Rubisco evolution in C4 eudicots: an analysis of Amaranthaceae sensu lato [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND Rubisco (ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase) catalyses the key reaction in the photosynthetic assimilation of CO₂. In C₄ plants CO₂ is supplied to Rubisco by an auxiliary CO₂-concentrating pathway that helps to maximize the ...

TaPHL7 Transcription Factor Regulates Utilisation of Nitrogen and Phosphorus in Wheat
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2522-2537, April 2026.ABSTRACT Macronutrients nitrogen and phosphorus are essential for plant growth and development, thus being crucial for the productivity of crops. However, the molecular mechanism regulating the utilisation of nitrogen and phosphorus remains elusive. Here, we show that the wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) transcription factor PHOSPHATE STARVATION RESPONSE ...

Plastid Engineering for Photosynthesis‐Driven Synthesis of Hyaluronic Acid in Tobacco
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2541-2558, April 2026.ABSTRACT Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a glycosaminoglycan composed of alternating units of N‐acetylglucosamine and glucuronic acid. High moisture retention, viscoelasticity and biocompatibility are unique features that make HA polymers attractive compounds for medical applications and aesthetic purposes.
