Ethylene plays diverse roles in plant growth, development and stress responses. However, the of ethylene signaling immune responses remain largely unknown. In this study, we showed that blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae infection activated biosynthesis rice. Resistant rice cultivars accumulated higher levels than susceptible ones. components OsEIN2 downstream transcription factor OsEIL1 positively regulated disease resistance. Mutation led to enhanced susceptibility. Whole-genome analysis...
To defend against pathogens, plants have developed complex immune systems, including plasma membrane receptors that recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns, such as chitin from fungal cell walls, and mount a defense response. Here, we identify chitinase, MoChia1 (Magnaporthe oryzae chitinase 1), secreted by M. oryzae, pathogen of rice (Oryza sativa). can trigger plant responses, expression under an inducible promoter in enhances its resistance to is functional required for growth...
Plant surface-localized pathogen recognition receptors (PRRs) perceive conserved microbial features, termed pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), resulting in disease resistance. PAMP perception leads to calcium influx, MAPK activation, a burst of reactive oxygen species (ROS) mediated by RbohD, accumulation the defense hormone salicylic acid (SA), and callose deposition. Lectin receptor-like kinases (LecRKs) belong specific PRR family are important players plant innate immunity....
Abstract Seamounts are critical marine biodiversity hot spots, while the metabolic activity of their microbial community remains largely unknown. In this study, we investigated diversity and free-living particle-attached microorganisms in surface, middle, bottom layers seawater at Zhenbei seamount South China Sea using omics approaches including 16S rRNA/16S rDNA ratio analysis. Over 20 phyla were detected with Proteobacteria, Actinobacteriota, Cyanobacteria, Bacteroidota, Thaumarchaeota,...
Impact statement Spindle‐shaped viruses exclusively infect archaea. Fuselloviruses represent a large group of spindle‐shaped and hyperthermophilic archaea the order Sulfolobales . Although first fusellovirus was identified nearly 40 years ago, mechanism host infection by these remains poorly understood. Here, we show that SSV19, isolated from hot spring in Philippines, is capable hydrolyzing cell surface glycan as heptasaccharide chain QuiS 1 Hex 4 HexNAc 2 Our findings provide significant...
Archaea, often thriving in extreme habitats, are believed to have evolved efficient DNA repair pathways cope with constant insults their genomes. However, how these organisms double-strand breaks (DSBs), the most lethal lesions, remains unclear. Here, we show that replicative primase consisting of catalytic subunit PriS and noncatalytic subunits PriL PriX from hyperthermophilic archaeon Saccharolobus islandicus is involved DSB repair. We overproduction or knockdown increases decreases,...
Frogeye leaf spot, caused by Cercospora sojina Hara, is a common disease of soybean in most soybean-growing countries the world. In this study, we report high-quality genome sequence C. Single Molecule Real-Time sequencing method. The 40.8-Mb encodes 11,655 predicated genes, and 8,474 genes are revealed RNA sequencing. contains large numbers gene clusters that involved synthesis secondary metabolites, including mycotoxins pigments. However, much less carbohydrate-binding module protein...
Abstract Phase separation serves an important role in the three-dimensional chromosome organization and remodeling eukaryotes. Whether this process is involved archaeal unknown. Here we demonstrate that DNA condensing protein1 (aDCP1) from hyperthermophilic crenarchaeon Sulfolobus islandicus able to bridge efficiently form large protein-DNA condensates with a droplet- or gel-like morphology vitro . Within condensates, aDCP1 exhibits fast dynamic while appears solid-like state. At...
