Transcriptional control of flavonoid biosynthesis by MYB–bHLH–WDR complexes

TL;DR: Recent advances in the characterization of the underlying regulatory mechanisms of flavonoid biosynthesis are reviewed, with a special focus on the MBW (MYB-bHLH-WDR) protein complexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhancement of oxidative and drought tolerance in Arabidopsis by overaccumulation of antioxidant flavonoids

TL;DR: Antioxidative activity assays showed that anthocyanin overaccumulation with strong in vitro antioxidative activity mitigated the accumulation of reactive oxygen species in vivo under oxidative and drought stress, confirming the usefulness of flavonoids for enhancing both biotic and abiotic stress tolerance in crops.
Journal ArticleDOI

Positive regulatory role of strigolactone in plant responses to drought and salt stress

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that genetic modulation of SL content/response could provide a new approach for development of crops with improved stress tolerance and cross-talk between SL and ABA plays an important role in integrating stress signals to regulate stomatal development and function.

Biosynthesis and Regulation of Phenylpropanoids in Plants

TL;DR: Phenylpropanoids are a large class of plant secondary metabolites derived from aromatic amino acids phenylalanine in most plants or tyrosine in partial monocots as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrated metabolomics for abiotic stress responses in plants

TL;DR: Integrated 'omics' analysis, centered on metabolomics with a series of plant resources differing in their flavonoid accumulation, showed experimentally that flavonoids play a major role in antioxidation in vivo and suggested the role of flav onoids in the vacuole.

Stress-Induced Phenylpropanoid Metabolism.

Richard A. Dixon, +1 more
- 01 Jul 1995 - 
TL;DR: Limiting discussion to stress-induced phenylpropanoids eliminates few of the structural classes, because many compounds that are constitutive in one plant species or tissue can be induced by various stresses in another species or in another tissue of the same plant.

Flavonoid Biosynthesis. A Colorful Model for Genetics, Biochemistry, Cell Biology, and Biotechnology

TL;DR: The role of flavonoids as the major red, blue, and purple pigments in plants has gained these secondary products a great deal of attention over the years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Flavonoids: biosynthesis, biological functions, and biotechnological applications.

TL;DR: Different strategies and achievements through the genetic engineering of flavonoid biosynthesis with implication in the industry and the combinatorial biosynthesis in microorganisms by the reconstruction of the pathway to obtain high amounts of specific compounds are discussed.
