The chloroplast can act as an environmental sensor, communicating with the cell during
biogenesis and operation to change the expression of thousands of proteins. This process …

This paper compares three possible strategies for enhanced lipid overproduction in
microalgae: the biochemical engineering (BE) approaches, the genetic engineering (GE) …

Algae are a diverse, polyphyletic group of photosynthetic eukaryotes spanning nearly all
eukaryotic lineages of life and collectively responsible for∼ 50% of photosynthesis on Earth …

ABSTRACT The Plant Transcription Factor Database (PlnTFDB; http://plntfdb. bio. uni-

Unicellular marine algae have promise for providing sustainable and scalable biofuel
feedstocks, although no single species has emerged as a preferred organism. Moreover …

Microalgae constitute a diverse group of eukaryotic unicellular organisms that are of interest
for pure and applied research. Owing to their natural synthesis of value‐added natural …

Background Hevea brasiliensis, a member of the Euphorbiaceae family, is the major
commercial source of natural rubber (NR). NR is a latex polymer with high elasticity …

Background Transcription factors of the basic leucine zipper (bZIP) family control important
processes in all eukaryotes. In plants, bZIPs are regulators of many central developmental …

GT factors are the founding members of the trihelix transcription factor family. They bind GT
elements in light regulated genes, and their nature was uncovered in a burst of activity in the …

The colonization and radiation of multicellular plants on land that started over 470 Ma was
one of the defining events in the history of this planet. For the first time, large amounts of …
