The tryptophan (Trp)-derived plant secondary metabolites, including camalexin, 4-hydroxy-indole-3-carbonylnitrile, and indolic glucosinolate (IGS), show broad-spectrum antifungal activity. However, the distinct regulations of these metabolic pathways among different species in response to fungus infection are rarely studied. In this study, our results revealed that WRKY33 directly regulates IGS biosynthesis, notably production 4-methoxyindole-3-ylmethyl (4MI3G), conferring resistance...
is a frequently consumed leafy vegetable. However, research on its nutritional components limited. This study aimed to explore the variation in and antioxidant capacity of different cultivars organs
The carotenoid isomerase gene (BoaCRTISO) of Chinese kale was targeted and edited using the CRISPR/Cas9 system in present study. results showed a high mutation rate (81.25%), 13 crtiso mutants were obtained. Only two types mutations, insertions replacements, found. Both total individual chlorophyll concentrations biallelic homozygous reduced, levels declined by 11.89-36.33%. color changed from green to yellow, likely reflecting reduction color-masking effect on carotenoids. expression most...
In China, cadmium (Cd) stress has a significant role in limiting the development and productivity of purple flowering stalks (Brassica campestris var. purpuraria). Exogenous selenium supplementation been demonstrated earlier research to mitigate effects Cd range plant species; nevertheless, physiological molecular processes by which exogenous increases vegetable shoots’ resistance remain unclear. Purple purpuraria) were chosen as study subject examine treatment with sodium selenite (Na2SeO3)...
Melatonin, a pleiotropic small molecule, is employed in horticultural crops to delay senescence and preserve postharvest quality. In this study, 100 µM melatonin treatment delayed decline the color difference index h* a*, maintaining content of chlorophyll carotenoids, thereby delaying yellowing Chinese kale. Transcriptome analysis unequivocally validates melatonin’s efficacy leaf kale stored at 20 °C. Following three-day storage period, group exhibited 1637 differentially expressed genes...
The main differences of health-promoting compounds and antioxidant activity whole individual edible parts baby mustard were demonstrated.
Self-incompatibility (SI) is under genetic control and prevents inbreeding depression in angiosperms. SI mechanisms are quite complicated still poorly understood many plants. Tea (Camellia sinensis L.) belonging to the family of Theaceae, exhibits high levels heterozygosity. Uncovering molecular basis tea plant may enhance breeding simplify genomics research for whole family. The growth pollen tubes following selfing crossing was observed using fluorescence microscopy. Self-pollen grew...
The ratio of dihydroxylated to trihydroxylated catechins (RDTC) is an important indicator tea quality and biochemical marker for the study genetic diversity. It reported be under control but underlying mechanism not well understood. Flavonoid 3′-hydroxylase (F3′H) flavonoid 3′,5′-hydroxylase (F3′5′H) are key enzymes involved in formation catechins. transcriptome HPLC analysis samples from Longjing43 Zhonghuang2 shading treatment were performed assess F3′H F3′5′H genes that might affect RDTC....
Theanine, a unique amino acid in Camellia sinensis, accounts for more than 50% of total free acids tea and has significant contribution to the quality green tea. Previous research indicated that theanine is synthesized from glutamic (Glu) ethylamine mainly roots, accumulation depends on availability which derived alanine (Ala) decarboxylation catalyzed by decarboxylase (AlaDC). However, specific gene encoding AlaDC protein remains be discovered plants or other species. To explore plants,...
Chinese kale (Brassica oleracea var. alboglabra) has high nutritional value. This study investigated the contents of glucosinolates, antioxidants (chlorophylls, carotenoids, vitamin C, and total phenolics), antioxidant capacity in five organs from six varieties kale. The highest concentrations individual glucosinolates were roots inflorescences, respectively. levels inflorescences leaves. Plant played a predominant role glucosinolate accumulation. Glucoiberin, glucoraphanin, glucobrassicin,...
Brassinazole resistant 1 (BZR1), a brassinosteroid (BR) signaling component, plays pivotal role in regulating numerous specific developmental processes. Our study demonstrated that exogenous treatment with 2,4-epibrassinolide (EBR) significantly enhanced the accumulation of carotenoids and chlorophylls Chinese kale (Brassica oleracea var. alboglabra). The underlying mechanism was deciphered through yeast one-hybrid (Y1H) dual-luciferase (LUC) assays, whereby BoaBZR1.1 directly interacts...
In this study, we analyzed the nutritional components and antioxidant capacity of 17 leaf mustard cultivars, including 13 cultivars from Leshan, 2 Ya’an, Yibin. Significant variations were observed among in terms their composition properties. Our findings revealed that cultivar LS12 exhibited highest levels total chlorophyll, anthocyanidin, flavonoids, phenolics, ferric-reducing power (FRAP). Cultivar YB2 showed higher contents soluble sugar, protein, ABTS capacity, glucosinolates. On a...
Precise aboveground biomass (AGB) estimation of forests is crucial for sustainable carbon management and ecological monitoring. Traditional methods, such as destructive sampling, field measurements Diameter at Breast Height with height (DBH H), optical remote sensing imagery, often fall short in capturing detailed spatial heterogeneity AGB are labor-intensive. Recent advancements technologies, predominantly Light Detection Ranging (LiDAR), offer potential improvements accurate Nonetheless,...
Abstract Background Prostate cancer patients have a significantly higher risk of suicide compared to the general population. This study aimed develop nomogram for identifying high-risk and providing empirical evidence guide effective intervention strategies. Methods We analyzed data from 176,730 prostate diagnosed between 2004 2021, sourced Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results (SEER) database. Patients were randomly allocated training ( n = 123,711) validation 53,019) cohorts in 7:3...
Drought stress is a key factor limiting the growth and tuber yield of potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.). Brassinosteroids (BRs) have been shown to alleviate drought in several plant species; however, little known about physiological molecular mechanisms by which BRs enhance resistance potatoes. Here, we characterized changes physiology transcriptome tetraploid potato variety 'Xuanshu-2' response after 24-epibrassinolide (EBR) pretreatment. The abscisic acid (ABA) content, photosynthetic...
