A revised view on the evolution of glutamine synthetase isoenzymes in plants
Valderrama-Martín, José Miguel; Ortigosa, Francisco; Ávila-Sáez, Concepción
; Cánovas-Ramos, Francisco Miguel; Hirel, Bertrand; Cantón, Francisco R.; Cañas-Pendón, Rafael Antonio[et al.] (Wiley, 2022-02)
Glutamine synthetase (GS) is a key enzyme responsible for the incorporation of inorganic nitrogen in the form of ammonium into the amino acid glutamine. In plants, two groups of functional GS enzymes are found: eubacterial ... -
Analysis of NPF and NRT transporter families regarding the nitrate nutrition in maritime pine (Pinus pinaster)
Valderrama-Martín, José Miguel; Ortigosa, Francisco; Ávila-Sáez, Concepción; Cánovas-Ramos, Francisco Miguel; Cañas-Pendón, Rafael Antonio (2019-07-08)
Nitrogen is an essential element for life and the main limiting nutrient for plant growth and development1. The main forms of inorganic nitrogen in soils are nitrate and ammonium, which relative abundances depend on ... -
Bioinformatics analysis of Pinus pinaster Aiton transcriptome in response to ammoniacal nutrition
(2019-07-30)Conifers have a great economic and environmental value. Nitrogen is an important limiting factor for the development of plants. Conifers are well adapted to ammonium nutrition since it is the main source of inorganic ... -
Biotechnological approaches to increase biomass production in trees
Pascual-Moreno, María Belén; Rueda-Lopez, Marina; Cánovas-Ramos, Francisco Miguel; Ávila-Sáez, Concepción (2018-07-12)
Nutrient use efficiency is one of the factors influencing growth and therefore of high importance for biomass production in trees. Poplar is a model tree widely used for molecular and functional studies and the characterization ... -
Nitrogen metabolism and gene expression landscape in maritime pine
Maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Aiton) is one the most important conifer species in the southwestern Mediterranean region because of its economic and environmental potential. For this reason, a work program in functional ... -
Pine has two glutamine synthetase paralogs, GS1b.1 and GS1b.2, exhibiting distinct biochemical properties
Valderrama-Martín, José Miguel; Ortigosa, Francisco; Aledo-Ramos, Juan Carlos; Ávila-Sáez, Concepción; Cánovas-Ramos, Francisco Miguel; Cañas-Pendón, Rafael Antonio[et al.] (Wiley, 2023)
The enzyme glutamine synthetase (EC 6.3.1.2) is mainly responsible for the incorporation of inorganic nitrogen into organic molecules in plants. In the present work, a pine (Pinus pinaster) GS1 (PpGS1b.2) gene was identified, ... -
Study of the NPF and NRT transporter families in the conifer Pinus pinaster
Valderrama-Martín, José Miguel; Ortigosa, Francisco; Ávila-Sáez, Concepción; Cánovas-Ramos, Francisco Miguel; Cañas-Pendón, Rafael Antonio (2019-07-29)
Nitrogen, in natural environments, is the main limiting nutrient for plant growth and development1. This essential element can be presented in different forms in the soils being the two main forms nitrate and ammonium, ... -
Transcriptomics of ammonium nutrition in the conifer Pinus pinaster Aiton
Ortigosa, Francisco; Lobato-Fernández, César; Valderrama-Martín, José Miguel; Ávila-Sáez, Concepción; Cánovas-Ramos, Francisco Miguel; Cañas-Pendón, Rafael Antonio[et al.] (2019-07-10)
Nitrogen is an important element for all living beings because it is part of macromolecules as significant as nucleic acids or amino acids. For plants, it constitutes a limiting factor in their growth and development1 due ...
