Induction of Systemic Resistance by Trichoderma Asperellum against Bacterial Wilt of Tomato Caused by Ralstonia Solanacearum [PDF]
, 2013 Trichoderma asperellum was used as a biological control agent against bacterial wilt disease caused by Ralstonia solanacearum. The present investigation is focused on the role of defense- related enzymes in imparting resistance to tomato against ...

Production of curcuminoids from tyrosine by a metabolically engineered Escherichia coli using caffeic acid as an intermediate [PDF]
, 2014 Curcuminoids are phenylpropanoids with high pharmaceutical potential. Herein, we report an engineered artificial pathway in Escherichia coli to produce natural curcuminoids through caffeic acid.

WRKY Transcription Factors: Integral Regulators of Defence Responses to Biotic Stress in Crops
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Crops are continually challenged by biotic stresses, including fungal, bacterial and viral pathogens and insect pests, which cause substantial yield and quality losses worldwide. WRKY transcription factors constitute a plant‐specific and functionally diverse family that is central to immune regulation.

Genomic and experimental evidence for multiple metabolic functions in the RidA/YjgF/YER057c/UK114 (Rid) protein family. [PDF]
, 2015 BackgroundIt is now recognized that enzymatic or chemical side-reactions can convert normal metabolites to useless or toxic ones and that a suite of enzymes exists to mitigate such metabolite damage.

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 1979 Abstract Low temperature (6°C) in light stimulated the accumulation of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) and anthocyanin and reduced the level of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase inactivating system (PALS-IS) in the skin of whole apples.

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Enhancing nutritional quality of oilseed rape requires deeper insight into the genetic control of seed quality traits. This study analysed the effect of varying soil phosphorus (P) levels on seed quality traits in the hybrid cultivar Architect. NIRS and laboratory methods were used to quantify total seed P and phytic acid (IP6) content.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Isoflavones, secondary metabolites with numerous health benefits, are predominantly found in legume seeds, especially soybean; however, their contents in domesticated soybean seeds are highly variable. Wild soybeans are known for higher seed isoflavone contents than cultivars. Here we used experimental and modelling approaches on wild soybean (
