The multidimensional regulation roles and mechanisms of calcium in fruit quality

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review explores how calcium signaling molecule integrates plant hormones, environmental cues, and developmental signals to influence external fruit traits, internal nutritional properties, and physiological disorders. ABSTRACT Calcium (Ca2+), a dual‐functional mineral that serves both as an essential structural factor and a signaling molecule ...

Effects of the magnesium and chloride ions and shikimate on the structure of shikimate kinase fromMycobacterium tuberculosis [PDF]

Acta Crystallographica Section F Structural Biology and Crystallization Communications, 2006
Bacteria, fungi and plants can convert carbohydrate and phosphoenolpyruvate into chorismate, which is the precursor of various aromatic compounds. The seven enzymes of the shikimate pathway are responsible for this conversion. Shikimate kinase (SK) is the fifth enzyme in this pathway and converts shikimate to shikimate-3-phosphate.

Expression of a bacterial 3-dehydroshikimate dehydratase reduces lignin content and improves biomass saccharification efficiency. [PDF]

, 2015
Lignin confers recalcitrance to plant biomass used as feedstocks in agro-processing industries or as source of renewable sugars for the production of bioproducts. The metabolic steps for the synthesis of lignin building blocks belong to the shikimate and

Cell‐type‐specific gating of gene regulatory modules as a hallmark of early immune responses in Arabidopsis leaves

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary In plants, multiple cell types contribute to immunity, but what division of labor exists among cell types when immunity is activated? We compared, at single‐cell resolution, the response of Arabidopsis thaliana leaf cells during pattern‐triggered and effector‐triggered immunity (PTI/ETI), sampled at 3 and 5 h after infection with Pseudomonas ...

SKL1 Is Essential for Chloroplast Development in Arabidopsis

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
The Arabidopsis shikimate kinase-like 1 (skl1-8) mutant is characterized by a pigment-defective phenotype. Although the related phenotypical defect mainly has been attributed to the blocking of chloroplast development, the molecular functions of SKL1 ...

The Kalanchoe genome provides insights into convergent evolution and building blocks of crassulacean acid metabolism [PDF]

, 2017
Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a water-use efficient adaptation of photosynthesis that has evolved independently many times in diverse lineages of flowering plants.

Jasmonate Modulates Strawberry Susceptibility to Anthracnose by Activating SnRK2.1 to Regulate the WRKY50‐JAZ5 Module

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Colletotrichum spp., hemibiotrophic fungal pathogens, threaten global strawberry production. Jasmonate (JA) regulates plant‐Colletotrichum interactions, but its mechanisms remain unclear. Here we demonstrate that both exogenous methyl jasmonate (MeJA) treatment and elevated endogenous MeJA levels increase strawberry susceptibility to ...

Host‐Induced Silencing of Rhizoctonia Solani 5‐Enolpyruvylshikimate‐3‐Phosphate Synthase Impairs Its Virulence in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sheath blight disease of rice caused by the fungal pathogen R. solani AG1‐IA remains a big threat to rice production worldwide. A limited genetic variation in rice for tolerance to this pathogen and little success in understanding how it defeats host defence are major reasons behind it.
