Deciphering rubber biosynthesis using genome editing and artificial miRNA in Hevea brasiliensis

, 2021
The rubber tree is the only source of natural rubber exploited on an industrial scale. Natural rubber has been placed on the list of strategic materials for Europe since 2017.

Integrating physiological and transcriptomic analyses identifies key regulators of latex regeneration in Hevea brasiliensis

Industrial Crops and Products
The rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis Muell. Arg.) represents the primary commercial source of natural rubber worldwide. Rubber yield in this species is critically dependent on latex regeneration capacity, which varies substantially among clones such as ...

Natural rubber biosynthesis pathway in plants.

The monomer isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) is derived from two sources: the mevalonic acid (MVA) pathway and the methylerythritol (MEP) pathway. IPP is converted to dimethylallyl pyrophosphate (DMAPP) by IPP-isomerase. DMAPP and IPP are then polymerized

Electronic Activation and Inhibition of Natural Rubber Biosynthesis Catalyzed by a Complex Heterologous Membrane-Bound Complex

Processes
Natural rubber biosynthesis is catalyzed by a unilamella membrane-bound heterologous complex with multiple different subunits (rubber transferase, RTase). Two substrates and divalent metal cation activators are required, and their concentrations affect biosynthetic rate and polymer molecular weight.

Genome-Wide Identification of AP2/ERF Family Genes in Rubber Tree: Two HbAP2/ERF Genes Regulate the Expression of Multiple Natural Rubber Biosynthesis Genes

Agronomy
The AP2/ERF (APETALA2/ethylene-responsive factor) superfamily is one of the largest transcription factor families in plants and is not only vital for plant growth and development but also participates in responding to various abiotic stresses. However, few studies have investigated the function of the AP2/ERF gene family in natural rubber (NR ...

Genome-wide identification of HbVQ proteins and their interaction with HbWRKY14 to regulate the expression of HbSRPP in Hevea brasiliensis

BMC Genomics
Background Valine-glutamine motif-containing proteins (VQ proteins) play important roles in plant growth, development and response to stress. However, information on the VQ gene family in rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis Muell. Arg.) is limited.
