Over 8000 different flavonoids have been described and a considerable number of new flavonoid structures are being elucidated every year. The advent metabolomics alongside the development phytochemical genetics – wherein genetic basis underlying regulation levels plant metabolites is determined has provided massive boost to such efforts. That said our understanding individual function(s) vast majority that constitute this important class phytochemicals remains unknown. Here we review what known concerning major decorative modifications in plants, namely hydroxylation, glycosylation, methylation acylation. Our focus with regard planta function these modified compounds, however, also highlight demonstrated bioactive roles which they possess. We additionally performed comprehensive survey listed KNApSAcK database order assess frequency occurrence each type modification. conclude whilst research carried out regarding biological most studies date merely information on compound or sub-classes thereof as whole too little currently specific role metabolites. We, therefore, finally suggest framework based available tools by relative importance compounds can be assessed under various conditions fill knowledge-gap.

Current achievements and future prospects in the genetic breeding of chrysanthemum: a review

Horticulture Research, Год журнала: 2019, Номер 6(1)

Опубликована: Окт. 1, 2019

Abstract Chrysanthemum ( morifolium Ramat.) is a leading flower with applied value worldwide. Developing new chrysanthemum cultivars novel characteristics such as colors and shapes, plant architectures, flowering times, postharvest quality, biotic abiotic stress tolerance in time- cost-efficient manner the ultimate goal for breeders. Various breeding strategies have been employed to improve aforementioned traits, ranging from conventional techniques, including crossbreeding mutation breeding, series of molecular methods, transgenic technology, genome editing, marker-assisted selection (MAS). In addition, recent extensive advances high-throughput technologies, especially genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, microbiomics, which are collectively referred omics platforms, led collection substantial amounts data. Integration these data phenotypic information will enable identification genes/pathways responsible important traits. Several attempts made use emerging methods aim accelerating chrysanthemum. However, applying findings studies practical remains considerable challenge, primarily due high heterozygosity polyploidy species. This review summarizes achievements modern technologies discusses their future applications improving agronomic horticultural

Exploring and exploiting genetics and genomics for sweetpotato improvement: Status and perspectives

Plant Communications, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 3(5), С. 100332 - 100332

Опубликована: Май 5, 2022

Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) is one of the most important root crops cultivated worldwide. Because its adaptability, high yield potential, and nutritional value, sweetpotato has become an food crop, particularly in developing countries. To ensure adequate crop yields to meet increasing demand, it essential enhance tolerance environmental stresses other yield-limiting factors. The highly heterozygous hexaploid genome I. complicates genetic studies limits improvement through traditional breeding. However, application next-generation sequencing high-throughput genotyping phenotyping technologies genetics genomics research provided new tools resources for improvement. In this review, we discuss that are available sweetpotato, including current reference genome, databases, bioinformatics tools. We systematically review state knowledge on polyploid origin germplasm diversity associated mapping agricultural traits. then outline conventional molecular breeding approaches have been applied sweetpotato. Finally, future goals via combination with state-of-the-art multi-omics such as genomic selection gene editing. These will advance accelerate facilitate sustainable global production.

Metabolite‐based genome‐wide association study enables dissection of the flavonoid decoration pathway of wheat kernels

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Год журнала: 2020, Номер 18(8), С. 1722 - 1735

Опубликована: Янв. 13, 2020

Summary The marriage of metabolomic approaches with genetic design has proven a powerful tool in dissecting diversity the metabolome and additionally enhanced our understanding complex traits. That said, such studies have rarely been carried out wheat. In this study, we detected 805 metabolites from wheat kernels profiled their relative contents among 182 accessions, conducting metabolite‐based genome‐wide association study (mGWAS) utilizing 14 646 previously described polymorphic SNP markers. A total 1098 mGWAS associations were large effects, within which 26 candidate genes tentatively designated for 42 loci. Enzymatic assay two candidates indicated they could catalyse glucosylation subsequent malonylation various flavonoids thereby major flavonoid decoration pathway kernel was dissected. Moreover, numerous high‐confidence associated metabolite provided, as well more subdivided networks are yet to be explored data. These combined efforts presented first step towards realizing metabolomics‐associated breeding
