This review focuses on the intricate relationship between plant polyamines and the genetic
circuits and signaling pathways that regulate various developmental programs and the …

Highlights•To date, metabolites from more than 10 different metabolic classes have been
identified as lignin building blocks, totaling 35 monomers.•Despite this flexibility, limitations …

Although much is known about plant traits that function in nonhost resistance against
pathogens, little is known about nonhost resistance against herbivores, despite its …

Plants produce a variety of metabolites that have a critical role in growth and development.
Here we present a comprehensive study of maize metabolism, combining genetic …

Jasmonates (JAs) act as conserved elicitors of plant secondary metabolism. JA perception
triggers extensive transcriptional reprogramming leading to the concerted activation of entire …

At a time when environmental considerations are increasingly pushing for the application of
circular economy concepts in materials science, lignin stands out as an under-used but …

Polyamines play a fundamental role in the functioning of all cells. Their regulatory role in
plant development, their function under stress conditions, and their metabolism have been …

Specialized metabolite (SM) diversification is a core process to plants' adaptation to diverse
ecological niches. Here, we implemented a computational mass spectrometry–based …

As the main fungal etiologic agent of apple (Malus domestica) replant disease (ARD),
Fusarium solani seriously damages apple roots. Ethylene response factors (ERFs) play an …

Polyamines (PAs) are ubiquitous amine molecules found in all living organisms. In plants,
beside their role in signaling and protection against abiotic stresses, there is increasing …
