Linoleic acid metabolites, (-)-methyl jasmonate and (+)-12-oxophytodienoic acid ((+)-12-oxo-PDA), were prepared from the same precursor (1,2-trans, 1,3-cis, 2'Z)-2-(pent-2'-enyl)-cyclopent-4-en-1,3-diol, which was obtained by regioselective pent-2-enylation of cyclopentadiene and following photooxidation to cis-1,3-diol. A methoxycarbonylmethyl substituent was introduced to the cyclopentane ring via alkylation of the pi-allyl palladium intermediate derived from (1R,2S,3S,2'Z)-3-acetoxy-2-(pent-2'-enyl)cyclopent-4-ene-1-ol with dimethyl malonate for (-)-methyl jasmonate. The alpha-chain was introduced to the cyclopentane ring via the S(N)2 type nucleophilic substitution of (1S,2R,3R,2'Z)-3-acetoxy-2-(pent-2'-enyl)cyclopent-4-ene-1-ol with a dialkylcuprate for (+)-12-oxo-PDA.

Plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIPs), one sub-family of aquaporins (AQPs), are responsible for plant abiotic stress responses. However, little information is currently available about the stress responsiveness of the promoter in vegetable pea. In the present study, one novel promoter of which shared high similarity to the -type from other plants, was isolated.

Polylactic acid (PLA) microplastics (MPs) and lead (Pb) co-contamination, an emerging co-contamination, may profoundly impact plant growth. We aimed to evaluate the effects of PLA-MPs and Pb on buckwheat growth and physiology and to elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms through an integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic approach. PLA-MPs alone reduced buckwheat biomass by 26.

The application of plant growth regulators is an effective method to enhance flavonoid content in certain fruits; however, there is limited research comparing the effects of different plant growth regulators. This study evaluated the impact of pre-harvest application with melatonin, 24-epibrassinolide, and methyl jasmonate on flavonoid content in blueberry fruit. All three plant growth regulators increased the total polyphenol content, total flavonoid content, antioxidant capacities, and the activities of key enzymes involved in flavonoid biosynthesis, including flavone synthase, flavanone 3-hydroxylase, flavonol synthase, anthocyanidin synthase, and leucoanthocyanidin reductase.
