Integrative analysis of transcriptome and metabolome reveals how ethylene increases natural rubber yield in Hevea brasiliensis [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceHevea brasiliensis is an important cash crop with the product named natural rubber (NR) for markets. Ethylene (ET) is the most effective yield stimulant in NR production but the molecular mechanism remains incomplete.

Characterization of cis-polyisoprene produced in Periploca sepium, a novel promising alternative source of natural rubber [PDF]
Communications BiologyNatural rubber is an important industrial raw material and is almost exclusively produced from Hevea brasiliensis latex. Because H. brasiliensis is limited its cultivation to specific tropical regions, the insufficient capacity of natural rubber has ...

Investigating the biosynthesis of natural rubber through the characterisation of rubber associated proteins. [PDF]
Natural rubber from the para rubber tree Hevea brasiliensis is one of world’s most important natural resources. Despite its use in the manufacture of a wide range of essential items the mechanisms by which natural rubber is synthesised is poorly ...

Effect of drought stress on natural rubber biosynthesis and quality in Taraxacum kok-saghyz roots. [PDF]
PLoS OneTaraxacum kok-saghyz (TKS) is a potential source of natural rubber (NR) that can be grown in temperate regions with limited water availability. However, the effect of drought stress on NR production and properties in TKS isn’t well studied. This study examined how different levels of drought stress (30, 60 and 90%) influenced the NR content, molecular ...
