Plant growth is usually constrained by the availability of nutrients, water, or temperature,
rather than photosynthetic carbon (C) fixation. Under these conditions leaf growth is …

Propolis is a complex phytocompound made from resinous and balsamic material harvested
by bees from flowers, branches, pollen, and tree exudates. Humans have used propolis …

Volatiles mediate the interaction of plants with pollinators, herbivores and their natural
enemies, other plants and micro‐organisms. With increasing knowledge about these …

Chloranthales remain the last major mesangiosperm lineage without a nuclear genome
assembly. We therefore assemble a high-quality chromosome-level genome of Chloranthus …

All plants synthesize a diverse array of terpenoid metabolites. Some are common to all, but
many are synthesized only in specific taxa and presumably evolved as adaptations to …

Temperature, water, solar radiation, and atmospheric CO 2 concentration are the main
abiotic factors that are changing in the course of global warming. These abiotic factors …

As sessile organisms, plants are unable to avoid being subjected to environmental stresses
that negatively affect their growth and productivity. Instead, they utilize various mechanisms …

The term metabolome was coined in 1998, by analogy to genome, transcriptome and
proteome. The first research papers using the terms metabolomics, metabonomics …

Analysis of the updated reference tomato genome found 34 full‐length TPS genes and 18
TPS pseudogenes. Biochemical analysis has now identified the catalytic activities of all …
