Cysteine and Methionine Biosynthetic Enzymes Have Distinct Effects on Seed Nutritional Quality and on Molecular Phenotypes Associated With Accumulation of a Methionine-Rich Seed Storage Protein in Rice

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Staple crops in human and livestock diets suffer from deficiencies in certain “essential” amino acids including methionine. With the goal of increasing methionine in rice seed, we generated a pair of “Push × Pull” double transgenic lines, each containing

Tris(methylthio)methane produced by Mortierella hyalina affects sulfur homeostasis in Arabidopsis

Scientific Reports, 2022
Microbial volatiles are important factors in symbiotic interactions with plants. Mortierella hyalina is a beneficial root-colonizing fungus with a garlic-like smell, and promotes growth of Arabidopsis seedlings. GC–MS analysis of the M. hyalina headspace
