Carotenoids and carotenoid cleavage products play an important integral role in plant development. The Decreased apical dominance1 (Dad1)/PhCCD8 gene of petunia (Petunia hybrida) encodes a hypothetical dioxygenase (CCD) ortholog the MORE AXILLARY GROWTH4 (MAX4)/AtCCD8 gene. dad1-1 mutant allele was inactivated by insertion unusual transposon (Dad-one transposon), dad1-3 is revertant dad1-1. Consistent with its producing graft-transmissible compound that can alter branching, Dad1/PhCCD8...
Most published genome sequences are drafts, and most dominated by computational gene prediction. Draft genomes typically incorporate considerable sequence data that not assigned to chromosomes, predicted genes without quality confidence measures. The current Actinidia chinensis (kiwifruit) 'Hongyang' draft has 164 Mb of unassigned pseudo-chromosomes, omissions have been identified in the models.A second an A. (genotype Red5) was fully sequenced. This new resulted a 554.0 assembly with all...
Abstract One of the key factors that defines plant form is regulation when and where branches develop. The diversity observed in nature results, part, from variation branching between species. Two CAROTENOID CLEAVAGE DIOXYGENASE (CCD) genes, CCD7 CCD8, are required for production a branch-suppressing hormone. Here, we report decreased apical dominance3 (dad3) mutant petunia (Petunia hybrida) results mutation PhCCD7 gene has less severe phenotype than PhCCD8 (dad1). An analysis expression...
Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) biovar 3, a virulent, canker-inducing pathogen is an economic threat to the kiwifruit (Actinidia spp.) industry worldwide. The commercially grown diploid (2×) A. chinensis var. more susceptible Psa than tetraploid and hexaploid kiwifruit. However information on genetic loci modulating resistance in not available. Here we report mapping of quantitative trait (QTLs) regulating population, derived from cross between elite Psa-susceptible 'Hort16A'...
Summary HUB 1, also known as Ubl5, is a member of the subfamily ubiquitin‐like post‐translational modifiers. 1 exerts its role by conjugating with protein targets. The function this has not been studied in plants. A gene, Lp , was identified from serial analysis gene expression data and cloned perennial ryegrass. reported previously to be elevated pastures during summer drought stress climate‐controlled growth chambers. Here, pasture‐type turf‐type transgenic ryegrass plants overexpressing...
Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae biovar 3 (Psa3) causes a devastating canker disease in yellow-fleshed kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis). The effector HopZ5, which is present all isolates of Psa3 causing global outbreaks pandemic disease, triggers immunity Nicotiana benthamiana and not recognised susceptible A. chinensis cultivars. In search for N. nonhost resistance genes against we found that the nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptor NbPTR1 HopZ5. RPM1-interacting protein 4...
Hops (Humulus lupulus L.) are a dioecious climbing perennial, with the dried mature "cones" (strobili) of pistillate/female inflorescences being widely used as both bittering agent and to enhance flavour beer. The glandular trichomes bract bracteole flowering structures cones produce an abundance secondary metabolites, such terpenoids, bitter acids prenylated phenolics depending on plant genetics, developmental stage environment. More knowledge is required functional allelic diversity...
Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) is a major grass species used for forage and turf throughout the world, gains by conventional breeding have reached plateau. an outcrossing, self-incompatible diploid (2n = 2x 14) with relatively large genome (4067 Mbp/diploid genome; Evans, G.M., Rees, H., Snell, C.L. Sun, S. (1972) The relation between nuclear DNA amount duration of mitotic cycle. Chrom. Today, 3, 24-31). Using tissues sourced from active pastures during peak autumn, winter, spring...
Hop aroma characteristics originate from hop essential oils, which have complex chemical profiles that remain poorly understood, particularly for New Zealand hops. The aim of this study was to determine volatile compounds distinguish cultivars. Untargeted fingerprinting methods based on headspace gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) were used analyse nine A total 61 identified as differentiated the commercial varieties using advanced chemometrics and feature selection techniques....
