Abstract Mutation of the ECERIFERUM9 (CER9) gene in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) causes elevated amounts 18-carbon-length cutin monomers and a dramatic shift cuticular wax profile (especially on leaves) toward very-long-chain free fatty acids tetracosanoic acid (C24) hexacosanoic (C26). Relative to wild type, cer9 mutants exhibit cuticle membrane thickness over epidermal cells ledges with increased occlusion stomatal pore. The phenotypes are associated delayed onset wilting plants...
Summary As important signal molecules, jasmonates (JAs) and green leaf volatiles (GLVs) play diverse roles in plant defense responses against insect pests pathogens. However, how plants employ their specific by modulating the levels of JA GLVs remains unclear. Here, we describe identification a role for rice HPL3 gene, which encodes hydroperoxide lyase (HPL), OsHPL3/CYP74B2, mediating plant‐specific responses. The loss‐of‐function mutant hpl3‐1 produced disease‐resembling lesions spreading...
Halophytes have evolved specialized strategies to cope with high salinity. The extreme halophyte sea lavender (Limonium bicolor) lacks trichomes but possesses salt glands on its epidermis that can excrete harmful ions, such as sodium, avoid damage. Here, we report a high-quality, 2.92-Gb, chromosome-scale L. bicolor genome assembly based combination of Illumina short reads, single-molecule, real-time long chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) data, and Bionano maps, greatly enriching the...
A novel mutant of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), having highly glossy inflorescence stems, postgenital fusion in floral organs, and reduced fertility, was isolated from an ethyl methanesulfonate-mutagenized population designated glossyhead1 (gsd1). The gsd1 locus mapped to chromosome 1, the causal gene identified as a new allele Acetyl-Coenzyme Carboxylase1 (ACC1), encoding main enzyme cytosolic malonyl-coenzyme synthesis. This, our knowledge, is first ACC1 that does not cause lethality...
Plant cuticular wax forms a hydrophobic structure in the cuticle layer covering epidermis as first barrier between plants and environments. Ammopiptanthus mongolicus, leguminous desert shrub, exhibits high tolerances to multiple abiotic stress. The physiological, chemical, transcriptomic analyses of epidermal permeability, metabolism related gene expression profiles under osmotic stress A. mongolicus leaves were performed. Physiological revealed decreased leaf permeability Chemical saturated...
Most, if not all, entomopathogenic fungi have been used as alternative control agents to decrease the insect resistance and harmful effects of insecticides on environment. Among them, Isaria fumosorosea has also shown great potential different pests. In present study, we explored immune response P. xylostella infection I. at time points by using RNA-Sequencing differential gene expression technology genomic level. To gain insight into host-pathogen interaction level, five libraries larvae...
The impact of water‐deficit stress on leaf cuticular waxes and cutin monomers, traits associated with cuticle permeability were examined in Shandong Yukon ecotypes Eutrema salsugineum (syn. Thellungiella salsuginea ). Although exhibits glaucous leaves, is non‐glaucous, wax amounts non‐stressed leaves 4.6‐fold higher than Shandong, due mainly to Yukon's eightfold fatty acids, especially the C 22 24 acid homologues. Water deficit caused a 26.9% increase total increased acids; 10.2% more Yukon,...
Plutella xylostella, a global key pest, is one of the major lepidopteran pests cruciferous vegetables owing to its strong ability resistance development wide range insecticides. Destruxin A, mycotoxin entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium anisopliae, has broad-spectrum insecticidal effects and been used as an alternative control strategy reduce harmful However, miRNA-regulated reactions against destruxin A have not elucidated yet. Therefore, here, identify immunity-related miRNAs, we...
Populus euphratica is an important native tree found in arid regions from North Africa and South Europe to China, known tolerate many forms of environmental stress, including drought. We describe cuticle waxes, cutin permeability for the heteromorphic leaves P. growing two riparian habitats that differ available soil moisture. Scanning electron microscopy revealed variation epicuticular wax crystallization associated with leaf type site. are dominated by cuticular alkanes, primary‐alcohols...
Plant cuticle lipids form outer protective layers to resist environmental stresses; however, the relationship between properties and cold tolerance is unclear. Here, extremophyte Thellungiella salsuginea was stressed under conditions (4 °C) of rosette leaves examined in terms epicuticular wax crystal morphology, chemical composition, cuticle-associated gene expression. The results show that induced formation distinct lamellas within ultrastructure. Cold stress caused 14.58% 12.04% increases...
Abstract Plutella xylostella has become the major lepidopteran pest of Brassica owing to its strong ability resistance development a wide range insecticides. Destruxin A, mycotoxin entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium anisopliae , broad-spectrum insecticidal effects. However, interaction mechanism destruxin A with immune system P. at genomic level is still not well understood. Here, we identified 129 immunity-related genes, including pattern recognition receptors, signal modulators, few...
The development of resistance by Plutella xylostella to almost all insecticides is significant concern over the world. Entomopathogenic fungi such as Isaria fumosorosea have been used an alternative insecticides. However, knowledge miRNA-regulated reactions against entomopathogenic still in its infant stage. In present study, P. was challenged with I. at four different time points (12 h, 18 24 and 36 h) including a control, build miRNA libraries Illumina sequencing. results differential...
Abstract Limonium sinuatum , a member of Plumbaginaceae commonly known as sea lavender, is widely used dried flower. Five L. varieties with different flower colors ( White Blue Pink Yellow and Purple ) are found in saline regions cultivated gardens. In the current study, we evaluated salt tolerance these under 250 mmol/L NaCl (salt-tolerance threshold) treatment to identify optimal variety suitable for planting lands. After measurement fresh weight (FW), dry (DW), contents Na + K Ca 2+ Cl −...
A gene encoding Mn-containing superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), designated as ThMSD, was cloned from salt cress (Eutrema halophilum) by reverse transcriptase - polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). The full length ThMSD (acc. No. EF413171) is 1 047 bp with an open reading frame (ORF) 693 bp. deduced 231-amino acid polypeptide had a predicted molecular mass 25.5 kDa, estimated pI 9.08, putative Mn-binding site. Recombinant protein expressed in...
Cuticular lipids, including wax and cutin, protect plants against external environmental stress. The relationship between the cuticle properties salt tolerance is not clear. In this article, photosynthetic physiological characteristics related to water use permeability were assessed in leaves of Thellungiella salsuginea under NaCl chemical composition cutin monomers, expression cuticle-associated genes also analyzed. results showed that net rate stomatal conductance T. decreased, efficiency...
