... Muscadine grapes (Vitis rotundifolia) have multiple health benefits to human health. The high nutritional values of muscadine berries result from antioxidative anthocyanins and other phenolic compounds. Since the middle of the 18th century, muscadine grapes have been cropped in the southeastern United States. Early cultivars were selected from wild vines. To date, the breeding efforts have created ...

Subject:
calcium; genomics; glutamic acid; homeostasis; plant biology; stress tolerance; synergism
Abstract:
... Calcium (Ca²⁺) is an essential macronutrient as well as a second messenger in diverse biological processes in plants. Plants perceive various stimuli which leads to transient increase in cytosolic calcium [Ca²⁺]cyₜ levels, resulting in generation of Ca²⁺ signatures. These Ca²⁺ signatures are specific to various stress stimuli and developmental processes and are perceived by Ca²⁺ sensors. Ca²⁺ sens ...
