The decoration of specialized metabolites influences stylar development

eLife, 2018
Plants produce many different specialized (secondary) metabolites that function in solving ecological challenges; few are known to function in growth or other primary processes.

Tobacco rattle virus vector: A rapid and transient means of silencing manduca sexta genes by plant mediated RNA interference. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundRNAi can be achieved in insect herbivores by feeding them host plants stably transformed to express double stranded RNA (dsRNA) of selected midgut-expressed genes.

Genetic and environmental regulation of arbuscular mycorrhizal responsiveness in petunia: Implications for breeding and trait selection

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 1145-1158, June 2026.
Arbuscular mycorrhiza responsiveness varies strongly among Petunia species and RILs, representing a genetically determined trait with breeding potential that is nonetheless strongly modulated by environmental conditions. Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi enhance plant nutrition and stress tolerance, yet their agricultural use remains limited ...

Constraints to herbivore-induced systemic responses: Bidirectional signaling along orthostichies in Nicotiana attenuata

, 2003
We investigated the impact of leaf vascular connections on systemically transmitted herbivore-induced gene expression in Nicotiana attenuata. Although systemic signaling is clearly associated with the plant vascular system, few studies consider ...

Consistency of Nicotiana attenuata's herbivore- and jasmonate-induced transcriptional responses in the allotetraploid species Nicotiana quadrivalvis and Nicotiana clevelandii [PDF]

, 2004
We examined the consistency of the native diploid Nicotiana attenuata (Na)'s herbivore-induced transcriptional changes in the two allotetraploid natives, Nicotiana clevelandii (Nc) and Nicotiana quadrivalvis (Nq), which are thought to be derived from ...

SuperSAGE analysis of the Nicotiana attenuata transcriptome after fatty acid-amino acid elicitation (FAC): identification of early mediators of insect responses

BMC Plant Biology, 2010
Background Plants trigger and tailor defense responses after perception of the oral secretions (OS) of attacking specialist lepidopteran larvae. Fatty acid-amino acid conjugates (FACs) in the OS of the Manduca sexta larvae are necessary and sufficient to

Isolation and characterization of the threonine deaminase promoter in Nicotiana attenuata

, 2006
The enzyme encoded by the threonine deaminase (TD) gene catalyzes the conversion of threonine to a-keto butyrate in the biosynthesis of isoleucine (Ile).

Diving Into Reef Ecosystems for Land-Agriculture Solutions: Coral Microbiota Can Alleviate Salt Stress During Germination and Photosynthesis in Terrestrial Plants

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
From their chemical nature to their ecological interactions, coral reef ecosystems have a lot in common with highly productive terrestrial ecosystems.

Silencing an N-acyltransferase-like involved in lignin biosynthesis in Nicotiana attenuata dramatically alters herbivory-induced phenolamide metabolism. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
In a transcriptomic screen of Manduca sexta-induced N-acyltransferases in leaves of Nicotiana attenuata, we identified an N-acyltransferase gene sharing a high similarity with the tobacco lignin-biosynthetic hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA:shikimate/quinate ...

Protoplast‐Based Functional Genomics and Genome Editing: Progress, Challenges and Applications

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 2183-2199, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Protoplast‐based systems provide a powerful and versatile platform for exploring how plants sense and respond to their environment. By enabling the direct delivery of proteins, DNA, and RNA into plant cells after cell wall removal, this approach facilitates precise molecular dissection of signaling, stress adaptation, and gene regulation ...
