Biochemical phosphorus allocation is linked to photosynthetic phosphorus‐use efficiency in a phosphorus‐impoverished environment

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Highly efficient phosphorus (P)‐use strategies have evolved in plants, allowing them to thrive in severely P‐impoverished environments. However, it remains unclear how allocating leaf P to biochemical fractions, including specific P‐containing metabolites, contributes to instantaneous photosynthetic P‐use efficiency (iPPUE) and the position of ...

Dandelion (Taraxacum mongolicum Hand.-Mazz.) Supplementation-Enhanced Rumen Fermentation through the Interaction between Ruminal Microbiome and Metabolome

Microorganisms, 2020
This study investigated the effects of dandelion on the ruminal metabolome and microbiome in lactating dairy cows. A total of 12 mid-lactation dairy cows were selected and randomly classified into two groups, supplementing dandelion with 0 (CON) and 200 ...

Ribulose-Peptide in Human Semen: II. Synthesis [PDF]

Archives of Andrology, 1978
In order to study the metabolism of a naturally occurring peptide containing D-ribulose in the semen, a pathway of D-ribulose synthesis from radioactively labeled glucose was analyzed. Semen obtained from ten healthy adults was used in this study. The seminal fluid of each person sampled was divided into two equal parts and each one was incubated with ...

Metabolo‐Transcriptomics Analyses Reveal Alfalfa Adaptation to Combined Saline‐Alkali and Low‐Temperature Stress in the Field

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is known as the ‘King of Forage’ because of its high protein content and excellent palatability. Alfalfa productivity is adversely affected in cold regions with saline‐alkali soils. However, the mechanisms underlying the response of alfalfa to combined saline‐alkali and low‐temperature stress under field conditions

Metabolomic and Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Analyses Shed Light on Secondary Metabolite Profiling and Potential Developmental Dynamics of Glandular Trichomes in Artemisia argyi

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant glandular trichomes (GTs) are characterised by their ability to synthesise and store abundant secondary metabolites of significant biological importance. The medicinal plant Artemisia argyi exhibits a dense covering of GTs, yet the precise metabolic compositions and the developmental molecular dynamics of A.

Synthetic CO2-fixation enzyme cascades immobilized on self-assembled nanostructures that enhance CO2/O2 selectivity of RubisCO

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017
Background With increasing concerns over global warming and depletion of fossil-fuel reserves, it is attractive to develop innovative strategies to assimilate CO2, a greenhouse gas, into usable organic carbon. Cell-free systems can be designed to operate

Modeling Light Response of Electron Transport Rate and Its Allocation for Ribulose Biphosphate Carboxylation and Oxygenation

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Accurately describing the light response curve of electron transport rate (J–I curve) and allocation of electron flow for ribulose biphosphate (RuBP) carboxylation (JC–I curve) and that for oxygenation (JO–I curve) is fundamental for modeling of light ...

ZmTH1 Is Vital for Healthy Plant Growth and Promotes Cold/Drought Tolerance by Regulating Thiamin Diphosphate‐Dependent Metabolisms in Maize

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vitamin B1 (VB1) plays a crucial role in sustaining plant health and enabling adaptive responses to environmental stress. The complex maize genome implies a sophisticated VB1 synthesis pathway, with the mechanisms by which VB1 benefits plants remaining elusive.

BolAG‐BolRPI2‐BolBAM4 Module Regulates the Bolting of Curd by Modulating Starch Metabolism in Broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. italica)

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The curd is a unique indeterminate inflorescence structure, which is the most important edible organ of broccoli. Premature bolting of the curd is a major factor that limits the yield and marketability of broccoli. However, the formation and development of broccoli curd, especially the bolting of curd, remain poorly understood.
