Disruption of Asparagine Synthetase Is Associated to Increased Biomass in Lotus japonicus
ABSTRACT Asparagine (Asn) constitutes the major form of nitrogen translocated within Lotus japonicus plants. In this work we use knock‐out (KO) LORE1 mutants‐deficient in the asparagine synthetase gene (LjASN1), which is the most highly expressed ASN gene in plants grown under non‐symbiotic (NS) conditions, but much less expressed under symbiotic (S ...

Expression analysis of ROS scavenging enzyme encoding genes in rubber tree infected by Microcyclus ulei [PDF]
South American Leaf Blight (SALB), caused by the ascomycete Microcyclus ulei is responsible for the low productivity of rubber tree in Latin America and represents an important threat for rubber plantations in Asia and Africa, where production is derived

ABSTRACT Ethylene is a key gaseous phytohormone that plays crucial roles in regulating plant growth, development and stress responses. However, ethylene‐associated biosynthetic and transcriptional regulatory mechanisms governing cold‐adaptation responses in plants remain poorly understood.

Downregulation of Squalene Synthase Broadly Impacts Isoprenoid Biosynthesis in Guayule
Production of natural rubber by Parthenium argentaum (guayule) requires increased yield for economic sustainability. An RNAi gene silencing strategy was used to engineer isoprenoid biosynthesis by downregulation of squalene synthase (SQS), such that the ...

ABSTRACT Little is known about regulatory mechanisms that crop plants use to respond to combinations of abiotic and biotic stress. We analysed four barley genotypes under simultaneous Fusarium culmorum infection and drought stress by phenotyping for Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) disease, drought stress responses, hormone profiling and transcriptome ...
