Abstract Whereas jasmonic acid (JA) and its amino conjugates, particularly JA-isoleucine (Ile), are known to play important roles in plant-herbivore interactions, whether other compounds also function as signals independently of JA-Ile conjugates elicit systemic responses unknown. To answer these questions, we simultaneously silenced JASMONATE-RESISTANT4 (JAR4) JAR6, two functionally redundant enzymes Nicotiana attenuata that conjugate JA acids produce plants (irjar4/6) with low levels...
Treatment with methyl jasmonate (MeJA) elicits herbivore resistance in many plant species and over-expression of JA carboxyl methyltransferase (JMT) constitutively increases JA-induced responses Arabidopsis. When wild-type (WT) Nicotiana attenuata plants are treated MeJA, a rapid transient endogenous burst is elicited, which turn levels nicotine trypsin proteinase inhibitors (TPIs) to larvae the specialist herbivore, Manduca sexta. All these impaired silenced lipoxygenase 3 expression...
The aim of this study is to investigate and compare how 12-weeks Tai Chi Chuan Baduanjin exercise can modulate brain structure memory function in older adults. Magnetic resonance imaging measurements (Wechsler Memory Scale-Chinese revised, WMS-CR) were applied at both the beginning end study. Results showed that could significantly increase grey matter volume (GMV) insula, medial temporal lobe, putamen after exercise. No significant differences observed GMV between groups. We also found...
Alternaria alternata (tobacco pathotype) is a necrotrophic fungus causing severe losses in Nicotiana species by infection of mature leaves. Similar to what has been observed cultivated tobacco, N. tabacum, young leaves wild attenuata, were more resistant A. than leaves, and this was correlated with stronger blue fluorescence induced after infection. However, the nature fluorescence-emitting compound, its role defence, regulation not clear. Silencing feruloyl-CoA 6ʹ-hydroxylase 1 (F6ʹH1),...
Summary Jasmonate (JA) and abscisic acid (ABA) are two major phytohormones involved in pathogen resistance. However, how their biosynthesis is regulated not well understood. We silenced NaWRKY70 wild tobacco Nicotiana attenuata determined its role regulating genes the production of JA, ABA phytoalexin capsidiol response to fungal Alternaria alternata using techniques including electrophoretic mobility shift, chromatin immunoprecipitation, transient overexpression virus‐induced gene...
Rapid alkalinization factor (RALF) is a 49-amino-acid peptide that rapidly alkalinizes cultivated tobacco cell cultures. In the native Nicotiana attenuata, NaRALF occurs as single-copy gene and highly expressed in roots petioles. Silencing transcript by transforming N. attenuata with an inverted-repeat construct generated plants (irRALF) normal wild-type (WT) above-ground parts, but grew longer produced trichoblasts developed into abnormal root hairs. Most localized 'bulge' without...
Knee osteoarthritis is a prevalent disorder with unsatisfactory treatment options. Both physical and mindful exercises may be able to relieve its pain symptoms. We compared the modulatory effects of different exercise modalities on periaqueductal grey (PAG) ventral tegmental area (VTA), which play important roles in descending opioidergic pathways reward/motivation systems patients knee osteoarthritis.We recruited randomised 140 into Tai Chi, Baduanjin, stationary cycling, health education...
Besides gene duplication and de novo generation, horizontal transfer (HGT) is another important way of acquiring new genes. HGT may endow the recipients with novel phenotypic traits that are for species evolution adaption to ecological niches. Parasitic systems expectedly allow occurrence at relatively high frequencies due their long-term physical contact. In plants, a number events have been reported between organelles parasites hosts, but host parasite nuclear genomes has rarely found.A...
Age-related cognitive decline is a significant public health concern. Recently, non-pharmacological methods such as physical activity and mental training practices have emerged promising low-cost to slow the progression of age-related memory decline. In this study, we investigated if Tai Chi Chuan (TCC)and Baduanjin can modulate fractional amplitude low-frequency fluctuations (fALFF) in different frequency bands (low-frequency: 0.01-0.08 Hz; slow-5: 0.01–0.027 slow-4: 0.027–0.073 Hz) improve...
Tai Chi Chuan was used for stroke survivors with balance impairments. However, even a short-form of includes forms that make the exercise challenging survivors. Yunshou (wave hands in cloud) is "mother" form and fundamental all styles, which considered more suitable feasible So this study designed to evaluate effects on community-based patients dysfunctions.A total 250 participants from 10 community health centers (5 per arm) were selected randomly allocated into group (TC group) or...
Capsidiol is a sesquiterpenoid phytoalexin produced in Nicotiana and Capsicum species response to pathogen attack. Whether capsidiol plays defensive role how its biosynthesis regulated the wild tobacco attenuata when plant attacked by Alternaria alternata (tobacco pathotype), notorious necrotrophic fungus causing brown spot disease, are unknown. Transcriptome analysis indicated that metabolic switch sesquiterpene occurred young leaves of N. after A. inoculation: many genes leading production...
Abstract WRKY transcription factors are involved in plant defense against pathogens. No WRKYs have been reported to be resistance tobacco brown spot disease caused by Alternaria alternata. Here, we found that NaWRKY3 plays a critical role Nicotiana attenuata A. bound and regulated many genes, including: lipoxygenase 3, ACC synthase 1, oxidase three jasmonate- ethylene-biosynthetic genes; feruloyl-CoA 6ʹ-hydroxylase 1 (NaF6ʹH1), the biosynthetic gene for phytoalexins scopoletin scopolin;...

As an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress sensor, inositol-requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1) splices the bZIP60 mRNA, and produces active transcription factor that regulates genes involved in unfolded protein response (UPR) during ER stresses. This IRE1-bZIP60 pathway is conserved plant species recently implicated plant-pathogen interaction. However, it unclear whether this Nicotiana attenuata resistance to necrotic fungal pathogen, Alternaria alternata. In study, transcriptional levels of chaperone...
Abstract The superoxide (O 2 − )‐generating NADPH oxidases are crucial for the defense of plants against attack from pathogens; however, it remains unknown whether they also mediate responses chewing insect herbivores. transcripts respiratory burst oxidase homolog Narboh D in Nicotiana attenuate rapidly and transiently elicited by wounding, amplified when Manduca sexta oral secretions (OS) added to wounds. fatty‐acid‐amino‐acid‐conjugates (FACs), demonstrably major elicitors M. OS,...
Abstract Endophytic fungi can be beneficial to plant growth. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying colonization of Acremonium spp. remain unclear. In this study, a novel endophytic strain was isolated from buds Panax notoginseng and named sp. D212. The D212 could colonize roots P. , enhance resistance root rot disease, promote growth saponin biosynthesis in notoginseng. secrete indole‐3‐acetic acid (IAA) jasmonic (JA), inoculation with fungus increased endogenous levels IAA JA ....
Fermented rose petals are a traditional delicacy of the Dali Bai community in Yunnan, China. Fermentation enhances quality and nutritional value roses, as well their efficacy, by increasing levels phenolic compounds. This study aimed to investigate significant variations four active compounds throughout fermentation process. Four Rosa rugosa 'Mohong,' were examined, among polyphenols antioxidant anti-inflammatory activities observed. These studied during Saccharomyces rouxii at varying...
Abstract Biosynthesis of the phytoalexins scopoletin and scopolin in Nicotiana species is regulated by upstream signals including jasmonate (JA), ethylene (ET), NaWRKY3 response to necrotrophic fungus Alternaria alternata, which causes brown spot disease. However, how these are coordinated regulate remains unknown. By analyzing RNA sequencing data RNAi, we identified NaERF1B-like (NaERF1B-L) as a key player attenuata during A. alternata infection regulating transcripts Feruloyl-CoA...
Balance dysfunction after stroke limits patients' general function and participation in daily life. Previous researches have suggested that Tai Chi exercise could offer a positive improvement older individuals' balance reduce the risk of falls. But convincing evidence for effectiveness enhancing with is still inadequate. Considering difficulties patients to complete whole exercise, current trial evaluates benefit Yunshou through cluster randomization, parallel-controlled design. A...
