      Coluccio Leskow, Carla; Conte, Mariana; del Pozo, Talía; Bermudez Salazar, Luisa; Lira, Bruno Silvestre; Gramegna, Giovanna; Baroli, Irene; Burgos, Estanislao; Zavallo, Diego; Kamenetzky, Laura; Asis, Ramón; Gonzalez, Maurıcio; Fernie, Alisdair R.; Rossi, Magdalena; Osorio, Sonia; Carrari, Fernando (Oxford University Press, 2021-03)
      Sucrose metabolism is important for most plants, both as the main source of carbon and via signaling mechanisms that have been proposed for this molecule. A cleaving enzyme, invertase (INV) channels sucrose into sink ...
    • The genetic architecture of photosynthesis and plant growthrelated traits in tomato 

      Oliveira Silva, Franklin Magnum de; Lichtenstein, Gabriel; Alseekh, Saleh; Rosado‐Souza, Laise; Conte, Mariana; Fuentes Suguiyama, Vanessa; Lira, Bruno Silvestre; Fanourakis, Dimitrios; Usadel, Björn; Lopes Bhering, Leonardo; DaMatta, Fábio M.; Sulpice, Ronan; Araújo, Wagner L.; Rossi, Magdalena; de Setta, Nathalia; Fernie, Alisdair R.; Carrari, Fernando; Nunes Nesi, Adriano (Wiley, 2018-02)
      To identify genomic regions involved in the regulation of fundamental physiological processes such as photosynthesis and respiration, a population of Solanum pennellii introgression lines was analyzed. We determined ...

C.; Zamir, Dani; Carrari, Fernando; Giovannoni, James J.; Weigel, Detlef; Usadel, Björn; Fernie, Alisdair R. (Nature Publishing Group, 2014-09)
      Solanum pennellii is a wild tomato species endemic to Andean regions in South America, where it has evolved to thrive in arid habitats. Because of its extreme stress tolerance and unusual morphology, it is an important ...
    • Tomato Abscisic Acid Stress ripening (ASR) gene family revisited 

      Golan, Ido; Dominguez, Pia Guadalupe; Konrad, Zvia; Shkolnik Inbar, Doron; Carrari, Fernando; Bar Zvi, Dudy (PLOS, 2014-10-13)
      Tomato ABSCISIC ACID RIPENING 1 (ASR1) was the first cloned plant ASR gene. ASR orthologs were then cloned from a large number of monocot, dicot and gymnosperm plants, where they are mostly involved in response to abiotic ...
    • Transcriptional regulation of tocopherol biosynthesis in tomato 

      Quadrana, Leandro Daniel; Almeida de Souza, Juliana Beatriz; Otaiza, Santiago N.; Duffy, Tomas; Silva, Junia V. Corrêa da; Godoy, Fabiana de; Asís, Ramón; Bermúdez, Luisa; Fernie, Alisdair R.; Carrari, Fernando; Rossi, Magdalena (Springer, 2013-02)
      Tocopherols, compounds with vitamin E (VTE) activity, are potent lipid-soluble antioxidants synthesized only by photosynthetic organisms. Their biosynthesis requires the condensation of phytyl-diphosphate and homogentisate, ...
