• A tomato tocopherol-binding protein sheds light on intracellular a-tocopherol metabolism in plants 

      Bermudez Salazar, Luisa; del Pozo, Talía; Lira, Bruno Silvestre; Godoy, Fabiana de; Boos, Irene; Romano, Cecilia; Previtali, Viola; Almeida, Juliana; Brehelin, Claire; Asis, Ramón; Quadrana, Leandro Daniel; Demarco, Diego; Alseekh, Saleh; Salinas Gamboa, Rigel; Perez-Flores, Laura; Dominguez, Pia Guadalupe; Rothan, Christophe; Fernie, Alisdair R.; Gonzalez, Maurıcio; Stocker, Achim; Hemmerle, Andreas; Clausen, Mads Hartving; Carrari, Fernando; Rossi, Magdalena (Oxford University Press, 2018-11)
      Tocopherols are non-polar compounds synthesized in the plastids, which function as major antioxidants of the plant cells and are essential in the human diet. Both the intermediates and final products of the tocopherol ...
    • Galacturonosyltransferase 4 silencing alters pectin composition and carbon partitioning in tomato 

      Godoy, Fabiana de; Bermúdez, Luisa; Lira, Bruno Silvestre; Souza, Amanda Pereira de; Elbl, Paula; Demarco, Diego; Alseekh, Saleh; Insani, Ester Marina; Buckeridge, Marcos; Almeida, Juliana; Grigioni, Gabriela Maria; Fernie, Alisdair R.; Carrari, Fernando; Rossi, Magdalena (2013-04)
      Pectin is a main component of the plant cell wall and is the most complex family of polysaccharides in nature. Its composition is essential for the normal growth and morphology pattern, as demonstrated by pectin-defective ...
    • Regulatory mechanisms behind the phenotypic plasticity associated with Setaria italica water deficit tolerance 

      Suguiyama, Vanessa Fuentes; Rodriguez, Jae Diana Paredes; Santos, Tatiane Cristina Nicomedio dos; Lira, Bruno Silvestre; de Haro, Luis Alejandro; Silva, João Paulo Naldi; Borba, Eduardo Leite; Purgatto, Eduardo; Silva, Emerson Alves da; Bellora Pereyra, Nicolás; Carrari, Fernando; Centeno, Danilo da Cruz; Bermudez Salazar, Luisa; Rossi, Magdalena; de Setta, Nathalia (Springer, 2022-05)
      Drought is one of the main environmental stresses that negatively impacts vegetative and reproductive yield. Water deficit responses are determined by the duration and intensity of the stress, which, together with plant ...
    • The cytosolic invertase NI6 affects vegetative growth, flowering, fruit set, and yield in tomato 

      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 ...
