CaMYB80 enhances the cold tolerance of pepper by directly targeting .

Cold temperatures negatively impact crop yield and quality, posing significant limitations to the advancement of the vegetable industry. MYB transcription factors are pivotal in enhancing plant resilience against various abiotic stresses, including low-temperature stress. Pepper ( L.

Molecular regulation by HS of antioxidant and glucose metabolism in cold-sensitive Capsicum.

Background: Cold is an important environmental limiting factor affecting plant yield and quality. Capsicum (chili pepper), a tropical and subtropical vegetable crop, is extremely sensitive to cold. Although HS is an important signaling regulator in the responses of plant growth and development to abiotic stress, few studies have examined its effects on cold-sensitive capsicum varieties.

The Development and Application of Vegetable Genomics Increase the Efficiency of Exploring New Gene Resources for Vegetables.

Vegetables, as indispensable non-staple foods in people's daily diet, provide a variety of essential vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients, as well as special phytochemicals, which are recognized as functional components for human nutritional balance or medicinal purposes [...

Lipid-Related Domestication Accounts for the Extreme Cold Sensitivity of Semiwild and Tropic Xishuangbanna Cucumber ( L. var. ).

Xishuangbanna (XIS) cucumber ( L. var. ) is a semiwild variety originating from low latitude tropic areas, and therefore shows extreme cold sensitivity and heat tolerance.

Absorption, translocation, and accumulation of the fungicide triadimefon in Pak choi (Brassica rapa var chinensis), pepper (Capsicum annuum), and cucumber (Cucumis sativus).

Triadimefon is a typical systemic fungicide that is widely used in the management of powdery mildew, rust disease, and southern blight. In this study, we measured fungicide residue to profile its absorption, translocation, and accumulation in three representative vegetable crops (Pak choi, cucumber, and pepper) after over-application. The fungicides were applied through entire-plant spraying (EPS), root-irrigation (RI), and middle-leaf-daubing (MLD).

Biosynthesis and Metabolism of Garlic Odor Compounds in Cultivated Chinese Chives () and Wild Chinese Chives ().

Chinese chives is a popular herb vegetable and medicine in Asian countries. Southwest China is one of the centers of origin, and the mountainous areas in this region are rich in wild germplasm. In this study, we collected four samples of germplasm from different altitudes: a land race of cultivated Chinese chives (), wide-leaf chives and extra-wide-leaf chives (), and ovoid-leaf chives ().

Higher Phytohormone Contents and Weaker Phytohormone Signal Transduction Were Observed in Cold-Tolerant Cucumber.

Cucumbers (Cucumis sativus L.) originated from the South Asian subcontinent, and most of them are fragile to cold stress. In this study, we evaluated the cold tolerance of 115 cucumber accessions and screened out 10 accessions showing high resistance to cold stress.

The dissection of R genes and locus Pc5.1 in Phytophthora capsici infection provides a novel view of disease resistance in peppers.

Background: Phytophthora capsici root rot (PRR) is a disastrous disease in peppers (Capsicum spp.) caused by soilborne oomycete with typical symptoms of necrosis and constriction at the basal stem and consequent plant wilting. Most studies on the QTL mapping of P.

Temperature and photoperiod changes affect cucumber sex expression by different epigenetic regulations.

Background: Cucumbers (Cucumis sativus) are known for their plasticity in sex expression. DNA methylation status determines gene activity but is susceptible to environmental condition changes. Thus, DNA methylation-based epigenetic regulation may at least partially account for the instability of cucumber sex expression.

Integrative Analysis of Transcriptomic and Methylomic Data in Photoperiod-Dependent Regulation of Cucumber Sex Expression.

The cucumber () is characterized by its diversity and seasonal plasticity in sexual type. A long day length condition significantly decreased the cucumber female flower ratio by 17.7-52.

The association of changes in DNA methylation with temperature-dependent sex determination in cucumber.

Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) is characterized by its diverse and flexible sexual types. Here, we evaluated the effect of low temperature (LT) exposure on cucumber femaleness under short-day conditions.

The Dark-Purple Tea Cultivar 'Ziyan' Accumulates a Large Amount of Delphinidin-Related Anthocyanins.

Recently, we developed a novel tea cultivar 'Ziyan' with distinct purple leaves. There was a significant correlation between leaf color and anthocyanin pigment content in the leaves. A distinct allocation of metabolic flow for B-ring trihydroxylated anthocyanins and catechins in 'Ziyan' was observed.

Pigment accumulation and transcription of LhMYB12 and anthocyanin biosynthesis genes during flower development in the Asiatic hybrid lily (Lilium spp.).

Anthocyanin biosynthesis is often regulated by MYB transcription factors that are classified into AN2 and C1 subgroups. The AN2 subgroup regulates the late genes in the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway of eudicots, whereas the C1 subgroup controls both early and late genes in monocots. Anthocyanin is a major pigment in Asiatic hybrid lilies (Lilium spp.
