E151 (sym15), A Pleiotropic Mutant of Pea (Pisum sativum L.), Displays Low Nodule Number, Enhanced Mycorrhizae, Delayed Lateral Root Emergence, and High Root Cytokinin Levels [PDF]

, 2015
In legumes, the formation of rhizobial and mycorrhizal root symbioses is a highly regulated process which requires close communication between plant and microorganism.

Photoluminescence Properties of Lignin With a Genetically Introduced Luminophore in a Transgenic Hybrid Aspen That Overproduces Feruloyl‐CoA 6′‐Hydroxylase

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lignin, a major cell‐wall component of woody biomass, exhibits photoluminescent (PL) properties. Controlling the intensity and colour of the PL is essential for producing lignin‐based value‐added materials. Herein, we modify the PL properties of lignin via genetic engineering of novel luminophore structures. Feruloyl‐CoA 6′‐hydroxylase (F6′H1)

Genome-wide analysis of autophagy-related genes in Medicago truncatula highlights their roles in seed development and response to drought stress

Scientific Reports, 2021
Autophagy is a highly conserved process of degradation of cytoplasmic constituents in eukaryotes. It is involved in the growth and development of plants, as well as in biotic and abiotic stress response.

The Rhus chinensis Genome Provides Insights Into Tannin, Flavonoid Biosynthesis, and Glandular Trichome Development

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The “salt tree”, Rhus chinensis, holds significant economic and medicinal value due to its ability to produce Galla chinensis (Chinese gall/gallnut), a plant‐derived medicinal material used in both traditional Chinese and modern medicine that is rich in tannins and flavonoids. It is also renowned for its remarkable stress tolerance.

CsYABBY1 and CsMYB114 Enhance Acquired Drought Tolerance by Mediating Flavonoid Biosynthesis in Camellia sinensis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought priming is a critical agronomic strategy for enhancing plant drought tolerance, yet the optimal priming intensity and transcriptional regulatory mechanisms underlying subsequent drought responses in the tea plant (Camellia sinensis) remain poorly characterised.

Synthetic Biology and Metabolic Engineering of Microalgae for Sustainable Lipid and Terpenoid Production: An Updated Perspective

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microalgae are increasingly recognised as powerful platforms for the sustainable production of lipids and terpenoids, with expanding applications in the food, fuel and biomanufacturing industries. In this updated review, we consolidate and critically assess the most recent advances in synthetic biology and metabolic engineering of key ...

Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of the 14-3-3 Family Genes in Medicago truncatula

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
The 14-3-3 gene family, which is conserved in eukaryotes, is involved in protein-protein interactions and mediates signal transduction. However, detailed investigations of the 14-3-3 gene family in Medicago truncatula are largely unknown.
