In order to find a way induce rooting on cuttings of Hemarthria compressa cv. Ya’an under controlled conditions, project was carried out study the effect naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) in stem and related physiological changes during process compressa. The were treated with five concentrations NAA (0, 100, 200 300, 400 mg/l) at three soaking durations (10, 20, 30 minutes), without treatment considered as control. Samples planted immediately into pots after treatment. IAA-oxidase (IAAO)...
The phytohormone salicylic acid (SA) is a secondary metabolite that regulates plant growth, development and responses to stress. However, the role of SA in biosynthesis flavonoids (a large class metabolites) tea (Camellia sinensis L.) remains largely unknown. Here, we show exogenous methyl salicylate (MeSA, ester SA) increased flavonoid concentration leaves dose-dependent manner. While moderate MeSA (1 mM) resulted highest increase concentration, high (5 decreased leaves. A time-course...
Abstract Insect‐induced plant volatile organic compounds (VOCs) may function as either direct defence molecules to deter insects or indirect signals attract the natural enemies of invading insects. Tea ( Camellia sinensis L.), an important leaf‐based beverage crop, is mainly infested by Ectropis obliqua which causes most serious damage. Here, we report a mechanistic investigation tea plant‐derived VOCs in mechanism against E. . Parasitoid wasp Parapanteles hyposidrae , enemy showed strong...
Photosynthetic responses of potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Chunzao) were examined during virus Y (PVYNTN) infection. PVYNTN infection significantly reduced net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance, but had little influence on intercellular CO2 concentration. As the disease developed, maximum carboxylation velocity ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase electron transport contributing to regeneration gradually decreased, followed by substantial reductions in relative...
A fundamental understanding of the underlying mechanisms involved in biological invasions is crucial to developing effective risk assessment and control measures against invasive species. The fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda, a highly pest that has rapidly spread from its native Americas into much Eastern Hemisphere, with homogeneous nuclear genetic background. However, exact mechanism behind rapid introduction propagation remains unclear. Here, systematic investigation conducted...
Beneficial effects of spermidine (Spd) on alleviating abiotic stress damage have been explored in plants for hundreds years, but limited information is available about its roles regulating lipids signaling and metabolism during heat stress. White clover (Trifolium repens) were pretreated with 70 μM Spd then subjected to high temperature (38/33 °C) 20 days. To further investigate the effect tolerance, transgenic Arabidopsisthaliana overexpressing a TrSAMS encoding key enzyme involved...
Diurnal variation of gas exchange, chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence, and xanthophyll cycle components three maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids released in different years, i.e. Baimaya (1950s), Zhongdan2 (1970s), Nongda108 (1990s), were compared. On cloudless days, the newer always had higher net photosynthetic rate (P N), especially at noon, than older ones. At all decreased their maximal yield photosystem 2 (PS2) photochemistry (Fv/Fm) actual quantum PS2 (ΦPS2), ones showing values. Generally,...
Bambusa pervariabilis × Dendrocalamopsis grandis shoot blight caused by Arthrinium phaeospermum is a fungal disease that has affected large area in China recent years. However, it not clear which genes are responsible for the resistance of B. D. grandis. Based on analysis transcriptome and proteome data, two genes, CCoAOMT2 CAD5, may be involved resistance, were screened. Two gene expression-interfering varieties, COF RNAi CAD successfully obtained using technology. Quantitative real-time...
Flavanols are known as the most important antioxidants in tea (Camellia sinensis), but their contribution to antioxidant capacity across cultivars has not been quantified. This study explored whether variations of could be linked main flavanol concentrations using 20 widely planted Chinese cultivars. The results showed that flavanols, both monomeric (total catechins; 3.77%–8.85% d.w.) and polymeric forms (condensed tannins; 9.48%–17.67% d.w.), varied largely total catechins (R2 = 0.54–0.55)...
Soil salinization is one of the main abiotic stress factors impacting growth crops and agricultural industry today. Thus, we aimed to investigate effects H2O2 pretreatment on seed germination in Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum) seeds under salt evaluate this species’ tolerance. Through preliminary experiment, study used 50 mmol L−1 NaCl solution induce stress. After soaking for 12 h different concentrations, were laid Petri dishes with seven days parameters physiological indicators...
In this work, a series of PLGA‐PEG diblock copolymers were synthesized by ring‐opening polymerization L ‐lactide and glycolide using mPEG as macroinitiator stannous octoate catalyst. Spherical micelles obtained from the various co‐solvent evaporation method. The biocompatibility was evaluated with aim assessing their potential in development drug delivery systems. Various aspects considered, including MTT assay, agar diffusion test, release cytokines, hemolytic dynamic clotting time, protein...
Plant growth, chlorophyll (Chl) content, photosynthetic gas exchange, ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (RuBPCO) enzyme activity, and Chl fluorescence in radish (Raphanus sativus var. longipinnatus) plants were examined after turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) infection. fresh mass, dry net rate (PN), transpiration (E), stomatal conductance (gs), RuBPCO activity significantly lower infected 5 weeks of infection as compared to healthy plants. The 5-week did not induce significant differences...
White clover is a widely grown temperate legume forage with high nutritional value. Research on the functional genomics of white requires stable and efficient transformation system. In this study, we successfully induced calluses from cotyledons leaves 10 different varieties. The results showed that callus formation rate in did not vary significantly among varieties, but highest was observed 'Koala' leaves. Subsequently, concentrations antioxidants hormones were tested browning...
Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum, Polygonaceae) is an annual plant originating in Southwest China. It has a short growth cycle, barren soil tolerance, and strong stress resistance (Zhang et al. 2021). Because of its high content proteins, starch, trace elements, phenols, dietary fiber, beneficial to the human body hence received widespread attention (Joshi 2019; Dc ja, B, 2020). In period from September November 2020, diseased infected with gray mold was found among M2 generation...
