Journal ArticleDOI
Determinations of total carotenoids and chlorophylls a and b of leaf extracts in different solvents
TL;DR: Pfister et al. as mentioned in this paper used a t.1.c. method (Lichtenthaler 8t Pfister, 1978) that permits a distinct separation of the two chlorophylls and also the major carotenoids using light petroleum (b.p. 40-6O0C)/dioxane/propan-2-ol (7 :3 : 1, by vol.) as a developing solvent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chlorophylls and Carotenoids: Measurement and Characterization by UV‐VIS Spectroscopy
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss methods used to account for such overlap by applying equations for accurate quantitative determination of chlorophyll (Chl) a, Chl b, and total carotenoids in the same pigment extract of leaves or fruits.
Journal ArticleDOI
The 1-deoxy-d-xylulose-5-phosphate pathway of isoprenoid biosynthesis in plants
TL;DR: The DOXP pathway of IPP formation starts from D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and pyruvate, with DOXP-synthase as the starting enzyme, and provides new insight into the regulation of chloroplast metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibitors of the Nonmevalonate Pathway of Isoprenoid Biosynthesis as Antimalarial Drugs

TL;DR: A mevalonate-independent pathway of isoprenoid biosynthesis present in Plasmodium falciparum was shown to represent an effective target for chemotherapy of malaria and the presence of two genes encoding the enzymes DOXP synthase and DOXP reductoisomerase suggests that isoprene biosynthesis in P. falcIParum depends on the DOXP pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vegetation stress : an introduction to the stress concept in plants
TL;DR: A new dimension in early stress detection in plants has been achieved by the novel high resolution fluorescence imaging analysis of plants, which not only senses the chlorophyll fluorescence, but also the bluegreen fluorescence emanating from epidermis cell walls which can change under stress induced strain.
