   2.5.1.20 | evolution |
a detailed sequence structure analysis of the most prominent variant, RubCPT1 from five genotypes reveales that despite their common Wickham base origin, there exists abundant genetic diversity in this important rubber biosynthesis gene among them. The abundance of non-synonymous SNPs and their inheritance pattern indicate that most of the SNP substitutions are not of recent origin but is the result of naturally occurred recombination events present in the seeds even before they are collected by Sir Hendry Wickham from the Amazon base |

CPT-RNAi plants indicate a significant reduction in rubber biosynthesis and a corresponding 50% increase in the levels of triterpenes and inulin, the primary storage carbohydrate compared to wild-type plants. The laticifers in CPT-RNAi plants contained fewer and smaller rubber particles than wild-type laticifers. And a decrease is noted in the activity of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase, a key enzyme in the mevalonate pathway, reflecting homeostatic control of the isopentenyl diphosphate pool, CPT RNAi silencing phenotypes, overview |
