Different Growth and Physiological Responses to Cadmium of the Three Miscanthus Species. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Miscanthus has been proposed as a promising crop for phytoremediation due to its high biomass yield and remarkable adaptability to different environments. However, little is known about the resistance of Miscanthus spp. to cadmium (Cd).

CO2 recycling by phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase enables cassava leaf metabolism to tolerate low water availability

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Cassava is a staple crop that acclimatizes well to dry weather and limited water availability. The drought response mechanism of quick stomatal closure observed in cassava has no explicit link to the metabolism connecting its physiological response and ...

A Partial C4 Photosynthetic Biochemical Pathway in Rice

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Introduction of a C4 photosynthetic pathway into C3 rice (Oryza sativa) requires installation of a biochemical pump that concentrates CO2 at the site of carboxylation in modified bundle sheath cells. To investigate the feasibility of this, we generated a

Evidence of coexistence of C₃ and C₄ photosynthetic pathways in a green-tide-forming alga, Ulva prolifera. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Ulva prolifera, a typical green-tide-forming alga, can accumulate a large biomass in a relatively short time period, suggesting that photosynthesis in this organism, particularly its carbon fixation pathway, must be very efficient.

Conservation and Divergence of Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase Gene Family in Cotton

Plants, 2022
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) is an important enzyme in plants, which regulates carbon flow through the TCA cycle and controls protein and oil biosynthesis. Although it is important, there is little research on PEPC in cotton, the most important

Effects of Citric Acid and Humic-like Substances on Yield, Enzyme Activities, and Expression of Genes Involved in Iron Uptake in Tomato Plants

Horticulturae, 2023
Iron (Fe) deficiency is a common abiotic stress on plants growing in calcareous soils where low organic matter content, high carbonate–bicarbonate concentration, and high pH precipitate Fe in unavailable forms.

Genome-Wide Identification and Analysis of the Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase Gene Family in Suaeda aralocaspica, an Annual Halophyte With Single-Cellular C4 Anatomy

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) plays pivotal roles in the carbon fixation of photosynthesis and a variety of metabolic and stress pathways. Suaeda aralocaspica belongs to a single-cellular C4 species and carries out a photosynthetic pathway in an

Silencing of SbPPCK1-3 Negatively Affects Development, Stress Responses and Productivity in Sorghum

Plants, 2023
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) plays central roles in photosynthesis, respiration, amino acid synthesis, and seed development. PEPC is regulated by different post-translational modifications.

Structural, functional, and phylogenetic characterization of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) in C₄and CAM plants

Caryologia, 2018
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC; EC 4.1.1.31) is an enzyme in the family of carboxylyases found in plants and some bacteria, but not in fungi or animals.
