High impact information on Tropaeolum

Here, we show that evolution of leaf peltation in Tropaeolum majus, a species distantly related to Arabidopsis thaliana, was associated with altered expression of Tropaeolum majus FILAMENTOUS FLOWER (TmFIL), a gene conferring abaxial identity [1].
In vitro and in vivo antitumor activity of benzyl isothiocyanate: a natural product from Tropaeolum majus [2].
Using this new method, the activity of Tropaeolum majus myrosinase towards glucotropaeolin was analyzed [3].

Biological context of Tropaeolum

Cultured cells of Tropaeolum majus produce significant amounts of benzyl glucosinolate which, through enzymatic hydrolysis, results in the production of benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) [2].

Gene context of Tropaeolum

Developmental events leading to peltate leaf structure in Tropaeolum majus (Tropaeolaceae) are associated with expression domain changes of a YABBY gene [1].
