Plant fitness is highly dependent on the ability to cope with multiple (a)biotic environmental cues, such as light and interacting organisms. Complex signaling networks driven by perception of these cues and involving endogenously produced phytohormones, program the appropriate cellular and organismal response and steer plant development and metabolism to promote fitness and survival. Oft…
Due to the high consumption and the biochemical profile, tomato fruit is an important component of the human diet contributing significant amounts of antioxidant compounds, such as carotenoids and tocopherols. Since these nutraceuticals are synthesized in the plastids, plastidial abundance and activity directly impact in the nutricional quality of the fruits. The differentiation and activ…
Leaf senescence initiates when photosynthetic potential riches the maximum capacity and during its progression photochemical activity decreases due to the degradation of the photosynthetic machinery and nutrients are translocated to non-senescent plant organs. Several evidences indicate that the delay of senescence maintaining the production of photosynthates for longer periods results in…
Besides its economical and nutritional importance, Solanum lycopersicum is a model system for plant physiology studies. The fresh fruit as well as the derivatives are sources of several antioxidants including vitamin E (VTE). The understanding of the mechanisms involved in the biosynthesis, transport and accumulation of VTE in plants is highly desirable due its significant role in human h…

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is an important source of nutraceutical compounds for human diet, mostly synthesized in the plastids (e.g. carotenoids and tocopherols). During ripening, the fruits suffer remarkable physiological and biochemical changes associated with chloroplast-to-chromoplast conversion. Thus, the number and activity of fruit chloroplasts, besides the role in carbon fi…
BBX proteins encompass a group of zinc-finger transcription factors that contain at least one conserved B-box domain in their N-terminal region. In Arabidopsis thaliana, 32 BBXprotein-encoding loci have been identified, which play important roles as regulators of flowering, circadian clock, photo and skotomorphogenesis, biotic and abiotic stress responses, and light signaling transduction…

BBX proteins encompass a group of zinc-finger transcription factors that contain at least one conserved B- box domain in their N-terminal region, which play important roles as regulators of flowering, circadian clock, photo and skotomorphogenesis, biotic and abiotic stress responses, and light signaling transduction. Several BBX proteins that regulate shade avoidance have been identified,…
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is an important source of nutraceutical compounds for human diet, many of which are totally or partially synthesized in the plastids (e.g. carotenoids and tocopherols). During ripening, the fruits suffer remarkable physiological and biochemical changes associated with chloroplast-to-chromoplast conversion. Phytochrome-mediated light signal transduction reg…
Tomato is a species of great economical and nutritional importance. Since sugars and health-promoting metabolites are synthesized in the plastids, factors regulating plastid abundance, structure and activity directly affect tomato nutritional quality. Among them, light and temperature are key ambient factors regulating the biogenesis and activity of this organelle. In this context, the ma…
Tomato fruits are source of health-promoting antioxidant substances, such as ascorbic acid, carotenoids and tocopherols (Vitamin E, VTE). The accumulation of these plastid-derived compounds is affected by light, as this signal has a strong role in regulating chloroplast maintenance and activity. For example, silencing of DE-ETIOLATED 1 gene, a negative effector in light signal transductio…
