In tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), as in other plants, the immunity hormone jasmonate (JA) triggers genome-wide transcriptional changes response to pathogen and insect attack. These are largely regulated by basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor MYC2. The function of MYC2 depends on its physical interaction with MED25 subunit Mediator coactivator complex. Although much has been learned about MYC2-dependent activation JA-responsive genes, relatively less studied is termination...
Seedling emergence is critical for food security. It requires rapid hypocotyl elongation and apical hook formation, both of which are mediated by regulated cell expansion. How these events coordinated in etiolated seedlings unclear. Here, we show that biphasic control expansion the phytohormone auxin underlies this process. Shortly after germination, high levels restrain elongation. This provides a temporal window involving gravity-induced maximum on eventual concave side hook. induces...
Fruit softening indicated by firmness determines the texture, transportability, and shelf life of tomato products. However, regulatory mechanism underlying formation in fruit is poorly understood. Here, we report role SlBES1, an essential component brassinosteroid hormone signaling, softening. We found that SlBES1 promotes during ripening postharvest storage. RNA-seq analysis suggested PMEU1, which encodes a pectin methylesterase, might participate SlBES1-mediated Biochemical...
The 12-oxo-phytodienoic acid reductases (OPRs), which belong to the old yellow enzyme (OYE) family, are flavin mononucleotide (FMN)-dependent oxidoreductases with critical functions in plants. Despite clear characteristics of growth and development, as well defense responses Arabidopsis, tomato, rice, maize, potential roles OPRs wheat not fully understood. Here, forty-eight putative OPR genes were found classified into five subfamilies, 6 sub. I, 4 II, 33 III, 3 IV, 2 V. Similar gene...
Cotesia ruficrus is a gregarious larval endoparasitoid of many important agricultural pest moths, such as the fall armyworm, northern armyworm and rice leaffolder. While eight genomes had been reported, high-quality genomic data C. has yet to be performed. This study presents chromosome-scale genome assembly ruficrus, utilizing both PacBio HiFi-reads Hi-C reads. The size about 185.3 Mb harboring 10 chromosomes, 209 unanchored scaffolds with scaffold N50 length 15.81 Mb. anchored rate...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to be critical components in plant immunity. MicroRNA398 (miR398) is a highly conserved miRNA all land plants and plays crucial roles diverse biotic stress responses. However, the role of miR398 has not yet characterized tomato resistance against Botrytis cinerea. In this report, transcript levels sly-miR398b were strongly decreased B. cinerea-infected leaves overexpression resulted enhanced susceptibility. The attenuated expression cytosol Cu/Zn-SOD...
Mitochondria are a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and also the target cellular ROS. ROS damage to mitochondria leads dysfunction that further enhances production mitochondrial This feed-forward vicious cycle between induces cell death. Within few minutes radiation exposure, NADPH oxidase is activated elevate level. Activated might induce this possible mechanism for cancer death induced by heavy ion irradiation. We found after 4 Gy 12C6+ HepG2 cells, membrane subunit gp91phox...
Diallyl disulfide (DADS), extracted from crushed garlic by steam-distillation, has been reported to provide the anticancer activity in several cancer types. However, effect of DADS on high-LET carbon beams - induced cell death remains unknown. Therefore, we used human cervical cells elucidate molecular effects this diallyl sulfide. Radiotherapy mainstay treatment, especially advanced and there is still space improve radiosensitivity reduce radiation dosage. In study, found that evoked beam...
We describe a versatile and convenient approach to achieve fluorescence modulation by the preparation of composite nanoparticles (CNPs), based on photochromic 5-methoxy-1,3,3-trimethyl-9'-hydroxyspiroindolinenaphthoxazine (SO), fluorescent 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-methyl-6-(p-dimethyl-aminostyryl)-4H-pyran (DCM), emissive-assistant 1,3-bis(pyrene) propane (BPP) molecules, employing doping techniques. The mechanism switch is intermolecular energy transfer as supported both steady-state...
Understanding the molecular mechanisms of cadmium (Cd) tolerance and accumulation in plants is important to address Cd pollution. In present study, we performed comparative transcriptome analysis identify response processes roots two turnip landraces, KTRG-B14 (high-Cd accumulation) KTRG-B36 (low-Cd accumulation). Two common enhanced processes, glutathione metabolism antioxidant system, were identified both landraces. However, some differential are likely employed by namely, several genes...
Abstract As a climbing organ, the tendril undergoes rapid elongation to increase its length locate support within short growth time. However, molecular mechanism underlying this observation is poorly understood. Here, development was divided into 4 stages in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) along with growth. Phenotypic observations and section analyses showed that of primarily happened during stage 3 mainly due cell expansion. RNA-seq analysis PACLOBUTRAZOL-RESISTANCE4 (CsPRE4) highly...
Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is one of the main edible legume vegetables in China, and it can improve spleen stomach function. A polysaccharide component (VUP80-3) has been isolated from V. unguiculata this study. The average molecular weight VUP80-3 6.43 × 104 Da, monosaccharide group glucose. mass ratio groups was glucose:galactose:arabinose:rhamnose:xylose:mannose:fucose = 152.36:24.50:16.53:8.13:1.26:0.97:0.82. NMR analysis showed that →4)-α-D-Galp (1→ →4)-α-D-Glcp(1→ chain...
