Lipid droplet-associated proteins (LDAPs) play essential roles in tissue growth and development and in drought stress responses in plants. Cotton is an important fiber and cash crop; however, the LDAP family has not been characterized in cotton. In this study, a total of 14, six, seven, and seven...

A WRI family regulator gene named CpWRI3 was cloned from papaya fruit. Amino acid sequence alignment and evolutionary analyses showed that CpWRI3 has high homology with AtWRI3/4. Transcriptional factor activity analysis showed that CpWRI3 has transcriptional activate function. The expression level...

Carotenoid bioaccessibility is an important predictor of absorption and provitamin A intake. Humans do not synthesize carotenoids which need to be acquired from the diet, mainly from green leafy vegetables and fruits with colors from yellow to red. The carotenoid composition of five industrialized...
