Plant and fruit surfaces are covered with cuticle wax provide a protective barrier against biotic abiotic stresses. Cuticle consists of very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) their derivatives. β-Ketoacyl-CoA synthase ( KCS ) is key enzyme in the synthesis VLCFAs provides precursor for wax, but gene family was yet to be reported passion Passiflora edulis ). In this study, thirty-two genes were identified genome phylogenetically grouped as KCS1 -like, FAE1 FDH CER6 -like. Furthermore,...
Flavonoids play a key role as secondary antioxidant defense system against different biotic and abiotic stresses, also act coloring compounds in various fruiting plants. In this study, fruit samples of purple (Passiflora edulis f. edulis) yellow flavicarpa) passion were collected at five developmental stages (i.e., fruitlet, green, veraison, maturation, ripening stage) from an orchard located Nanping, Fujian, China. The contents flavonoid, anthocyanin, proanthocyanin, their metabolites...
Plant surfaces are covered with cuticle wax and the first barrier between a plant environmental stresses. Eceriferum (CER) is an important gene family involved in biosynthesis stress resistance. In this study, for time, 34 CER genes were identified passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) genome, PeCER proteins varied physicochemical properties. A phylogenetic tree was constructed divided into seven clades to identify evolutionary relationship other species. Gene structure analyses revealed that...
The bulb formation of Lilium is affected by many physiological and biochemical phenomena, including flower bud differentiation, starch sucrose accumulation, photoperiod, carbon fixation, plant hormone transduction, etc. transcriptome analysis buds hybrid ‘Siberia’ at different maturity stages showed that floral associated with the accumulation anthocyanins. results HPLC-MS cyanidin major anthocyanin found in ‘Siberia’. Transcriptome KEGG enrichment qRT-PCR validation two genes related to...
This study explores the impact of RNAi in terms selectively inhibiting expression OsBBTI5 gene, with primary objective uncovering its involvement molecular mechanisms associated salt tolerance rice. OsBBTI5, belonging to Bowman–Birk inhibitor (BBI) family is known for plant stress responses. The gene was successfully cloned from rice, exhibiting transcriptional self-activation yeast. A yeast two-hybrid assay confirmed specific binding OsAPX2 (an ascorbate peroxidase gene). Transgenic...
Production of passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) is restricted by postharvest decay, which limits the storage period. We isolated, identified, and characterized fungal pathogens causing decay in two cultivars during seasons China. Morphological characteristics nucleotide sequences ITS-rDNA regions identified eighteen isolates, were pathogenic on yellow purple fruit. Fusarium kyushuense, concentricum, Colletotrichum truncatum, Alternaria alternata most aggressive species. Visible inspections...
Aluminum-activated malate transporters (ALMTs) have multiple potential roles in plant metabolism such as regulation of organic acids fruits, movement guard cells and inducing tolerance against aluminum stress. However, the systematic characterization ALMT genes loquat is yet to be performed. In current study, 24 putative were identified genome Eriobotrya japonica Lindl. To further investigate role those genes, comprehensive bioinformatics expression analysis analysis, physiochemical...
The formation of underground stem bulblets in lilies is a complex biological process which key their micropropagation. Generally, it involves stem-to-bulblet transition; however, the underlying mechanism remains elusive. It important to understand regulatory bulblet for reproductive efficiency Lilium. In this study, we investigated under different conditions regarding gravity point angle stem, i.e., vertical (control), horizontal, and slanting. horizontal slanting group displayed better...
Passion fruit is a very important tropical and subtropical that not only has good edible flavour, but also high ornamental value. However, the functions of trait genes in passion have been difficult to elucidate due difficulty stable genetic transmission fruit. The VIGS system for tobacco rattle virus (TRV) widely used number crops, no success reported In this study, we PePDS marker gene unravel system. use albino phenotype observation quantitative PCR detect expression showed PDS was...
The Chinese plum (Prunus salicina L.) is a fruit tree belonging to the Rosaceae family, native south-eastern China and widely cultivated throughout world. Fruit sugar metabolism color change an important physiological behavior that directly determines flavor aroma. Our study analyzed six stages of growth development using RNA-seq, yielding total 14,973 DEGs, further evaluation key DEGs revealed focus on metabolism, flavonoid biosynthesis, carotenoid photosynthesis. Using GO KEGG enrich...
Utilizing carbon quantum dots (CQDs) as biomaterials for delivering small substances has gained significant attention in recent research. However, the interactions and mechanisms of action CQDs on plants have received relatively little focus. Herein, we investigated transportation into various organs Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. via vessel system, leading to epigenetic inheritance Argonaute family genes. Our findings reveal that may interact with microRNAs (miRNAs), repression...
The color of the chili fruit is an important factor that determines quality chili, as red chilies are more popular among consumers. accumulation capsanthin main cause reddening fruit. Capsanthin metabolite in carotenoid metabolism, and its production level closely linked to expression genes for capsanthin/capsorubin synthase (CCS) hydroxylase (CrtZ). We reported first time synthesis was enhanced by using a geminivirus (Bean Yellow Dwarf Virus). By expressing heterologous β-carotenoid (CrtZ)...
