Metabolite concentrations and the expression profiles of the corresponding metabolic pathway genes in eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) fruits of contrasting colors.

Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) ranks fifth in importance among vegetable crops of the Solanaceae family, in part due to the high antioxidant properties and polyphenol content of the fruit. Along with the popular purple-fruited varieties of S.

Circadian Regulation of Expression of Carotenoid Metabolism Genes (PSY2, LCYE, CrtRB1, and NCED1) in Leaves of Tomato Solanum lycopersicum L.

The circadian dynamics of the expression of key genes of carotenoid metabolism (PSY2, LCYE, CrtRB1, and NCED1) in the photosynthetic tissue of tomato Solanum lycopersicum L. (cultivar Korneevsky) plants was characterized. An in silico analysis of the gene expression pattern was carried out and a high level of their transcripts was detected in the leaf tissue.

and Genes in Garlic ( L.): Genome-Wide Identification, Characterization, and Stress Response.

Dehydration-responsive element-binding (DREB) transcription factors (TFs) of the A1 and A2 subfamilies involved in plant stress responses have not yet been reported in species. In this study, we used bioinformatics and comparative transcriptomics to identify and characterize A1 and A2 genes redundant in garlic ( L.) and analyze their expression in cultivars differing in the sensitivity to cold and infection.

Genome-Wide Identification, Expression, and Response to Infection of the Gene Family in Garlic ( L.).

Proteins of the SWEET (Sugar Will Eventually be Exported Transporters) family play an important role in plant development, adaptation, and stress response by functioning as transmembrane uniporters of soluble sugars. However, the information on the SWEET family in the plants of the genus, which includes many crop species, is lacking. In this study, we performed a genome-wide analysis of garlic ( L.

Gene in Maize ( L.): Genome-Wide Identification, Characterization, Expression, and Stress Response.

Dehydration-responsive element-binding (DREB) transcription factors of the A2 subfamily play key roles in plant stress responses. In this study, we identified and characterized a new A2-type gene, , in the cv. B73 genome and compared its expression profile with those of the known A2-type maize genes .
