Nicotiana benthamiana is the most widely used experimental host in plant virology, due
mainly to the large number of diverse plant viruses that can successfully infect it …

Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) is a widely cultivated crop of the genus Nicotiana. Due to
the highly addictive nature of tobacco products, tobacco smoking remains the leading cause …

The allotetraploid plant Nicotiana tabacum (common tobacco) is a major crop species and a
model organism, for which only very fragmented genomic sequences are currently available …

A phylogeny of Solanaceae is presented based on the chloroplast DNA regions ndhF and
trnLF. With 89 genera and 190 species included, this represents a nearly comprehensive …

Specialized metabolite (SM) diversification is a core process to plants' adaptation to diverse
ecological niches. Here, we implemented a computational mass spectrometry–based …

Background In studies looking at individual polyploid species, the most common patterns of
genomic change are that either genome size in the polyploid is additive (ie the sum of …

Abstract Background Nicotiana sylvestris and Nicotiana tomentosiformis are members of the
Solanaceae family that includes tomato, potato, eggplant and pepper. These two Nicotiana …

Nicotiana benthamiana is widely used as a model plant for dicotyledonous angiosperms. In
fact, the strains used in research are highly susceptible to a wide range of viruses …

Nicotine, the primary psychoactive agent in tobacco leaves, has led to the widespread use of
tobacco, with over one billion smokers globally. This article provides a historical overview of …

For Nicotiana, with 75 naturally occurring species (40 diploids and 35 allopolyploids), we
produced 4656bp of plastid DNA sequence for 87 accessions and various outgroups. The …
