Proteome profiling of flax (Linum usitatissimum) seed: characterization of functional metabolic pathways operating during seed development.
Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) seeds are an important source of food and feed due to the presence of various health promoting compounds, making it a nutritionally and economically important plant. An in-depth analysis of the proteome of developing flax seed is expected to provide significant information with respect to the regulation and accumulation of such storage compounds. Therefore, a prote...
متن کاملBiotechnology of Flax (Linum usitatissimum)
Biotechnology can offer useful tools to complement conventional breeding programs. The techniques of in vitro selection, that exploit phenomenon, called somaclonal variation, by screening cell cultures for resistance to herbicides, different types of stress or diseases, already helped to obtain tolerant lines of flax (Linum usitatissimum), which were used in further commercial breeding programs...
متن کاملEnvironmental effects on linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) yield and growth of flax at different stand densities
The effect of environmental factors and stand density on linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) yield was investigated by examining yield components and development rates from 4 years of field experiments carried out at Viterbo, Central Italy, in which different seed rates were tested. Spring sowings were carried out using the linseed cultivar ‘Mikael’. Growth analysis using the functional approach a...
متن کاملPhylogenetic pinpointing of a paleopolyploidy event within the flax genus (Linum) using transcriptomics.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Cultivated flax (Linum usitatissimum) is known to have undergone a whole-genome duplication around 5-9 million years ago. The aim of this study was to investigate whether other whole-genome duplication events have occurred in the evolutionary history of cultivated flax. Knowledge of such whole-genome duplications will be important in understanding the biology and genomics of...
متن کاملRNA-seq Transcriptome Response of Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) to the Pathogenic Fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini
Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini is a hemibiotrophic fungus that causes wilt in flax. Along with rust, fusarium wilt has become an important factor in flax production worldwide. Resistant flax cultivars have been used to manage the disease, but the resistance varies, depending on the interactions between specific cultivars and isolates of the pathogen. This interaction has a strong molecular basi...
