Valorisation of Proteins from Rubber Tree [PDF]
Waste and Biomass Valorization, 2016 The objective of this study was to identify the availability, possible applications, and economic potential of proteins that are present in different parts of the rubber tree. Proteins from non-food sources can be used in e.g. animal feed or biochemicals production with no or little competition with food production, rendering them important biobased ...

BMC Plant Biology, 2019 Background Sucrose (Suc), as the precursor molecule for rubber biosynthesis in Hevea brasiliensis, is transported via phloem-mediated long-distance transport from leaves to laticifers in trunk bark, where latex (cytoplasm of laticifers) is tapped for ...

The tree that responds: taming the rubber tree [PDF]
Vibrant: Virtual Brazilian Anthropology, 2019 Abstract The starting point of this article is the assertion, common among tappers (or seringueiros) in plantations in the interior of São Paulo, that it is necessary to tame rubber trees (Hevea brasiliensis) at the beginning of each harvest. They use this phrase to indicate the need to accustom the trees, from the first cuts, to establish an optimal ...

Frontiers in Genetics, 2019 Jasmonate signaling plays a vital role in the regulation of secondary laticifer differentiation and natural rubber biosynthesis in Hevea brasiliensis. Jasmonate ZIM-domain (JAZ) proteins are the master regulators of jasmonate signaling.

SNP identification from RNA sequencing and linkage map construction of rubber tree for anchoring the draft genome. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Hevea brasiliensis, or rubber tree, is an important crop species that accounts for the majority of natural latex production. The rubber tree nuclear genome consists of 18 chromosomes and is roughly 2.15 Gb.

Leaf anatomy of rubber-tree clones [PDF]
Scientia Agricola, 2003 Rubber trees are easily recognizable for being woody, medium to large-sized plants, having a typical deciduous behavior, and especially because they produce latex. The purpose of this work was to study the anatomy and morphology of the leaf, comparing rubber tree &91;Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. ex Adr.

Comparative analysis of latex transcriptome reveals putative molecular mechanisms underlying super productivity of Hevea brasiliensis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Increasing demand for natural rubber prompts studies into the mechanisms governing the productivity of rubber tree (Heveabrasiliensis). It is very interesting to notice that a rubber tree of clone PR107 in Yunnan, China is reported to yield more than 20 ...

Identification of Natural Rubber and Characterization of Rubber Biosynthetic Activity in Fig Tree [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2000 Abstract Natural rubber was extracted from the fig tree (Ficus carica) cultivated in Korea as part of a survey of rubber producing plants. Fourier transform infrared and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance analysis of samples prepared by successive extraction with acetone and benzene confirmed that the benzene-soluble residues are natural ...
