Novel plant cell suspension platforms for saffron apocarotenoid production and its impact on carotenoid and volatile profiles

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 9, Page 3903-3918, September 2025.
Summary Saffron apocarotenoids, including crocins, picrocrocin and safranal, are valuable metabolites with pharmaceutical and cosmetic potential. However, their natural plant sources are difficult to cultivate, which limits large‐scale production. The identification of carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs), which catalyse the first and most critical ...

Field selection of elite events of East African highland bananas expressing elevated levels of pro‐vitamin A

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 9, Page 3713-3726, September 2025.
Summary Biofortification of staple crops is a sustainable strategy to deliver essential micronutrients to impoverished populations in developing countries. Banana is a highly valued crop consumed by over 75% of Ugandans. However, the starchy green cooking bananas have very low levels of pro‐vitamin A (PVA) and heavy dietary reliance on them has been ...

Breeding triple‐advantage cottonseed with higher yield, enhanced nutrition, and reduced toxicity by redirecting terpenoid metabolism to astaxanthin

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 7, Page 2839-2851, July 2025.
Summary Cottonseed is a valuable source of edible oil and protein, but its utilization is limited by high gossypol content. In this study, we engineered cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) to biosynthesize astaxanthin through both single‐gene (CrBKT) and multi‐gene (CrBKT, ZmPSY1, PaCrtI, HpCrtZ) expression strategies.

Additional file 12. Phylogenetic analysis of orphan Hcp proteins found in the genome sequence of sequenced strains of Pantoea ananatis

, 2014
This figure shows the evolutionary history of the Hcp proteins of Pantoea ananatis. Evolutionary history was inferred using the Maximum likelihood method based on the rtRev amino acid substitution model. The analysis includes mostly “orphan” Hcp proteins

Genomic variability of Pantoea ananatis in maize white spot lesions assessed by AFLP markers. [PDF]

, 2017
Measures to control maize white spot (MWS) caused by Pantoea ananatis are preferentially based on resistant cultivars. A lack of knowledge on the genetic variability of pathogens could interfere with the development and utilization of controlling ...
