Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Brassinazole, a Triazole-Type Brassinosteroid Biosynthesis Inhibitor
Tadao Asami,Yong Ki Min,Noriko Nagata,Kazutoshi Yamagishi,Suguru Takatsuto,Shozo Fujioka,Noboru Murofushi,Isomaro Yamaguchi,Shigeo Yoshida +8 more
TL;DR: The result suggests that BRs are essential for plant growth, and that brassinazole can be used to clarify the function of BRs in plants as a complement to BR-deficient mutants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Involvement of Jasmonic Acid in Elicitor-Induced Phytoalexin Production in Suspension-Cultured Rice Cells
Hideaki Nojiri,Miho Sugimori,Hisakazu Yamane,Yoshiki Nishimura,A. Yamada,N. Shibuya,O. Kodama,Noboru Murofushi,Toshio Omori +8 more
TL;DR: The results strongly suggest that jasmonic acid functions as a signal transducer in the induction of biosynthesis of momilactone A by N-acetylchitoheptaose in suspension-cultured rice cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular cloning and characterization of a cDNA encoding the gibberellin biosynthetic enzyme ent‐kaurene synthase B from pumpkin (Cucurbita maxima L.)
TL;DR: The first committed step in the formation of diterpenoids leading to gibberellin (GA) biosynthesis is the conversion of geranylgeranyl diphosphate to ent-kaurene, and the deduced amino acid sequence shares significant homology with other terpene cyclases, including the conserved DDXXD motif.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluctuation and Localization of Endogenous Gibberellins in Rice
TL;DR: Results suggest that 13-H GAs may be biosynthesized in specific organs at a specific stage of the life cycle, and that they may be concerned with the regulation of reproductive growth, while vegetative growth is regulated by 13-OH GAs, probably GA1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Light effects on endogenous levels of gibberellins in photoblastic lettuce seeds
Tomonobu Toyomasu,Hiroko Tsuji,Hisakazu Yamane,Masayoshi Nakayama,Isomaro Yamaguchi,Noboru Murofushi,Nobutaka Takahashi,Yasunori Inoue +7 more
TL;DR: Gibberellin A1 (GA1), 3-epi-GA1 GA17, GA19, GA20, and GA77 were identified by Kovats retention indices and full-scan mass spectra from gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis of a purified extract of mature seeds of photoblastic lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. cv) as discussed by the authors.
