Abstract Melatonin improves plant resistance to multiple stresses by participating in the biosynthesis of metabolites. Flavonoids are an important family secondary metabolites and widely recognized be involved resistance; however, crosstalk between melatonin flavonoid is largely unknown. We found that pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan) salt, drought, heat were significantly enhanced pre-treatment with melatonin. Combined transcriptome LC-ESI-MS/MS metabolomics analyses showed induced enrichment...
For non-model plants, functional characterization of genes is still hampered by lack efficient stable transformation procedures. Here, we report a simple, fast and technique with Agrobacterium rhizogenes for generating transgenic roots in living plants to facilitate studies vivo. We showed that injection A. into stems various plant species lead root generation, which can sustain growth after the original, non-transgenic were cut off. A system was established pigeon pea, major woody food...
Flavonoids and lignin are valuable phytochemicals derived from plant secondary metabolism play important roles in regulating multiple developmental processes signaling networks. The biosynthetic pathways leading to flavonoids known be originated the general phenylpropanoid pathway. Key regulators controlling pathway structural genes have been isolated many species. However, cooperative regulations of flavonoid biosynthesis resulting effects on carbon flow not systematically summarized...
SUMMARY Calcineurin B‐like (CBL)‐interacting protein kinases (CIPKs) play a central role in Ca 2+ signalling and promote drought tolerance plants. The CIPK gene family pigeon pea ( Cajanus cajan L.), major food crop affected by drought, has not previously been characterised. Here, we identified 28 genes the genome. Five CcCIPK were strongly upregulated roots upon treatment selected for further characterisation. Overexpression of CcCIPK13 CcCIPK14 increased survival rates two‐ to three‐fold...
Abstract Sorbitol is an important primary metabolite that serves as both a carbon source and signal to pathogens. The leaf diseases caused by Alternata alternata are particularly serious in crabapple ( Malus micromalus ). Here, we found sorbitol can enhance the resistance of A. R1 increasing content flavonoid catechin. Nanomaterials emerging technology tool efficiently deliver lncRNA target cells. nanoencapsulated lncRNA809 (SPc/lncRNA809) exhibits significant R1strain. To elucidate effect...
In the present study, anti-IBV (infectious bronchitis virus) activity of 1,8-cineole was studied by MTT assay, as well docking and molecular dynamic (MD) simulations. The CC50 above 10 mM. And maximum noncytotoxic concentration (TD0) determined to be 3.90 ± 0.22 mM, which much higher than that ribavirin (0.78 0.15 mM). could inhibit IBV with an IC(50) 0.61 assay showed inhibition 1, 8-cineole appears occur moderately before entering cell but strongly after penetration virus into cell. silico...
Abstract Introduction miRNAs are very important regulators in biological processes such as development, cellular differentiation, and carcinogenesis. Given the role of tumorigenesis it is worth investigating whether some play roles anticancer mechanism flavonoids. However, a has not yet been reported. We previously selected promising agent 3,6-dihydroxyflavone (3,6-DHF) pharmacodynamic experiments, which may serve leading compound for developing more potent drugs or chemopreventive...
Summary Aluminium (Al) toxicity decreases crop production in acid soils general, but many crops have evolved complex mechanisms to resist it. However, our current understanding of how plants cope with Al stress and perform resistance is still at the initial stage. In this study, citrate transporter CcMATE35 was identified be involved response. The release increased substantially over‐expression (OE) lines under stress, indicating enhanced resistance. It demonstrated that transcription factor...
In the CIPK family, CBL-interacting protein kinases have shown crucial roles in hormone signaling transduction, and response to abiotic stress plant developmental processes. The family is characterized by conserved NAF/FISL (Asn-Ala-Phe) PPI (protein-phosphatase interaction) domains C-terminus. However, little data has been reported about apple. A total of 34 MdCIPK genes were identified from apple genome this study later divided into two groups according domains, gene structure chromosomal...
Multidrug and Toxic Compound Extrusion (MATEs) is one of the characteristic transporter families, which plays a key role in detoxication endogenous secondary metabolites exogenous agents both animal plant cells. In this study, we identified total 67 MATE genes (CcMATEs) from pigeonpea genome, on performed bioinformatics analysis group them by phylogenetic analysis. Finally, eight represented CcMATE were selected for further qRT-PCR tissue specificity response to metal stress pigeonpea. The...
Abstract Flavonoids are secondary metabolites that play important roles in fruit and vegetable development. Here, we examined the function of hyperoside, a unique flavonoid okra (Abelmoschus esculentus), known to promote both flowering seed set. We showed exogenous application hyperoside significantly improved pollen germination rate tube growth by almost 50%, resulting 42.7% increase set rate. Of several genes induced treatment, AeUF3GaT1, which encodes an enzyme catalyzes last step...
The flowers of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) open and wilt within only a few hours, this is accompanied by accumulation hyperoside, secondary metabolite in the flavonoid pathway. However, little known about relationship between flavonoids flowering. Here, we found that exogenous application hyperoside extended duration full-blooming period more than 3-fold, was 14.7-fold increase expression CALCIUM-DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASE6 (AeCDPK6). Gene profiling indicated transcription factor AeMYB30...
