3‐Methyl‐1‐Butanol Enhances Postharvest Resistance of Red Grapes to Botrytis cinerea by Activating Phenylpropanoid Metabolism and Antioxidant Defences

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grey mould, caused by Botrytis cinerea, is a significant postharvest disease leading to substantial economic losses in the grape industry. This study investigated the regulatory mechanism of 3‐methyl‐1‐butanol (3M1B), a yeast volatile substance, on B. cinerea resistance in red grapes (Vitis vinifera L.).

Phenolic compounds and phenylalanine ammonia lyase activity in two soybean (Glycine max L. cv. Mandarin) cell lines that differ in their ploidy levels

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
Through this preliminary experiment examining different color expressions in two soybean cell lines, SB1, and SB3 several important features were observed. SB3 cells, which produce much more dark brown pigments in both suspension and callus cultures, had

Study on russet-related enzymatic activity and gene expression in ‘Shine Muscat’ grape treated with GA3 and CPPU

Journal of Plant Interactions, 2018
Physiological (metabolite analysis) and molecular (gene expression) approaches were used to understand the mechanism underlying russet formation in response to the application of GA3 and CPPU (Forchlorfenuron) in a Japanese table grape cultivar ‘Shine ...

Relationships and Interactions between Phenylalanine Ammonia-lyase, Phenylalanine Ammonia-lyase Inactivating System, and Anthocyanin in Apples1

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.

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.

Molecular cloning, expression, and subcellular localization of a PAL gene from Citrus reticulata under iron deficiency

Biologia Plantarum, 2016
Phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) is a specific branch point enzyme of primary and secondary metabolism. The Citrus reticulata Blanco PAL gene was cloned and designated as CrPAL1. The cDNA sequence of CrPAL1 was 2 166 bp, encoding 721 amino acid residues.

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.

QTL Mapping of Several Seed Quality Traits in the DH Population NPZ06 × NPZ09 (Brassica napus L.) for Marker‐Assisted Selection

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.
