Journal ArticleDOI
RNAi-Mediated Downregulation of Inositol Pentakisphosphate Kinase ( IPK1) in Wheat Grains Decreases Phytic Acid Levels and Increases Fe and Zn Accumulation
Sipla Aggarwal,Sipla Aggarwal,Anil Kumar,Kaushal Kumar Bhati,Kaushal Kumar Bhati,Gazaldeep Kaur,Vishnu Shukla,Siddharth Tiwari,Ajay Kumar Pandey +8 more
TL;DR: Overall, this work suggests that IPK1 is a promising candidate for employing genome editing tools to address the mineral accumulation in wheat grains.
Journal ArticleDOI
CRISPR/Cas9 directed editing of lycopene epsilon-cyclase modulates metabolic flux for β-carotene biosynthesis in banana fruit.
Navneet Kaur,Anshu Alok,Shivani,Pankaj Kumar,Navjot Kaur,Praveen Awasthi,Siddhant Chaturvedi,Pankaj Pandey,Ashutosh Pandey,Ajay Kumar Pandey,Siddharth Tiwari +10 more
TL;DR: This is the first report in banana to improve nutritional trait by using a precise genome editing approach using the CRISPR/Cas9 approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Silencing of ABCC13 transporter in wheat reveals its involvement in grain development, phytic acid accumulation and lateral root formation
TL;DR: This study demonstrates the importance of the wheat ABCC transporter (TaABCC13) for achieving low phytic acid in grains, and substantiates its previously speculated role during heavy metal detoxification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional analysis of the Asian soybean rust resistance pathway mediated by Rpp2.
Ajay Kumar Pandey,Chunling Yang,Chunquan Zhang,Michelle A. Graham,Heidi D. Horstman,Yeunsook Lee,Olga A. Zabotina,John H. Hill,Kerry F. Pedley,Steven A. Whitham +9 more
TL;DR: The results provide new insight into the signaling and biochemical pathways required for resistance against P. pachyrhizi and identify 11 genes that compromised Rpp2-mediated resistance when silenced.
Journal ArticleDOI
ITS-RFLP and ITS sequence analysis of a foliar endophytic Phyllosticta from different tropical trees
TL;DR: Sequence data of the ITS region of ribosomal DNA supported the identity of the present fungal isolates as P. capitalensis, an ubiquitous foliar endophyte that can infect tree hosts from different families and habitats.
