A chalcone synthase/stilbene synthase DNA probe for conifers

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1996
A probe for chalcone synthase (CHS) was generated by PCR using chalcone synthase conserved sequences. The cloned PCR product has high similarity to both chalcone synthase and stilbene synthase sequences. The probe was used to examine the organization of chalcone synthase and stilbene synthase genes in Abies procera, Pinus lambertiana, P.

Grapevine clones discriminated using stilbene synthase–chalcone synthase markers

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2004
AbstractTouriga Nacional is the most popular Portuguese grapevine cultivar. After twenty years of clonal selection, highly recommended qualitative and productive clones have been identified. In the genus Vitis several molecular markers have been used to characterize genetic diversity at the DNA level, namely microsatellites, ISSR (inter simple sequence

Stilbene Compounds and Stilbene Synthase Expression during Ripening, Wilting, and UV Treatment in Grape cv. Corvina

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2001
The content of selected phenolic compounds including resveratrol (trans-3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene) and its cis-isomer and glucosides (piceides) were monitored in grape (Vitis vinifera L. cv. Corvina) berry skin during ripening in the vineyard and in response to the post-harvest drying process (wilting).

Piceid (Resveratrol Glucoside) Synthesis in Stilbene Synthase Transgenic Apple Fruit

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2006
A stilbene synthase gene along with the selectable marker gene bar for herbicide resistance was transferred via Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated transformation into apple (Malus domesticaBorkh.) cvs. 'Elstar' and 'Holsteiner Cox'. The stilbene synthase catalyzes the conversion of 1 molecule of p-coumaroyl-CoA and 3 molecules of malonyl-CoA into 3,4 ...

A comparison of stilbene and chalcone synthases including a new stilbene synthase gene from Vitis riparia cv. Gloire de Montpellier

Plant Science, 2000
A stilbene synthase gene was cloned from Vitis riparia cv. Gloire de Montpellier after PCR amplification with primers designed to include the start and stop codons of stilbene synthase genes of V. vinifera. The exon was very similar to that of other stilbene synthases, particularly those from V. vinifera (99% nucleotide identity).

CHARACTERIZATION AND CONTENT OF STILBENES AND OTHER POLYPHENOLS IN TOMATO PLANTS TRANSFORMED WITH THE STILBENE SYNTHASE GENE

Acta Horticulturae, 2008
There is a growing interest in producing food plants with increased amounts of antioxidants because of their potential health benefits. In particular polyphenolic secondary metabolites, such as flavonoids and stilbenes, have a great antioxidant activity, important both for plant physiology and human nutrition.

Expression of transgenic stilbene synthases in wheat causes the accumulation of unknown stilbene derivatives with antifungal activity

Journal of Plant Physiology, 2005
The expression of foreign phytoalexins in a new host is thought to increase fungal resistance, since host-specific pathogens have not experienced selection for detoxifying or metabolising the novel antifungal compounds. Two resveratrol synthase genes vst1 and vst2 from grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) and the pinosylvin synthase gene pss from pine (Pinus ...
