Structural analysis of a ligand‐triggered intermolecular disulfide switch in a major latex protein from opium poppy

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 80, Issue 9, Page 675-685, September 2024.
Crystal structures of two cysteine‐to‐serine mutants of PR10‐10 help to reveal how a ligand‐induced conformational change is coupled to the formation of intermolecular disulfide bonds in plant pathogenesis‐related family 10 proteins involved in the biosynthesis of benzylisoquinoline alkaloids.Several proteins from plant pathogenesis‐related family 10 ...

Taxonomic identity of Korean endemic Clematis taeguensis Y. N. Lee (Ranunculales: Ranunculaceae)

Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity, 2021
Clematis taeguensis Y. N. Lee (Ranunculaceae) was first collected from Beommul-dong, Daegu-si and described by Lee (1982) as endemic to Korea. Morphologically, it resembles C. terniflora DC. var. terniflora, C. terniflora var.

Aquilegia B gene homologs promote petaloidy of the sepals and maintenance of the C domain boundary

EvoDevo, 2017
The model Aquilegia coerulea x “Origami” possesses several interesting floral features, including petaloid sepals that are morphologically distinct from the true petals and a broad domain containing many whorls of stamens.

Project ChemicalBlooms: Collaborating with citizen scientists to survey the chemical diversity and phylogenetic distribution of plant epicuticular wax blooms

Plant Direct, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2024.
Abstract Plants use chemistry to overcome diverse challenges. A particularly striking chemical trait that some plants possess is the ability to synthesize massive amounts of epicuticular wax that accumulates on the plant's surfaces as a white coating visible to the naked eye.

Identifying predictors of translocation success in rare plant species

Conservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 2, April 2024.
Abstract The fundamental goal of a rare plant translocation is to create self‐sustaining populations with the evolutionary resilience to persist in the long term. Yet, most plant translocation syntheses focus on a few factors influencing short‐term benchmarks of success (e.g., survival and reproduction).

The legacy of terrestrial plant evolution on cell wall fine structure

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 47, Issue 4, Page 1238-1254, April 2024.
Abstract The evolution of land flora was an epochal event in the history of planet Earth. The success of plants, and especially flowering plants, in colonizing all but the most hostile environments required multiple mechanisms of adaptation. The mainly polysaccharide‐based cell walls of flowering plants, which are indispensable for water transport and ...

Nuclear phylogenomics of angiosperms and insights into their relationships and evolution

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 66, Issue 3, Page 546-578, March 2024.
This review synthesizes numerous nuclear phylogenomic analyses of angiosperms (analyses that resolved the relationships of major clades, most orders, and many families and subgroups) and discusses the improved understanding of angiosperm biogeography, diversification dynamics, and character evolution.

Predicting the potential distribution of 12 threatened medicinal plants on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau, with a maximum entropy model

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2024.
In this study, the MaxEnt model was used to predict the potential suitable area of 12 threatened medicinal plants in the QTP (Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau) under the current and future (2050s, 2070s) three climate scenarios (RCP2.6, RCP4.5, RCP8.5). We found that the climatically suitable habitats for the threatened medicinal plants were primarily found in ...

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Aconitum coreanum and Aconitum carmichaelii and comparative analysis with other Aconitum species.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Aconitum species (belonging to the Ranunculaceae) are well known herbaceous medicinal ingredients and have great economic value in Asian countries. However, there are still limited genomic resources available for Aconitum species.

Angiosperm‐wide analysis of fruit and ovary evolution aided by a new nuclear phylogeny supports association of the same ovary type with both dry and fleshy fruits

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 66, Issue 2, Page 228-251, February 2024.
Phylogenetic analysis and molecular dating elucidate relationships for orders and families, trace crown angiosperms’ Triassic origin, unveil parallel carpel fusions in early eudicots, monocots, and magnoliids and associate specific fruit types sharing the same ovary type.
