Involvement of Ethylene in the Latex Metabolism and Tapping Panel Dryness of Hevea brasiliensis [PDF]
Ethephon, an ethylene releaser, is used to stimulate latex production in Hevea brasiliensis. Ethylene induces many functions in latex cells including the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Meta-analysis of a large industrial latex diagnosis database provides insight on Hevea brasiliensis clonal adaptation and site-specific yield potential in Western Africa [PDF]
A meta-analysis of the Latex Diagnosis (LD) database gathering all LD data stored from 2006 to 2018 in SIFCA/SIPH plantations of Côte d'Ivoire (SAPH), Ghana (GREL) and Nigeria (RENL) has been performed.

Gene expression analysis for identifying candidate genes for controlling oxidative stress in rubber tree [PDF]
Hevea brasiliensis is the main source of natural rubber which is biosynthesized in latex cells. The high metabolic productivity required for latex regeneration after each tapping can be enhanced by ethylene application, which optimizes the production ...

Physiological Evidence for Isopotential Tunneling in the Electron Transport Chain of Methane-Producing Archaea [PDF]
Many, but not all, organisms use quinones to conserve energy in their electron transport chains. Fermentative bacteria and methane-producing archaea (methanogens) do not produce quinones but have devised other ways to generate ATP. Methanophenazine (MPh)

Transcriptome comparison of resistant and suscentible Hevea brasiliensis cultivars infected by Microcyclus ulei [PDF]
- Background and Aims South American Leaf Blight (SALB) is caused by an ascomycota, Microcyclus ulei (P. Henn.) v. Arx., and is the most damaging disease in Latin America and the most important threat for rubber tree plantations in Asia and Africa which ...
