Plant non-specific lipid-transfer proteins (nsLTPs) are small, basic proteins present in
abundance in higher plants. They are involved in key processes of plant cytology, such as …

The non-specific lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) constitute a large protein family found in all
land plants. They are small proteins characterized by a tunnel-like hydrophobic cavity, which …

Wheat supplies about 20% of the total food calories consumed worldwide and is a national
staple in many countries. Besides being a key source of plant proteins, it is also a major …

The clubroot disease of Brassicaceae is caused by the obligate biotrophic protist
Plasmodiophora brassicae. The disease is characterized by abnormal tumorous swellings of …

In this study, we carried out an evolutionary, transcriptional, and functional analyses of the
trihelix transcription factor family. A total of 319 trihelix members, identified from 11 land …

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the major grain crops, and heat stress adversely
affects wheat production in many regions of the world. Previously, we found a heat …

Roots from salt-susceptible ICSR-56 (SS) sorghum plants display metaxylem elements with
thin cell walls and large diameter. On the other hand, roots with thick, lignified cell walls in …

The highly variable and species-specific pollen surface patterns are formed by
sporopollenin accumulation. The template for sporopollenin deposition and polymerization …

Plant non-specific lipid transfer proteins (nsLTPs) are involved in many biological processes.
In this study, 51, 47 and 91 nsLTPs were identified in Gossypium arboreum, G. raimondii …

Phylogenetic analysis was conducted on 9 kDa non-specific lipid transfer protein (nsLTP)
genes from nine plant species. Each of the five classified types in angiosperms exhibited …
