Adaptation to sorbic acid in low sugar promotes resistance of spoilage yeasts to the preservative

H. J. Harvey, A. C. Hendry, M. Chirico, D. B. Archer, S. V. Avery

This study shows that spoilage yeasts become more resistant to sorbic acid in low-glucose conditions due to metabolic shifts, with succinic acid supplementation reversing this resistance.

LYS3 encodes a prolamin-box-binding transcription factor that controls embryo growth in barley and wheat

K. Trafford, B. Orman-Ligeza, P. Borrill, T. Chia, M. Chirico, J. Dolezel, S. Drea, M. Karafiatov, N. Schatlowski, C. U. Solomon, B. Steuernagel, B. B. H. Wulff, C. Uauy

This study identifies LYS3 as a gene encoding PBF, a transcription factor that suppresses embryo growth and influences starch metabolism in barley and wheat.

A carbohydrate-binding protein, FLOURY ENDOSPERM 6 influences the initiation of A- and B-type starch granules in wheat.

T. Chia, M. Chirico, R. King, R. Ramirez-Gonzalez, B. Saccomanno, D. Seung, J. Simmonds, M. Trick, C. Uauy, T. Verhoeven, K. Trafford

This paper identifies FLOURY ENDOSPERM 6 (FLO6) as a gene influencing starch granule initiation in wheat, with differential effects on A- and B-type granules depending on developmental stage.
