Journal ArticleDOI

Plants and human health in the twenty-first century

TL;DR: The history, future, scientific background and regulatory issues related to botanical therapeutics, including plant-derived pharmaceuticals, multicomponent botanical drugs, dietary supplements, functional foods and plant-produced recombinant proteins are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of plant roots for phytoremediation and molecular farming

TL;DR: Recent advances in plant-based biotechnologies designed to produce and secrete valuable natural products and recombinant proteins from roots are discussed and their potential in soil remediation, drug discovery, and molecular farming is assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Production of recombinant proteins in plant root exudates

TL;DR: Three heterologous proteins of diverse origins (green fluorescent protein of jellyfish, human placental alkaline phosphatase [SEAP], and bacterial xylanase) were produced using the root secretion method (rhizosecretion) and accumulated in much higher amounts in the medium than in the root tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI

Elimination and rearrangement of parental rDNA in the allotetraploid Nicotiana tabacum.

TL;DR: Repeated sequences in allopolyploid genomes are targets for molecular rearrangement, demonstrating the dynamic nature of allopolyPloid genomes.
