Characterisation of six α-expansin genes in Gossypium hirsutum (upland cotton) (2002, background): “The C-terminal portions of all G. hirsutum a-expansins, and those of many other species, contain a series of Trp (W) residues and they lack N-linked glycosylation sites (Wu et al. 2001).”
Salt stress in maize: effects, resistance mechanisms, and management. A review (2015, background): “In conjunction with the evolution of the grass cell wall, β-expansins in maize have developed specialized functions with a distinct set of matrix polysaccharides and structural proteins (Carpita 1996; Wu et al. 2001).”
Comprehending crystalline β-carotene accumulation by comparing engineered cell models and the natural carotenoid-rich system of citrus (2011, unknown): “Expansin activities have also been found to be influenced by various abiotic stresses, such as drought (Wu et al., 2001; Jones and McQueen-Mason, 2004; Li et al., 2011; Zhao et al., 2011), flooding (Cho and Kende, 1997; Huang et al.”
