ABSTRACT There is a global emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains Klebsiella pneumoniae , Gram-negative enteric bacterium that causes nosocomial and urinary tract infections. While the epidemiology K. occurrences specific antibiotic resistance genes, such as plasmid-borne extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), have been extensively studied, only four complete genomes are available. To better understand multidrug factors in we determined by pyrosequencing nearly genome DNA sequences...
We investigated if elevated CO2 could alleviate the negative effect of high temperature on fruit yield strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch. cv. Toyonoka) at different levels nitrogen and also tested combined effects CO2, quality plants cultivated in controlled growth chambers. Results show that caused a further 12% 35% decrease low nitrogen, respectively. The fewer inflorescences smaller umbel size during flower induction reduction temperature. Interestingly, application has no beneficial...
Melatonin is a low-cost natural small indole molecule with versatile biological functions. However, melatonin's fungicidal potential has not been fully exploited, and the mechanism remains elusive. Here, we report that melatonin broadly inhibited 13 plant pathogens. In rice blast fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae, growth, formation of infection-specific structures named appressoria, infection, reducing disease severity. entered cells efficiently colocalized critical mitogen-activated...
As with the majority of hemibiotrophic fungal pathogens, rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae uses highly specialized infection structures called appressoria for plant penetration. Appressoria differentiated from germ tubes rely on enormous turgor pressure to directly penetrate cell, in which process lipid metabolism plays a critical role. In this study, we characterized MoPAH1 gene M. oryzae, encoding putative conserved phosphatidate phosphatase. The expression was up-regulated during...
ABSTRACT Coronavirus (CoV) 3C-like protease (3CL pro ) is essential for viral replication and involved in immune escape by proteolyzing host proteins. Deep profiling the 3CL substrates proteome extends our understanding of pathogenesis facilitates antiviral drug discovery. Here, from porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), an enteropathogenic CoV, was used as a model which to identify potential cleavage motifs all We characterized selectivity PEDV at sites P5–P4′. then compiled substrate...
This study aimed to determine whether modification of physiological parameters could be detected remotely by monitoring the spectral reflectance olive leaves in response different degrees drought. Three drought intensities were simulated: (a) a mild feeding abscisic acid detached branches; (b) rapid and severe detaching letting them dry over several hours; (c) relatively slow caused withholding water potted plants. The three stress affected gas exchange chlorophyll fluorescence. When...
Abstract Background Diospyros oleifera Cheng, of the family Ebenaceae, is an economically important tree. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that D. closely related to kaki Thunb. and could be used as a model plant for studies kaki. Therefore, development genomic resources will facilitate auxiliary assembly hexaploid persimmon genome elucidate molecular mechanisms traits. Findings The was assembled with 443.6 Gb raw reads using Pacific Bioscience Sequel Illumina HiSeq X Ten platforms. final...
Abstract Background HL-085 is a selective, orally administered MEK1/2 inhibitor. We aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of in patients with advanced melanoma harboring NRAS mutations. Methods This was multicenter phase 1 study. twice daily standard 3 + dose-escalation design (10 dose cohorts; 0.5–18 mg daily), followed by expansion at recommended II (RP2D). The primary endpoints included tolerability, dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), maximum tolerated (MTD) RP2D. Results Between September...
Plant diseases cause enormous economic losses in agriculture and threaten global food security, application of agrochemicals is an important means to control crop diseases. Thus, exploring disease-resistant mechanisms synthesis highly bioactive are great importance. Here, we showed that propranolol, a phosphatidate phosphatase (Pah) inhibitor, effectively suppressed fungal growth, sporulation, sexual reproduction, plant infection on diverse plants. The MoPah1 enzyme activity the rice blast...
<title>Abstract</title> In this study, we isolated a novel mycovirus from <italic>Lasiodiplodia pseudotheobromae</italic> strain YY-1, which named “Lasiodiplodia pseudotheobromae Mycovirus 1” (LpMyV1). The complete genome of LpMyV1 is 2877 bp in length and contains two non-overlapping open reading frames (ORF1 ORF2). ORF1 encodes putative protein 316 amino acids with molecular weight 34.1 kDa, shares similarity the coat proteins several mycoviruses. ORF2 561 63.2 conserved RNA-dependent RNA...
The use of chlorophyll fluorescence measurements and RGB intensity values to noninvasively evaluate changes the internal chemical parameters (total flavonoid, total phenols, ABTS cation DPPH radical scavenging activities sugars) was investigated during all development stages (ST) last four mulberry fruits in this study. appropriately fitted relationships study revealed that have high correlations with fruits. Especially, each has higher period ST4–ST7 than ST1–ST7 respectively. High between...
Rice direct seeding technology has been considered as a promising alternative to traditional transplanting because of its advantages in saving labor and water. However, the poor emergence seedling growth caused by chill stress are main bottlenecks wide-scale adoption direct-seeded rice Heilongjiang Province, China. Here, we found that natural plant regulator guvermectin (GV) effectively improved seed germination under chilling stress. Results from 2 year field trials showed seed-soaking with...
Abstract Each oomycete pathogen encodes a large number of effectors. Some effectors can be used in crop disease resistance breeding, such as to accelerate R gene cloning and utilisation. Since cytoplasmic may cause acute physiological changes host cells at very low concentrations, we assume that some these serve functional genes for transgenic plants. Here, generated Nicotiana benthamiana plants express Phytophthora sojae CRN (crinkling necrosis) effector, PsCRN115 . We showed its expression...
The fruit of the persimmon (Diospyros kaki.) has high economic and nutritional value is rich in flavonoids. Flavonoids are essential secondary metabolisms plants. association between astringency changes proanthocyanidins (a flavonoid subclass) content well-known. However, information on relationships different types other subclasses biosynthetic genes more limited. In this study, an initial correlation analysis total flavonoids type, KEGG metabolites showed that flavonoid-related pathways...
Melatonina natural harmless molecule-displays versatile roles in human health and crop disease control such as for rice blast. Rice blast, caused by the filamentous fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, is one devastating of rice. Application fungicides major measures various diseases. However, fungicide resistance pathogen relevant environmental pollution are becoming serious problems. By screening possible synergistic combinations, here, we discovered an eco-friendly combination blast control,...
Artificially improving persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.), one of the most important fruit trees, remains challenging owing to lack reference genomes. In this study, we generated an allele-aware chromosome-level genome assembly for autohexaploid 'Xiaoguotianshi' (Chinese-PCNA type) using PacBio CCS and Hi-C technology. The final contained 4.52 Gb, with a contig N50 value 5.28 Mb scaffold 44.01 Mb, which 4.06 Gb (89.87%) were anchored onto 90 pseudomolecules comprising 15 homologous groups 6...
As phospholipids of cell membranes, phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and phosphatidylserine (PS) play crucial roles in glycerophospholipid metabolism. Broadly, some phospholipid biosynthesis enzymes serve as potential fungicide targets. Therefore, revealing the functions mechanism PE plant pathogens would provide targets for crop disease control. We performed analyses including phenotypic characterizations, lipidomics, enzyme activity, site-directed mutagenesis, chemical inhibition assays to...
