A knowledgebase of stress reponsive gene regulatory elements in arabidopsis Thaliana
(University of the Western Cape, 2011)Stress responsive genes play a key role in shaping the manner in which plants process and respond to environmental stress. Their gene products are linked to DNA transcription and its consequent translation into a response ... -
Regulatory attributes of the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway in Arabidopsis Thaliana under abiotic stress
(University of the Western Cape, 2012)Carotenoids are tetraprenoid (C40) molecules synthesized in plants, fungi, bacteria and algae, via the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway (CBP). Some carotenoids are readily converted to vitamin A (VA) in humans, e.g. ...
