• Finding and analyzing plant metabolic gene clusters 

      Osbourn, A.; Papadopoulou, K. K.; Qi, X.; Field, B.; Wegel, E. (2012)
      Plants produce an array of diverse secondary metabolites with important ecological functions, providing protection against pests, diseases, and abiotic stresses. Secondary metabolites are also a rich source of bioactive ...
    • Glucosinolate biosynthesis in Eruca sativa 

      Katsarou D., Omirou M., Liadaki K., Tsikou D., Delis C., Garagounis C., Krokida A., Zambounis A., Papadopoulou K.K. (2016)
      Glucosinolates (GSLs) are a highly important group of secondary metabolites in the Caparalles order, both due to their significance in plant-biome interactions and to their chemoprotective properties. This study identified ...
    • Overexpression of a biotic stress‐inducible pvgstu gene activates early protective responses in tobacco under combined heat and drought 

      Stavridou E., Voulgari G., Michailidis M., Kostas S., Chronopoulou E.G., Labrou N.E., Madesis P., Nianiou‐obeidat I. (2021)
      Drought and heat stresses are major factors limiting crop growth and productivity, and their effect is more devastating when occurring concurrently. Plant glutathione transferases (GSTs) are differentially expressed in ...
