  1. 1. Knockout of transcription factor MYB28 by CRISPR/Cas9 for reducing glucosinolate content in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.)

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)

    Författare :Anusha Harshani Bogahawatta; [2023]
    Nyckelord :CRISPR Cas9; Glucosinolates; ; MYB28; protoplast; ; rapeseed; ; ribonucleoprotein; ; transcription factor;

    Sammanfattning : Rapeseed cake is a protein-rich by-product from the rapeseed oil extraction process. It contains high levels of glucosinolates (GSLs), which possess anti-nutritional functions after being hydrolyzed. Moreover, the hydrolyzed products of GSLs produce an extremely bitter taste.

  3. 2. Dissection of domain function for tandem AP2 plant transcription factors

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi; Lunds universitet/Beräkningskemi

    Författare :Harald Berg; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Transcription factors; plant oil biosynthesis; transient expression; Nicotiana benthamiana; domain swapping; Apetala 2; AP2; Wrinkled1; WRI1; Wrinkled4; WRI4; Baby Boom; BBM; Arabidopsis thaliana; applied biochemistry; tillämpad biokemi; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Oils are some of the most energy dense compounds produced in nature and play a vital role in society as a source of food, energy and as raw material in many chemical processes. Plant produced oils (triacylglycerols) are a key asset in the transition away from fossil oils. LÄS MER

  4. 3. The Arabidopsis – Plasmodiophora brassicae interaction : screening procedures and evaluation of mutant responses

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Department of Plant Biology (from 140101)

    Författare :Sytske Drost; [2015]
    Nyckelord :Arabidopsis; brassinosteroids; clubroot; Plasmodiophora brassicae;

    Sammanfattning : Clubroot, caused by the obligate biotrophic protist Plasmodiophora brassicae, is an important disease of Brassica oil and vegetable crops, and causes an estimated production loss of 10% worldwide. Infected root tissues develop swollen roots (clubroots) leading to wilting, stunting and premature ripening of the aboveground organs. LÄS MER

  5. 4. RNA-Seq: Yellow Nutsedge (Cyperus esculentus) transcriptome analysis of lipid-accumulating tubers from early to late developmental stages

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Författare :Axel Thieffry; [2014]
    Nyckelord :Cyperus esculentus; transcriptome; tubers; RNA-seq; bioinformatics;

    Sammanfattning : Thanks to high amounts of starch and oil amassed in the parenchyma of its tubers, yellow nutsedge (Cyperus esculentus) stands as a unique plant species with regards to nutrient biosynthesis and accumulation in underground organs. In the last decades, understanding of enzymatic processes in lipid, starch and sugar pathways underwent great improvements. LÄS MER
