

Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science
Almost 10,000 of apple cultivars are described worldwide but only a few of them are dominating in commercial apple orchards. The decline in genetic diversity could lead to negative consequences in terms of adaptability, resistance and even consumption ...

MsWRKY49 Modulates Pollen Tube Elongation in Response to Boron Deficiency by Regulating Reactive Oxygen Species Homeostasis in Alfalfa

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Boron, an essential micronutrient, plays a crucial role in plant reproductive processes. Boron deficiency is widespread in many regions and significantly reduces alfalfa (Medicago sativa) seed yield, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying its impact on reproductive organ development remain elusive.

Rosmarinic Acid Synthase 1 Phosphorylation by SmMAPK3 Is Required for Salicylic Acid‐Induced Salvianolic Acid Accumulation in Salvia miltiorrhiza Hairy Roots

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Salvianolic acid is the main active component of Salvia miltiorrhiza and holds significant value in the clinical treatment of myocardial ischemia and hypoxia. Previous studies have shown that salicylic acid (SA) can significantly promote the accumulation of salvianolic acid, but its molecular mechanism remains incompletely understood.
