Revealing evolution of tropane alkaloid biosynthesis by analyzing two genomes in the Solanaceae family

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Tropane alkaloids (TAs) are synthesized by some species in Solanaceae. Here, the authors assemble the genomes of two representative TAs producing species, show that gene loss shapes uneven distribution of TAs in Solanaceae, and identify a cytochrome P450

Improving the efficiency of Rubisco by resurrecting its ancestors in the family Solanaceae

open access: yesScience Advances, 2022
Plants and photosynthetic organisms have a remarkably inefficient enzyme named Rubisco that fixes atmospheric CO2 into organic compounds. Understanding how Rubisco has evolved in response to past climate change is important for attempts to adjust plants ...

Wolfberry genomes and the evolution of Lycium (Solanaceae)

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Wolfberry Lycium , an economically important genus of the Solanaceae family, contains approximately 80 species and shows a fragmented distribution pattern among the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Although several herbaceous species of Solanaceae have

A chromosome-anchored eggplant genome sequence reveals key events in Solanaceae evolution

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
With approximately 450 species, spiny Solanum species constitute the largest monophyletic group in the Solanaceae family, but a high-quality genome assembly from this group is presently missing.

Plant Viruses Infecting Solanaceae Family Members in the Cultivated and Wild Environments: A Review

open access: yesPlants, 2020
Plant viruses infecting crop species are causing long-lasting economic losses and are endangering food security worldwide. Ongoing events, such as climate change, changes in agricultural practices, globalization of markets or changes in plant virus ...

Receptor-like leucine-rich repeat kinases of subfamily III are involved in the recognition of Pectobacterium spp. by Solanaceae plants [PDF]

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции
The genomes of Solanaceae plants contain over 600 receptor-like protein kinase genes with leucine-rich repeats (LRR-RLK), many likely associated with pathogen detection, but very few functionally characterized. Pectobacterium spp. are the major bacterial

Insight into the evolution of the Solanaceae from the parental genomes of Petunia hybrida

open access: yesNature Plants, 2016
Petunia hybrida is a popular bedding plant that has a long history as a genetic model system. We report the whole-genome sequencing and assembly of inbred derivatives of its two wild parents, P. axillaris N and P. inflata S6. The assemblies include 91.3%

A Review of Bioinsecticidal Activity of Solanaceae Alkaloids

open access: yesToxins, 2016
Only a small percentage of insect species are pests. However, pest species cause significant losses in agricultural and forest crops, and many are vectors of diseases.
