Inflammatory factors and type I interferons (IFNs) are key components of host antiviral innate immune responses, which can be released from the pathogen-infected macrophages. African swine fever virus (ASFV) has developed various strategies to evade including alteration inflammatory responses IFNs production. However, molecular mechanism underlying inhibition production by ASFV-encoded proteins not been fully understood. Here we report that ASFV infection only induced low levels IL-1β in...
Cuticular waxes, long-chain hydrocarbon compounds, form the outermost layer of plant surfaces in most terrestrial plants. The presence cuticular waxes protects plants from water loss and other environmental stresses. Cloning characterization genes involved regulation, biosynthesis, extracellular transport onto surface epidermal cells have revealed molecular basis wax accumulation. However, intracellular trafficking synthesized to plasma membrane for cellular secretion is poorly understood....
Abstract Background The maize inbred line A188 is an attractive model for elucidation of gene function and improvement due to its high embryogenic capacity many contrasting traits the first reference genome, B73, other elite lines. lack a genome assembly limits use as functional studies. Results Here, we present chromosome-level using long reads optical maps. Comparison with B73 both whole-genome alignments read depths from sequencing identify approximately 1.1 Gb syntenic sequences well...
Abstract The plant cuticle is essential in defense against biotic and abiotic stresses. To systematically elucidate the genetic architecture of maize (Zea mays L.) cuticular wax metabolism, 2 wax–related traits, chlorophyll extraction rate (CER) water loss (WLR) 389 inbred lines, were investigated a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed using 1.25 million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). In total, 57 nonredundant quantitative trait loci (QTL) explaining 5.57% to 15.07%...
Summary Arabidopsis gain‐of‐resistance mutants, which show HR‐like lesion formation and SAR‐like constitutive defense responses, were used well as tools to unravel the plant mechanisms. We have identified a novel mutant, designated expresser of PR genes 30 ( cpr30 ), that exhibited dwarf morphology, resistance bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae dramatic induction defense‐response gene expression. The ‐conferred growth defect morphology responses are dependent on ENHANCED DISEASE...
Aerial plant surfaces are covered by epicuticular waxes that among other purposes serve to control water loss. Maize glossy mutants originally identified their "glossy" phenotypes exhibit alterations in the accumulation of waxes. By combining data from a BSR-Seq experiment and newly developed Seq-Walking technology, GRMZM2G118243 was as strong candidate for being glossy13 gene. The finding multiple EMS-induced alleles contain premature stop codons GRMZM2G118243, one knockout allele gl13,...
African swine fever (ASF), caused by virus (ASFV), is a highly contagious and acute hemorrhagic viral disease with high mortality, approaching 100% in domestic pigs. However, the relationship between pathogenicity immune evasion of ASFV not fully understood, which limits development safe effective ASF vaccines, specifically, live attenuated vaccines.
Drought stress presents a significant threat to the growth and development of maize. It is important study genes mechanisms that contribute drought tolerance. In this study, we identified ZmHDT103 (that encodes histone deacetylase) by conducting homologous sequence comparison found expression in maize seedlings responsive treatment with polyethylene glycol (PEG). We utilized CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology generate three distinct knockout lines obtained ChinaMU mutant gene. Under...
Summary Full‐length cDNAs are very important for genome annotation and functional analysis of genes. The number full‐length from maize ( Zea mays L.) remains limited. Here we report the construction a enriched cDNA library osmotically stressed seedlings by using modified CAP trapper method. From this library, 2073 (accession numbers DQ244142 – DQ246214 ) were collected further analyzed sequencing both 5′‐ 3′‐ends. A total 1728 (83.4%) sequences did not match known mRNA in GenBank database...
Flowering time is a critical determinant of regional adaptation for crops and has strong effects on crop yields. Here, we report that TaZIM-A1, an atypical GATA-like transcription factor, negative regulator flowering in wheat. TaZIM-A1 possessed weak transcriptional repression activity, with its CCT domain functioning as the major inhibitory region. expression exhibited typical circadian oscillation pattern under various light regimes. Overexpression caused delay decrease thousand-kernel...
Summary Epicuticular waxes provide a hydrophobic barrier that protects land plants from environmental stresses. To elucidate the molecular functions of maize glossy mutants reduce accumulation epicuticular waxes, eight non‐allelic were subjected to transcriptomic comparisons with their respective wild‐type siblings. Transcriptomic identified 2279 differentially expressed ( DE ) genes. Other genes tended be down‐regulated in mutants; by contrast stress‐responsive pathways induced mutants....
Abstract Precision modulation of gut microbiota requires elucidation the relation between dietary fiber intake and microbe dynamics. However, current studies on this aspect are few due to many technical limitations. Here, we used Caenorhabditis elegans minimize complicated host–microbial factors find chemical structures The Allium schoenoprasum polysaccharide ( As sP) structure was elucidated as complex against simple inulin. In vitro bacterial growth genome analysis indicated that sP...
Salt stress represents an increasing threat to crop growth and yield in saline soil. In this study, we identified a maize calcineurin B-like protein-interacting protein kinase (CIPK), ZmCIPK21, which was primarily localized the cytoplasm nucleus of cells displayed enhanced expression under salt stress. Over-expression ZmCIPK21 wild-type Arabidopsis plants increased their tolerance salt, as supported by longer root lengths improved growth. The downstream stress-response genes, including...
African swine fever (ASF) is an acute and hemorrhagic infectious disease caused by virus (ASFV), which listed as animal epidemic that must be reported The World Organization for Animal Health causes serious economic losses to China even the whole world. Currently, entry mechanism of ASFV not fully understood. Especially in early stages entry, host factors required have yet been identified characterized. In this study, we demonstrated externalized phosphatidylserine (PS) on envelope...
