Plants are exposed to diverse abiotic stresses like drought, heat, salinity, and high-metal concentrations at different stages of their life cycle. As protection against stress, plants release signaling molecules that initiate a cascade stress-adaptation responses leading either programmed cell death or plant acclimation. Nitric oxide (NO) is small but important redox molecule in involved range physiological processes including germination, development, flowering, senescence, stress....
Advances in next-generation sequencing technologies facilitate the study of plant molecular functions detail and with precision. Plant genome proteome databases are continually being updated large transcriptomic or genomic datasets. With ever-increasing amount data, several thousands genes proteins public remain uncharacterized, their domain largely unknown. Such contain domains unknown function (DUF). In present study, we identified 231 upregulated 206 downregulated DUF from available...
<ns4:p>Background Insufficient awareness of foot self-care among diabetic individuals results in ulcers especially the Indian population considering its varied ethnicity and lifestyle practices. The management diabetes therefore demands a well-coordinated approach that involves multiple healthcare providers (HCPs). present study aims to develop validate an interprofessional collaborative (IPC) educational program involving HCPs efficiently oversee instruct public on appropriate strategies...
Fermented soybeans, cheonggukjang (CKJ), are considered to be more wholesome than soybeans in Korea. To select the best soybean cultivar for making functional CKJ, a comparison was made between biological activities of four cultivars their unfermented (UFS) and CKJ states. Changes 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging activity, 2,2′-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) assays, superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like total phenolic compounds, amino acids,...
Soilborne fungal diseases are most common among vegetable crops and have major implications for crop yield productivity. Eco-friendly sustainable agriculture practices that can overcome biotic abiotic stresses of prime importance. In this study, we evaluated the ability plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium (PGPR) Bacillus aryabhattai strain SRB02 to control effects tomato wilt disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp . lycopersici (strain KACC40032) promote growth. vitro bioassays showed...
In the last two decades, global environmental change has increased abiotic stress on plants and severely affected crops. For example, drought is a serious that rapidly substantially alters morphological, physiological, molecular responses of plants. Arabidopsis, several drought-responsive genes have been identified; however, underlying mechanism tolerance in remains largely unclear. Here, we report “domain unknown function” novel gene DUF569 (AT1G69890) positively regulates Arabidopsis. The...
The intrinsic defense mechanisms of plants toward pathogenic bacteria have been widely investigated for years and are still at the center interest in plant biosciences research. This study role AtbZIP62 gene encoding a transcription factor (TF) basal systemic acquired resistance Arabidopsis using reverse genetics approach. To achieve that, atbzip62 mutant line (lacking gene) was challenged with Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst DC3000) inoculated by infiltration into leaves rosette stage....
Cultivated peanut (Arachis hypogaea) is one of the important legume oilseed crops. has a narrow genetic base. Therefore, it necessary to widen its base and diversity for additional use. The objective present study was assess population structure 96 genotypes with 9478 high-resolution SNPs identified from 48 K 'Axiom_Arachis' SNP array. Korean set were also compared mini-core US genotypes. These sets used analysis. Model-based analysis at = 2 indicated presence two subpopulations in both...
Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is predominantly used for F1 hybrid breeding and seed production in Sorghum. DNA markers to distinguish between normal fertile (CMS-N) sterile (CMS-S) cytoplasm can facilitate cultivar development Sorghum programs. In this study, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequences of CMS-S Korean cultivars were obtained using next-generation sequencing. The de novo assembled size ATx623, line chloroplast, was 140,644bp. When compared CMS-N cp genomes, 19 single...
The adzuki bean Vigna angularis (Wild.) is an important leguminous crop cultivated mainly for food purposes in Asian countries; it represents a source of carbohydrates, digestible proteins, minerals, and vitamins. Aquaporins (AQPs) are crucial membrane proteins involved the transmembrane diffusion water small solutes all living organisms, including plants. In this study, we used whole genome sequence silico analysis to comprehensively identify 40 aquaporin (VaAQP) genes reveal how these...
Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is a globally cultivated crop of significant economic and nutritional importance. The role gibberellic-acid-stimulated Arabidopsis (GASA) family genes well established in plant growth, development, biotic abiotic stress responses. However, there gap understanding the function GASA proteins peanuts, particularly response to stresses such as drought salinity. Thus, we conducted comprehensive silico analyses identify verify existence 40 (termed AhGASA) peanuts....

Abstract Background Genetic variants influence the distribution of vitamin D in circulation leading to deficiency. The two extensively studied non-synonymous DBP single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs7041 and rs4588 are found different populations. aim this study was determine frequency DBPgene polymorphism andcompare free bioavailable levels among active tuberculosis patients, latent infection individuals,and those without infection. This across-sectional with 53 patients,23 individuals,...
Abstract Genetic variants influence the distribution of vitamin D in circulation leading to deficiency. This study aimed determine association between DBP gene polymorphism with bioavailability among active tuberculosis patients, latent Tuberculosis and no infection individuals. was a cross-sectional 52 23 individuals, 27 infection. Sanger sequencing performed single nucleotide polymorphisms were identified using BioEdit tool. Logistic regression used associations. Frequencies 97% Gc1F, 2%...
