Oryza glaberrima a marais)”. The Portuguese accounts speak of the Falupo Jola, Landuma, Biafada, and Bainik growing rice. André Álvares de Almada wrote about the dike systems used for rice cultivation, from which modern West African rice dike systems are descended. African rice was brought to the Americas with the transatlantic slave trade, arriving in Brazil probably by the 1550s and in the U.S. in 1784. The seed was carried as provisions on slave ships, and the technology and skills needed to grow it were brought by enslaved rice farmers. Newly imported African slaves were marketed (and sometimes even trained) for their
Arogenate dehydratase hybrida", "Sorghum bicolor"", "and "Oryza sativa"", "which are all considered higher-order plants. "Erwinia herbicola"" and Pseudomonas aeruginosa"" "are known to" "have homologues for cyclohexadienyl dehydratase. Of the plants with ADT homologues, both "Arabidopsis thaliana "and "Petunia hybrida "are known to have paralogues for the gene (six and three, respectively). Arogenate dehydratase Arogenate dehydratase (ADT) (EC 4.2.1.91) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, L-arogenate, but 3 products:L-phenylalanine, HO, and CO. Certain forms of the protein have the potential to catalyze a second reaction, L-prephenate → L-phenylpyruvate + HO + CO This enzyme participates
