Progress and Challenges in Faba Bean Genetic Engineering
Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Legumes are essential for global food security, serving as a vital source of plant‐based protein and playing a significant role in sustainable agricultural practices. Among legumes, faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is noteworthy due to its high‐protein content, broad climate adaptation, and suitability for cultivation in temperate regions.

Phytoene accumulation in sunflower decreases the transcript levels of the phytoene synthase gene
, 2006 The non dormant-1 (nd-1) mutant of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) and fluridone-treated plants were used to investigate the effect of phytoene accumulation on the transcript levels of the phytoene synthase (Ha-PSY) gene. A deficiency at the gene coding

Genome Editing in Root and Tuber Crop Development in Sub‐Saharan Africa
Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT Precision genome editing, particularly using Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR‐associated protein 9 (Cas9), is advancing crop improvement by enabling targeted and efficient genetic modifications. Root and tuber crops such as potato, cassava, sweet potato, and yam are vital for global food and nutritional

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a globally important cereal crop which provides ∼20% calories in human diet. Identifying genes and elucidating their functions is still challenging in wheat due to its large genome (∼16 Gb) with significant amount of repetitive elements.

Phytoene and phytofluene overproduction by Dunaliella salina using the mitosis inhibitor chlorpropham [PDF]
, 2020 The halotolerant chlorophyte microalga, Dunaliella salina, is one of the richest sources of carotenoids and will accumulate up to 10% of the dry biomass as β-carotene, depending on the integrated amount of light to which the alga is exposed during a ...

A New Non-Radioactive Assay of Phytoene Desaturase to Evaluate Bleaching Herbicides
Zeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 1996 Abstract A non-radioactive cell-free assay was developed to quantitatively determine inhibition of plant-type phytoene desaturase by bleaching herbicides. An active desaturase was prepared from an appropriately cloned E. coli transformant. Another E. coli transformant was used to produce the required phytoene. Phytofluene and t-carotene,
