Improving peppermint essential oil yield and composition by metabolic engineering.
Peppermint (Mentha × piperita L.) was transformed with various gene constructs to evaluate the utility of metabolic engineering for improving essential oil yield and composition. Oil yield increases were achieved by overexpressing genes involved in the supply of precursors through the 2C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) pathway. Two-gene combinations to enhance both oil yield and compositi...
متن کاملMetabolic engineering of essential oil yield and composition in mint by altering expression of deoxyxylulose phosphate reductoisomerase and menthofuran synthase.
Peppermint (Mentha x piperita L.) was independently transformed with a homologous sense version of the 1-deoxy-d-xylulose-5-phosphate reductoisomerase cDNA and with a homologous antisense version of the menthofuran synthase cDNA, both driven by the CaMV 35S promoter. Two groups of transgenic plants were regenerated in the reductoisomerase experiments, one of which remained normal in appearance ...
متن کاملGenetic engineering of essential oil production in mint.
New approaches directed to unraveling monoterpene metabolism and secretion and recent progress in transformation protocols have set the stage for the systematic genetic engineering of essential oil production. This article focuses on specific strategies to improve the quality and quantity of mint essential oils.
متن کاملEvaluation of Gene Expression Level of Limonene and Flavone Synthase and Essential Oil Composition under Different Water Conditions in Cumin
Cumin, Cuminum cyminum L., is the king of spices with a plethora of natural compounds with pharmacological features. Drought stress is a well-known factor that influences the production of some metabolites. We studied the impact of drought stress on gene expression and metabolite content in flower and leaf tissue organs of two ecotypes, Taybad and Ardakan populations. Plants were imposed into t...
متن کاملMetabolic engineering of cottonseed oil biosynthesis pathway via RNA interference
Cottonseed oil is recognized as an important oil in food industry for its unique characters: low flavor reversion and the high level of antioxidants (VitaminE) as well as unsaturated fatty acid. However, the cottonseed oil content of cultivated cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is only around 20%. In this study, we modified the accumulation of oils by the down-regulation of phosphoenolpyruvate carbox...
