DOI: 10.1016/j.indcrop.2021.113819
Abstract: Abstract Crop establishment costs of guayule (Parthenium argentatum A. Gray), a perennial desert shrub that produces natural rubber, can be significantly reduced using direct seeding rather than the traditional practice of transplanting greenhouse-grown seedlings. However,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/metabo12040303
Abstract: Production of natural rubber by Parthenium argentaum (guayule) requires increased yield for economic sustainability. An RNAi gene silencing strategy was used to engineer isoprenoid biosynthesis by downregulation of squalene synthase (SQS), such that the pool… read more here.
