Adventitious root (AR) culture of Atractylodes chinensis is an efficient platform for sustainable production of its sesquiterpenoid compounds (atractylon and β-eudesmol). However, their limited accumulation levels need an effective elicitation approach, and the present study solved this problem using methyl jasmonate (MeJA) as an elicitor. The effects of its treatment concentration and duration on metabolite production were investigated.

- The study investigates how trehalose metabolism affects the cold acclimatization in kiwiberry, focusing on a specific gene (TPP) that helps plants survive low temperatures.
- Transcriptome analysis revealed that this gene is more active in lateral buds, roots, and stem cambia during autumn when temperatures drop.
- Overexpressing the TPP gene in kiwiberry led to significant increases in trehalose levels and enhanced freezing tolerance, along with improved ability to manage stress factors like reactive oxygen species.
Unlike modern tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) cultivars, cv. LA1996 harbors the dominant Aft allele, which is associated with anthocyanin synthesis in tomato fruit peel. However, the control of Aft anthocyanin biosynthesis remains unclear.
