The complete chloroplast genome of (Cichorioideae), a traditional Chinese medicinal plant.

, Diels 1921 is a traditional Chinese medicinal plant of Cichorioideae, which contains many chemicals, such as friedelin, -sitosterol, stigmasterol, chlorogenic acid, and flavonoids, and so on, which has the characteristics of high medicinal value and small side effect. was used as folk medicines for anti-bacterial, and anti-oxidation, which also had a potential curative effect in preventing cardiovascular disease and anti-tumor. Illumina paired-end reads data were used to assemble the complete chloroplast (cp) genome.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence and phylogenetic position of (L.) Kuntze (Apiaceae).

(L.) Kuntze is a traditional Chinese medicinal plant for treating diuresis, abdominal pain and eczema. In this study, its complete chloroplast genome was assembled from the whole genome Illumina sequencing data.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of (Hochst.) Steane & Mabb., a traditional medicinal plant.

(Hochst.) Steane & Mabb. is a plant species used in traditional medicine for the management of diabetes in the lower eastern part of Kenya (Kitui, Machakos and Makueni Counties, Kenya) that is mainly inhabited by the Kamba community.

Comparative proteomic analysis of latex from Euphorbia kansui laticifers at different development stages with and without UV-B treatment via iTRAQ-coupled two-dimensional liquid chromatography-MS/MS.

Euphorbia kansui Liou, an endemic species in China, is well-known in traditional Chinese medicine. All parts of E. kansui contain white latex, which is the protoplasm constituent of specialised cells known as laticifers.

iTRAQ-Based Proteomics Analysis of Autophagy-Mediated Responses against MeJA in Laticifers of Euphorbia kansui L.

Autophagy is a well-defined catabolic mechanism whereby cytoplasmic materials are engulfed into a structure termed the autophagosome. Methyl jasmonate (MeJA), a plant hormone, mediates diverse developmental process and defense responses which induce a variety of metabolites. In plants, little is known about autophagy-mediated responses against MeJA.

MicroRNAome Profile of in Response to Methyl Jasmonate.

miRNAs play vital regulatory roles in different plant developmental stages and in plant response to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, information is limited on the miRNA regulatory mechanism to methyl jasmonate (MeJA). In this study, we used the microRNAome profile to illustrate the relevant regulatory mechanisms of in response to methyl jasmonate (MeJA) through Illumina RNA-Seq.

Lysosome and proteasome pathways are distributed in laticifers of Euphorbia helioscopia L.

At present, the lysosome pathway (LP) and proteasome pathway (PP) are known as major clearance systems in eukaryotic cells. The laticifer, a secretory tissue, degrades some cytoplasm during development. In this study, we investigated the distribution of LP and PP in non-articulated laticifers of Euphorbia helioscopia L.

Detection of autophagy processes during the development of nonarticulated laticifers in Euphorbia kansui Liou.

Autophagy is involved in cytoplasmic degradation through directly engulfing cytosol and organelles by autophagosomes and then fusing with lysosome-like vesicles during the development of nonarticulated laticifers in Euphorbia kansui Liou. Autophagy has been reported to play an important role in a wide range of eukaryotic organisms during responses to various abiotic and biotic stresses. However, until recently, the functions of autophagy in normal plant differentiation and development were still in their infancy.
