Glucosinolates are defense-related secondary metabolites found in Brassicaceae. When Brassicaceae come under attack, glucosinolates hydrolyzed into different forms of glucosinolate hydrolysis products (GHPs). Among the GHPs, isothiocyanates most comprehensively characterized defensive compounds, whereas functional study nitriles, another group GHP, is still limited. Therefore, this investigates whether 3-butenenitrile (3BN), a nitrile, can trigger signaling pathways involved regulation...
Domestication is the long and complex process underlying evolution of crops, in which artificial directional selection transformed wild progenitors into desired form, affecting genomic variation leaving traces at targeted loci. However, whether genes controlling important domestication traits follow same evolutionary pattern expected under standard selective sweep model remains unclear. With whole-genome resequencing mungbean (Vigna radiata), we investigated this issue by resolving its...
Abstract Domestication and improvement are two crucial processes underlying the evolution of crops. transformed wild plants into a utilizable form for humans; refined cultivars adapting to distinct environments local preferences. Using whole-genome re-sequencing Vigna radiata , we investigated demographic history compared genetic footprints domestication improvement. The Asian population migrated Australia at about 50 kya, happened in Asia 9 kya selecting non-shattering pods. key candidate...
Summary Excessive activation of effector-triggered immunity (ETI) in plants inhibits plant growth and activates cell death. ETI mediated by intracellular Toll/Interleukin-1 receptor/Resistance protein (TIR) nucleotide-binding leucine-rich-repeat receptors (NLRs) involves two partially redundant signalling nodes Arabidopsis, EDS1-PAD4-ADR1 EDS1-SAG101-NRG1. Genetic transcriptomic analyses show that primarily enhances the immune component abundance is critical for limiting pathogen growth,...
Abstract The composition of a species could change with demographic turnovers, where dominant populations quickly expanded and replaced others. However, whether such events have genetic basis remains to be investigated. Previous studies showed that Arabidopsis thaliana experienced significant turnover, “non-relicts” “relicts” throughout Eurasia. Here, we non-relicts smaller seeds, more seeds per fruit, higher germination rate, making them competitive over relicts. Using unique population...
