Plant genetic transformation: achievements, current status and future prospects

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Regeneration represents a fundamental biological process wherein an organism's tissues or organs repair and replace themselves following damage or environmental stress. In plant systems, injured tree branches can regenerate adventitious buds and develop new crowns through propagation techniques like cuttings and canopy pruning, while transgenic

Bivariate change point detection in movement direction and speed [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Biological movement patterns can sometimes be quasi linear with abrupt changes in direction and speed, as in plastids in root cells investigated here. For the analysis of such changes we propose a new stochastic model for movement along linear structures.

Dating the cyanobacterial ancestor of the chloroplast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Cyanobacteria have played a pivotal role in the history of life on Earth being the first organism to carry out oxygenic photosynthesis, which changed atmospheric chemistry and allowed the evolution of Eukarya.

TaFT‐D1 positively regulates grain weight by acting as a coactivator of TaFDL2 in wheat

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT), a multifunctional regulator in crops, modulates multiple key agronomic traits such as flowering time or heading date and plant height; however, its role in grain development regulation is unclear. Herein, through genome‐wide association studies (GWAS), we identified TaFT‐D1, which encodes a phosphatidylethanolamine ...

Expression of mannanase and glucanases in lettuce chloroplasts and functional evaluation of enzyme cocktail against Candida albicans in oral cancer patient samples

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Transplastomic expression of mannanase in lettuce and tobacco chloroplasts and inhibition of Candida albicans from oral cancer patient samples by plant enzyme cocktail. Summary Candida albicans is a human pathogen responsible for several diseases. C. albicans cell wall contains chitin, glucan and mannan.

Engineering Rubisco condensation in chloroplasts to manipulate plant photosynthesis

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Although Rubisco is the most abundant enzyme globally, it is inefficient for carbon fixation because of its low turnover rate and limited ability to distinguish CO2 and O2, especially under high O2 conditions. To address these limitations, phytoplankton, including cyanobacteria and algae, have evolved CO2‐concentrating mechanisms (CCM) that ...

Rubber biosynthesis drives the biogenesis and development of rubber particles, the rubber‐producing organelles

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Rubber particles (RPs) are specialized organelles for the biosynthesis and storage of natural rubber in rubber‐producing plants. However, the mechanisms underlying the biogenesis and development of RPs remain unclear. In this study, two latex‐specific cis‐prenyltransferases (CPTs), TkCPT1 and TkCPT2, were identified in Taraxacum kok‐saghyz ...
