Insights into the Stearoyl-Acyl Carrier Protein Desaturase (SAD) Family in Tigernut (Cyperus esculentus L.), an Oil-Bearing Tuber Plant

Plants
Plant oils rich in oleic acid (OA) are attracting considerable attention for their high nutritional value and significant industrial potential. Stearoyl-acyl carrier protein desaturases (SADs) are a class of soluble desaturases that play a key role in OA

The tissue structure of the vegetative organs of strawberry (Fragaria moschata Duch®)

International Journal of Horticultural Science, 2000
The tissue structure of the vegetative organs of strawberry (root, rhizome, stolon, leaf) is discussed in this paper. The authors stated that the root structure described by Muromcev (1969) and Naumann-Seip (1989) develops further from the primary ...

Structural and parametric aspects of plant barriers as a passive method for improving urban air quality

City and Environment Interactions, 2020
Vegetative barriers, arranged as isolating and filtering structures, are introduced into the urban tissue to improve the quality of urban air. As passive methods of space organisation, they are tools for mitigating, alleviating the effects of pollution ...

Comparing four heat-inducible promoters in stably transformed sugarcane regarding spatial and temporal control of transgene expression reveals candidates to drive stem-preferred transgene expression

Frontiers in Plant Science
Small heat shock protein (sHSP) promoters contain cis-regulatory elements that facilitate transcription in response to heat stress, making them valuable tools for functional studies through controlled gene expression and the precise regulation of gene ...

Advances in passion fruit (Passiflora spp.) propagation

Revista Brasileira de Fruticultura, 2019
The propagation of many passion fruit species (Passiflora spp.) is done by seeds or sexual method, although asexual propagation, such stem cuttings, grafting or tissue culture is also possible and very useful in many cases. In this work, it was presented

Tissue-specific transposon-associated small RNAs in the gymnosperm tree, Norway spruce

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background Small RNAs (sRNAs) are regulatory molecules impacting on gene expression and transposon activity. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are responsible for tissue-specific and environmentally-induced gene repression.
