Food security has become the most challenging task in current scenario of population growth and future perspective everchanging environment. Cultivation management plants is now a major challenge for modern food production, which further compounded by lack common background among many disease control disciplines. All crop simultaneously engage with billions microbes from their surroundings, are harmless rather beneficial to plant as they promote provide protection opposition diseases....
Despite wealth of information generated on salt tolerance mechanism, its basics still remain elusive. Thus, there is a need continued effort to understand the mechanism using suitable biotechnological techniques and test plants (species) enable development tolerant cultivars interest. Therefore, present study was undertaken generate stress responsive genes in natural halophyte, Suaeda maritima, PCR-based suppression subtractive hybridization (PCR-SSH) technique. Forward reverse SSH cDNA...
The effects of NaCl on the H2O2 content and activities catalase (CAT) superoxide dismutase (SOD) were studied in diverse group plants, such as a unicellular alga, Chlorella sp., an aquatic macrophyte, Najas graminea, mangrove plant, Suaeda maritima, all showing high tolerance to NaCl. Significant accumulation was observed tested plants upon their exposure 255 mM activity both CAT SOD increased significantly response treatment. Growing presence also resulted synthesis new isoforms SOD.
Fusarium virguliforme causes the serious disease sudden death syndrome (SDS) in soybean. Host resistance to this pathogen is partial and encoded by a large number of quantitative trait loci, each conditioning small effects. Breeding SDS therefore challenging identification single-gene novel mechanisms becoming priority fight devastating fungal pathogen. In transcriptomic study we identified few putative soybean defense genes, expression which suppressed during F. infection. The...
Abstract Background Nonhost resistance (NHR) provides immunity to all members of a plant species against isolates microorganism that is pathogenic other species. Three Arabidopsis thaliana PEN (penetration deficient) genes, PEN1, 2 and 3 have been shown provide NHR the barley pathogen Blumeria graminis f. sp . hordei at prehaustorial level. pen1-1 mutant lacking PEN1 gene penetrated by hemibiotrophic oomycete Phytophthora sojae, causal organism root stem rot disease in soybean. We...
Nonhost resistance is defined as the immunity of a plant species to all nonadapted pathogen species. Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) ecotype Columbia-0 nonhost oomycete Phytophthora sojae and fungal Fusarium virguliforme that are pathogenic soybean (Glycine max). Previously, we reported generating pss1 mutation in pen1-1 genetic background well mapping characterization sojae-susceptible gene locus, PSS1. In this study, identified six candidate PSS1 genes by comparing single-nucleotide...
Abstract Background Molecular markers facilitate both genotype identification, essential for modern animal and plant breeding, the isolation of genes based on their map positions. Advancements in sequencing technology have made possible identification single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) any genomic regions. Here a sequence polymorphic (SBP) marker generating molecular targeted regions Arabidopsis is described. Results A ~3X genome coverage thaliana ecotype, Niederzenz (Nd-0) was obtained...
Fish waste biomasses are locally available resources which contain nutrients.Fermentation of the biomass produces slurries used for plankton production and plant/agri-nutri use.Bio-refinery fish material can be converted into value added biological products such as biofuels, industrial chemicals, animal feed, human food, neutraceuticals organic fertilizer, etc. processing could regarded a promising renewable resource biorefineries.Hydrolysis is aimed primarily at applications process.Low...
Sudden death syndrome (SDS) is caused by the fungal pathogen, Fusarium virguliforme, and a major threat to soybean production in North America. There are two components of this disease: (i) root necrosis (ii) foliar SDS. Root symptoms consist with vascular discoloration. Foliar SDS characterized interveinal chlorosis leaf necrosis, severe cases flower pod abscission. A toxin involved initiating has been identified. Nothing known about how develops. In order unravel mechanisms used pathogen...
This paper reports a highly economical and accessible approach to generate different discrete relative humidity conditions in spatially separated wells of modified multi-well plate for assay plant-pathogen interactions with good throughput. We demonstrated that gradient could be formed within few minutes maintained over period days inside the device. The device consisted freeway channel top layer, multiple compartmented bottom water source, drying agent source. combinational effects...
