Abstract Lychee is an exotic tropical fruit with a distinct flavor. The genome of cultivar ‘Feizixiao’ was assembled into 15 pseudochromosomes, totaling ~470 Mb. High heterozygosity (2.27%) resulted in two complete haplotypic assemblies. A total 13,517 allelic genes (42.4%) were differentially expressed diverse tissues. Analyses 72 resequenced lychee accessions revealed independent domestication events. extremely early maturing cultivars preferentially aligned to one haplotype domesticated...
Members of the microbiotas colonizing plant endophytic compartments and surrounding bulk rhizosphere soil play an important role in determining health. However, relative contributions microbiomes their mechanistic roles achieving disease suppression remain elusive. To disentangle importance different various inhibiting pathogen infection, we conducted a field experiment to track changes composition microbial communities root endophytes leaf endosphere collected from bananas planted on...
Cake fertilizer and dairy manure were used as experimental materials to carry out a 9-year (2012-2020) field experiment in the main rice production areas Yangtze River basin. Different fertilization modes (no fertilization, CK; chemical application alone, HY; reduced with application, RF; cake replacement of nitrogen fertilizer, CFR; DMR). Changes total yield, yield components, absorption nitrogen, soil pH, organic matter, bulk density under different treatments analyzed. The results show...
Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) is a type of commercially prevalent subtropical and tropical fruit. Since litchi has highly heterozygous genetic background long reproductive cycle, conventional breeding methods (such as hybridization) have limited ability to nurture new cultivars. Here, an efficient stable Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation embryogenic callus was established in 'Feizixiao' litchi. Transgenic materials were verified using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)...
Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) plays a key role in the postharvest pericarp browning of litchi fruit, but its underlying mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we cloned PPO gene (LcPPO, JF926153), and described expression patterns. The LcPPO cDNA sequence was 2120 bps length with an open reading frame (ORF) 1800 bps. ORF encoded polypeptide 599 amino acid residues, sharing high similarities other plant PPO. DNA contained 215-bp intron. After carrying out quantitative RT-PCR, proved that...
Nine new chromane-type meroterpenoids, including the rare nor-meroterpenoid sargasilol A (1) and eight meroditerpenoids sargasilols B–I (2–9), were isolated from a China Sea collection of brown alga Sargassum siliquastrum, together with six known analogues (10–15). The structures chromanes identified by extensive spectroscopic analysis comparison previously reported data. Compounds 1–3 6–15 exhibited inhibition against LPS-induced NO production in BV-2 microglial cells, 1, shorter carbon...
Tomatoes, an essential crop in controlled environments, benefit significantly from the careful use of nitrogen fertilizers, which are crucial for improving both yield and efficiency. Using a tomato pot experiment arranged facility greenhouse, five treatments were established as follows: control excluding application fertilizer (C), applications ammonium nitrate with mass ratios 0:100 (A0N100), 25:75 (A25N75), 50:50 (A50N50), 75:25 (A75N25), 100:0 (A100N0), to study effects different on...
Litchi, an important tropical fruit, is severely affected by anthracnose disease. However, the mechanism of its disease resistance response remains unknown, and resistant accession genetic resources resistance-related genes have not yet been identified. In this study, 82 accessions litchi were evaluated for to Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, 'Haiken 5' 'Nongmei 5 hao' identified as susceptible, respectively. Leaves from these two inoculated with C. gloeosporioides collected at 6 24 h use...
A series of oxovanadium(V) complexes containing amine pyridine(s) phenolate ligands [ONN] (2a-f) have been synthesized in high yields (68-83%) by reacting VO(O(n)Pr)3 with 1.0 equiv. the CH2Cl2. These were characterized (1)H, (13)C and (51)V NMR spectroscopy elemental analysis. X-ray structural analysis for 2a, 2c 2d revealed that these adopt a six-coordinate distorted octahedral geometry around vanadium center solid state. Upon treatment Et2AlCl CCl3COOEt, displayed catalytic activities...
D-arginine (D-Arg) can promote embryogenic callus (EC) proliferation and increase the rate of somatic embryo induction litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.), yet mechanism underlying processes is incompletely understood. To investigate mechanism, physiological responses polyamines (PAs) [putrescine (Put), spermidine (Spd), spermine (Spm)] were investigated for D-Arg-treated EC enzyme activity related to polyamine metabolism, plant endogenous hormones, polyamine- embryogenic-related genes explored....
The presence of soil-borne disease obstacles and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in soil leads to serious economic losses health risks humans. One area need attention is the evolution ARGs as pathogenic gradually develops, which introduces uncertainty dynamic ability conventional farming models predict ARGs. Here, we investigated variations tomato bacterial wilt accompanied by resistome metagenomic analysis soils over 13 seasons monoculture. results showed that abundance diversity mobile...
Litchi downy blight, caused by Peronophythora litchii, is one of the major diseases litchi and has severe economic losses. P. litchii unique ability to produce mildew like sporangiophores under artificial culture. The pathogen had been placed in a new family Peronophytophthoraceae some authors. In this study, whole transcriptome from mycelia, sporangia, zoospores was sequenced for first time. A set 23637 transcripts with an average length 1284 bp assembled. Using six open reading frame (ORF)...
Microbial contributions to natural soil suppressiveness have been reported for a range of plant pathogens and cropping systems. To disentangle the mechanisms underlying suppression banana Panama disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense tropical race 4 (Foc4), we used amplicon sequencing analyze composition microbiome from six separate locations, each comprised paired orchards, one potentially suppressive conducive disease. Functional potentials microbiomes site were further...
Postharvest pericarp browning restricts the shelf life of litchi fruit and was considered as main bottleneck industry. Browning is mainly due to enzymatic catalysis phenols form brown substances in pericarp. (-)-Epicatechin, (-)-gallocatechin, procyanidin B2 are substrates for enzyme catalysis. Previous works have reported that laccase activity correlated with browning, polymerizes vitro, but direct evidence absent. In this research, sequence gene LcLac analyzed, whose expression index at...
