Open AccessTranscriptional reprogramming strategies and miRNA-mediated regulation networks of Taxus media induced into callus cells from tissues
Taxus cells are a potential sustainable and environment-friendly source of taxol, but they have low survival ratios and slow grow rates. Despite these limitations, Taxus callus cells induced through 6 months of c...

Open AccessNew different origins and evolutionary processes of AP2/EREBP transcription factors in Taxus chinensis
Taxus spp. produces the anticancer drug, taxol, and hence is planted as an industrial crop in China. APETALA2/ethylene response element binding proteins (AP2/EREBPs) are the key regulators of plant development, g...
