Cucurbitacins are triterpenoids that confer a bitter taste in cucurbits such as cucumber, melon, watermelon, squash, and pumpkin. These compounds discourage most pests on the plant have also been shown to antitumor properties. With genomics biochemistry, we identified nine cucumber genes pathway for biosynthesis of cucurbitacin C elucidated four catalytic steps. We discovered transcription factors Bl ( Bitter leaf ) Bt fruit regulate this leaves fruits, respectively. Traces genomic...
Abstract Multiple cotton genomes (diploid and tetraploid) have been assembled. However, genomic variations between cultivars of allotetraploid upland ( Gossypium hirsutum L.), the most widely planted species in world, remain unexplored. Here, we use single-molecule long read Hi-C sequencing technologies to assemble two TM-1 zhongmiansuo24 (ZM24). Comparisons among ZM24 assemblies diploid ancestors reveal a large amount genetic variations. Among them, top three longest structural are located...
The NAR2 protein of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has no known transport activity yet it is required for high-affinity nitrate uptake. Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) possesses two genes, AtNRT3.1 and AtNRT3.2, that are similar to the C. gene. accounts greater than 99% NRT3 mRNA induced 6-fold by nitrate. AtNRT3.2 was expressed constitutively at a very low level did not compensate loss in Atnrt3.1 mutants. Nitrate uptake roots induction gene expression were analyzed T-DNA mutants, Atnrt3.1-1...
Branching determines cotton architecture and production, but the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we report that miR164-GhCUC2 (CUP-SHAPED COTYLEDON2) module regulates lateral shoot development in Arabidopsis. We generated OE-GhCUC2m (overexpression GhCUC2m) STTM164 (short tandem target mimic RNA of miR164) lines heterologous expression for gh-miR164, GhCUC2 GhCUC2m Arabidopsis to study controlling branching. overexpression resulted a short-branch phenotype similar...
Cotton (Gossypium spp.) is one of the most important fiber crops worldwide. In last two decades, transgenesis and genome editing have played roles in cotton improvement. However, genotype dependence key bottlenecks generating transgenic gene-edited plants through either particle bombardment or Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Here, we developed a shoot apical meristem (SAM) cell-mediated transformation system (SAMT) that allowed recalcitrant genotypes including widely grown upland...

MicroRNA394 (miR394) and its target gene LEAF CURLING RESPONSIVENESS (LCR) are known to mediate plant growth development. However, whether miR394 LCR regulate adaptation low temperature has not been investigated. Here, we showed that miR394a overexpressing (35S::MIR394a) plants a loss of function lcr mutant exhibited more tolerance cold stress (4 − 11 °C), whereas (35S::m5LCR) displayed hypersensitive phenotype as compared wild-type. Both 35S::MIR394a accumulated proline total soluble sugars...
The most important aroma-active compounds of two types chocolate and cocoa liquor used for their production were analysed by gas chromatography-olfactometry-mass spectrometry (GC-O-MS) aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA). Furthermore, the relationship between odorants sensory perception was measured quantitative analysis, evaluation correlation analysis. In addition, some chemicals added to original dark or milk validate roles in property chocolate.A total 32 major identified with flavour...
Spines or trichomes on the fruit of cucumbers enhance their commercial value in China. In addition, glabrous mutants exhibit resistance to aphids and therefore use by growers can reduce pesticide residues. Previous studies have reported two mutant plants containing genes, csgl1 csgl2. present study, a new mutant, NCG157, was identified showing gene interaction effect with This showed character stems, leaves, tendrils, receptacles ovaries, there were no spines tumors surface. Inheritance...
Abstract Fungal pathogens secrete effector proteins that regulate host immunity and can suppress basal defence mechanisms against colonization in plants. Verticillium dahliae is a widespread destructive soilborne fungus cause vascular wilt disease reduces plant yields. However, little currently known about how the effectors secreted by V . function. In this study, we analysed identified 34 candidate secretome found Vd424Y , glycoside hydrolase family 11 protein, was highly upregulated during...
Abstract Background Verticillium wilt is one of the most devasting diseases for many plants, leading to global economic loss. Cotton known be vulnerable its fungal pathogen, dahliae , yet related genetic mechanism remains unknown. Results By genome-wide association studies 419 accessions upland cotton, Gossypium hirsutum we identify ten loci that are associated with resistance against wilt. Among these loci, SHZDI1 / SHZDP2 AYDP1 from chromosome A10 located on a fragment introgressed...
Akkermansia muciniphila is considered a next-generation probiotic because of its immense potential to regulate disorders. We isolated 31 strains A. from feces or breast milk healthy people. After genome sequencing, assembly, and analysis, we selected six (AM01 AM06) for further exploration. first analyzed their general characteristics, including morphological description, growth physiological biochemical then confirmed genetic GC content, putative virulence factors, antibiotic resistance...
There have been some reports in the literature of model gastric digestion systems to mimic dynamic physiological processes within gastrointestinal tract. However, such devices often require specification many control parameters making routine tests unfeasible. This paper introduces a simple vitro device, comprising water-jacketed glass vessel into which spherical Teflon probe variable diameter can be inserted. The is controlled by texture analyser simulate kinetics food process. Using this...
Taxus species are well-known for paclitaxel, which exhibits antitumor activities and is used treating various cancers. Although most widespread in many areas, few studies have characterized the variation metabolism among different species. Using an integrated approach involving 'tandem mass tag' labeling liquid chromatography–tandem spectrometry (HPLC–MS), proteomes of T. media mairei were investigated 4078 proteins quantified. Screening classification differentially expressed revealed...
The volatile constituents of cocoa liquor and the differences between liquors from different origins were studied. Direct solvent extraction-solvent assisted flavor evaporation gas chromatography-olfactrometry-mass spectrometry in conjunction with aroma extract dilution analysis used to identify key compounds five liquors. There significant specific areas origins. Then, purge trap method was gathering aroma-active components origins, one internal standard during this process for further...
Somatic embryo development (SED) in upland cotton shows low frequencies of maturation and plantlet regeneration. Progress increasing the regeneration rate has been limited. Here a global analysis proteome dynamics between globular cotyledonary embryos was performed using isobaric tags for relative absolute quantitation to explore mechanisms underlying SED. Of 6318 proteins identified by mass spectrometric analysis, 102 were significantly up-regulated 107 down-regulated embryos. The...
Abstract: Inhibition of the nucleotide pool sanitizing enzyme MTH1 causes extensive oxidative DNA damages and apoptosis in cancer cells hence may be used as an anticancer strategy. As natural products have been a rich source medicinal chemicals, present study, we MTH1-catalyzed enzymatic reaction high-throughput vitro screening assay to search for compounds capable inhibiting MTH1. Echinacoside, compound derived from plants Cistanche Echinacea , effectively inhibited catalytic activity...
