Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Preharvest potassium silicate treatments influence the morphological appearance and enhance nutritional composition of almond kernels

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The almond industry requires new strategies to improve almond kernel quality. The use of biostimulants such as potassium silicate (KSi) is an eco‐friendly and non‐polluting alternative. The aim of this work was to investigate the preharvest application of KSi solutions at 2 and 20 mmol L−1 to ‘Peraleja’ almond trees during two ...

Coordinate Expression of Rubisco Activase and Rubisco during Barley Leaf Cell Development [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1989
We have utilized the cellular differentiation gradient and photomorphogenic responses of the first leaf of 7-day-old barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) to examine the accumulation of mRNA and protein encoded by the ribulose-1,5-biphosphate carboxylase holoenzyme (rubisco) activase gene (rca).

Phenotypic landscape inference reveals multiple evolutionary paths to C$_4$ photosynthesis [PDF]

, 2013
C$_4$ photosynthesis has independently evolved from the ancestral C$_3$ pathway in at least 60 plant lineages, but, as with other complex traits, how it evolved is unclear.

Mineral Speciation for CO2 Captured by Potassium Hydroxide

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
Multimodal and deconvolution analysis of the crystalline and amorphous mineral products from the rapid capture of CO2 in aqueous, aqueous‐ethanol, and aqueous‐acetone solutions of potassium hydroxide by complementary single‐crystal and powder X‐ray diffraction, and high field 1H, 13C, and 39K NMR, provides new insight into the speciation of both KHCO3‐

Regulation of Leaf Senescence by Cytokinin, Sugars, and Light. Effects on NADH-Dependent Hydroxypyruvate Reductase [PDF]

, 1998
The aim of this study was to investigate the interactions between cytokinin, sugar repression, and light in the senescence-related decline in photosynthetic enzymes of leaves. In transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants that induce the production of

Proteomic Analysis of Chloroplast-to-Chromoplast Transition in Tomato Reveals Metabolic Shifts Coupled with Disrupted Thylakoid Biogenesis Machinery and Elevated Energy-Production Components [PDF]

, 2012
A comparative proteomic approach was performed to identify differentially expressed proteins in plastids at three stages of tomato(Solanum lycopersicum) fruit ripening (mature-green, breaker, red). Stringent curation and processing of the data from three

Rubisco small subunits of C4 plants, Napier grass and guinea grass confer C4-like catalytic properties on Rubisco in rice

Plant Production Science, 2019
Overexpression of Rubisco small subunit (RbcS) of C4 plant, sorghum (sorghum bicolor) was shown to enhance the catalytic turnover rate (kcat) of Rubisco in rice (Oryza sativa).
