Overexpression of WsSGTL1 Gene of Withania somnifera Enhances Salt Tolerance, Heat Tolerance and Cold Acclimation Ability in Transgenic Arabidopsis Plants

TL;DR: Transformation of WsSGTL1 gene in A. thaliana conferred abiotic stress tolerance and the promoter of the gene in W.somnifera was found to have stress responsive elements and the 3D structure showed functional similarity with sterol glycosyltransferases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Silencing of sterol glycosyltransferases modulates the withanolide biosynthesis and leads to compromised basal immunity of Withania somnifera.

TL;DR: It is revealed that a positive feedback regulation of withanolide biosynthesis occurred by silencing of SGTLs which resulted in reduced biotic tolerance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of Arabidopsis sterol glycosyltransferase TTG15/UGT80B1 role during freeze and heat stress

TL;DR: It may be concluded that due to low content of free sterols and sterol glycosides, the physiology of mutant plants was more affected during both, the chilling and heat stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Elicitation Enhanced the Yield of Glycyrrhizin and Antioxidant Activities in Hairy Root Cultures of Glycyrrhiza glabra L.

TL;DR: It is established that hairy root cultures of G. glabra, using an optimized elicitor, can dramatically enhance focused production of glycyrrhizin at a much faster pace year-round without causing destruction of the plant.
Journal ArticleDOI

Agrobacterium tumefaciens -mediated transformation protocol of Jatropha curcas L. using leaf and hypocotyl segments

TL;DR: Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation protocol has been optimized for Jatropha curcas—an important biofuel plant using leaf segments and hypocotyl segments from in vitro-seedlings using ‘GJ-Ran-C2’ was selected as the best for transformation.
