DOI: 10.1002/1873-3468.14418
Abstract: A recent study showed that deletion of the gene encoding the transcription regulator SuPpressor of Ty10 (SPT10) increases total phospholipids, and our previous study established a critical link between phospholipids and the mevalonate/ergosterol (MEV/ERG) pathway,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00425-020-03369-3
Abstract: Main conclusion A hypothesis that squalene cyclase genes are widely distributed throughout ferns was proposed. We successfully isolated a squalene cyclase pseudogene from a fern from which no triterpene hydrocarbons were detected Abstract Ferns are… read more here.

Triterpene-Enriched Olive Extract as an Immunopotentiator in Black Sea Bream (Acanthopagrus schlegelii)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Journal of Ocean University of China"
DOI: 10.1007/s11802-020-4232-8
Abstract: Recently, the use of natural immunopotentiators, such as plant extracts, is predicted to offer high disease-prevention potential in aquaculture. However, few reports on the immunomodulatory impacts of olive extract (OE) on teleost are available. Therefore,… read more here.
