Cadmium Toxicity and its Effects on Growth and Metal Nutrient Ion Accumulation in Solanaceae Plants
The effect of cadmium Cd toxicity was studied in four Solanaceae plants tomato, Solanum lycopersicum L.; pepper, Capsicum annuum L.; eggplant, Solanum melongena L., and goldenberry, Physalis peruviana L.

Comparative analysis of chloroplast genomes from 14 genera of Thymelaeaceae revealed variation in gene content, ranging from 128 to 142 genes, primarily influenced by IR expansion/contraction events and pseudogenization of ndhF, ndhI, and ndhG. Two large inversions were detected within the large single‐copy region, including a synapomorphic inversion ...

A universal primer for isolation of fragments of a gene encoding phytoene desaturase for use in virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) studies [PDF]
We have been using Virus-Induced Gene Silencing (VIGS) to test the function of genes that are candidates for involvement in floral senescence. Although VIGS is a powerful tool for assaying the effects of gene silencing in plants, relatively few taxa have

We investigated the toxicity of 12 active compounds commonly found in herbal weight loss supplements (WLS) using human liver and colon cell models. Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate was the only compound showing significant toxicity. Metabolic profiling revealed protein degradation, disrupted energy and lipid metabolism suggesting that the inclusion of EGCG ...

Regulation of invertase and sucrose for improving tomato fruit flavor: A review
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is a commercially farmed vegetable belonging to the Solanaceae family, the third most important vegetable after potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) and onion (Allium cepa L.). It is cultivated for its fresh fruits and processed

Species concepts and relationships in wild and cultivated potatoes [PDF]
Wild and cultivated potatoes (Solanum section Petota) present challenges to taxonomists arising from lack of clearly defined morphological character differences among many species, phenotypic plasticity, a range of ploidy levels from diploid to hexaploid,

Terzyme: a tool for identification and analysis of the plant terpenome. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Terpenoid hydrocarbons represent the largest and most ancient group of phytochemicals, such that the entire chemical library of a plant is often referred to as its 'terpenome'.

ToCV‐encoded p22 targets chloroplast plastoglobules (PGs) via directly binding PG structural protein FBN1.1, reducing the size of PG and inhibiting α‐tocopherol biosynthesis via competing with tocopherol cyclase (VTE1). Consequently, the elevated chloroplast ROS not only creates a suitable cellular environment for efficient ToCV infection but also ...

Study of oviposition and host plant finding of tomato leaf miner, Tuta absoluta (Lep.:Gelechiidae) in laboratory conditions [PDF]
Tomato leaf miner, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) is a key and dangerous pest of Solanaceous plants in Iran. Larvae of the pest cause damage on different parts of host plants including leaves, stems, and fruits.

The Genetic Wiring of Plant Trichomes: From Initiation to Fate Specification
Plant trichomes are not just simple hairs but metabolic powerhouses shaped by complex genetic programs. While the MYB‐bHLH‐WD40 module is well studied in Arabidopsis, recent findings reveal that HD‐Zip IV transcription factors drive multicellular and glandular trichome development through dose‐dependent mechanisms.
