The native potatoes (Solanum tuberosum ssp. tuberosum L.) cultivated on Chiloé Island in southern Chile have great variability in terms of tuber shape, size, color and flavor. These traits have been preserved throughout generations due to the geographical position of Chiloé, as well as the differ...

Main conclusion: Aluminum toxicity and sulfate deprivation both regulate microRNA395 expression, repressing its low-affinity sulfate transporter (SULTR2;1) target. Sulfate deprivation also induces the high-affinity sulfate transporter gene (SULTR12), allowing enhanced sulfate uptake. Few studies ...
Water-use efficiency (WUE) is a quantitative measurement of biomass produced per volume of water transpired by a plant. WUE is an important physiological trait for drought response to mitigate the water deficiency. In this work, a cisgenic construction from Citrus sinensis was developed and its f...
