Untargeted Metabolomics of Rind Essential Oils Allowed to Differentiate Two Closely Related Clementine Varieties
(MDPI, 2021)
Chemical characterization of clementine varieties (Citrus clementina Hort. ex Tan.) essential
oils (EO) can lead to variety identification and valorization of their potential use in food and aroma
industries. The goal ...
Metabolic and Regulatory Responses in Citrus rootstock in Response to Adverse Environmental Conditions
(Springer Verlag, 2014-06)
In response to adverse environmental conditions, plants modify their metabolism to adapt to the new conditions. To differentiate common responses to abiotic stress from specific adaptation to a certain stress condition, ...
Tolerance of citrus plants to the combination of high temperatures and drought is associated to the increase in transpiration modulated by a reduction in abscisic acid levels
(BioMed Central, 2016)
Background
In natural environments, several adverse environmental conditions occur simultaneously constituting a unique stress factor. In this work, physiological parameters and the hormonal regulation of Carrizo citrange ...
Loss-of-function of NITROGEN LIMITATION ADAPTATION confers disease resistance in Arabidopsis by modulating hormone signaling and camalexin content
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2022-07-15)
Phosphorus is an important macronutrient required for plant growth and development. It is absorbed by the roots in the form of inorganic phosphate (Pi). Under Pi limiting conditions, plants activate the Phosphate Starvation ...
Phosphite shifts physiological and hormonal profile of Monterey pine and delays Fusarium circinatum progression
(Elsevier, 2017)
Fusarium circinatum is the causal agent of pitch canker disease affecting Pinus spp. and Pseudotsuga
menziesii worldwide. Under strict quarantine measures, alternative approaches for disease control are
necessary. Phosphite ...
Polyamine oxidase 5 loss-of-function mutations in Arabidopsisthaliana trigger metabolic and transcriptional reprogrammingand promote salt stress tolerance
(Wiley, 2017)
The family of polyamine oxidases (PAO) in Arabidopsis(AtPAO1–5) mediates polyamine (PA) back-conversion,which reverses the PA biosynthetic pathway from spermineand its structural isomer thermospermine (tSpm) intospermidine ...
High temperatures modify plant responses to abiotic stress conditions
(Wiley, 2020)
Climate change is altering environments in which plants and different crops grow and survive. We already experienced an increase in worldwide average earth surface temperatures, as well as frequency and extent of damaging ...
Apical dominance in saffron and the involvement of the branching enzymes CCD7 and CCD8 in the control of bud sprouting
(BioMed Central, 2014)
Background:
In saffron (Crocus sativus), new corms develop at the base of every shoot developed from the maternal corm, a globular underground storage stem. Since the degree of bud sprouts influences the number and size ...
Effect of cadmium and calcium treatments on phytochelatin and glutathione levels in citrus plants
(Wiley, 2014)
Industry residues, phosphate fertilisers and wastewater as a source of irrigation have considerably increased levels of heavy metals in the soil, mainly cadmium (Cd2+). To test the effects of a calcium (Ca2+) treatment on ...
Root exudates: from plant to rhizosphere and beyond
(Springer, 2020)
Key message This article describes the composition of root exudates, how these metabolites are released to the rhizosphere and their importance in the recruitment of benefcial microbiota that alleviate plant stress.
