The aim of this research was to determine the chemical composition essential oil Acorus calamus rhizomes, its insecticidal activity against booklouse, (Liposcelis bostrychophila) and isolate any constituents from oil. A. rhizomes obtained by hydrodistillation analyzed GC-FID GC-MS. A total 32 components identified principal compounds in were determined be α-asarone (50.09%), (E)-methylisoeugenol (14.01%), methyleugenol (8.59%), followed β-asarone (3.51%), α-cedrene (3.09%) camphor (2.42%)....
Rare-allele variants are important for crop improvement because they can be linked to traits. However, genome-wide distribution and annotation of rare-allele have not been reported. We analyzed sequencing data from 1556 soybean accessions found 6,533,419 in Glycine max 941,274 soja populations. Although the total number was 20% less G. than soja, six times that soja. Among max, 19.16% were novel mutations did exist Domestication artificial selection only reduced overall genetic diversity but...
Yellowhorn (Xanthoceras sorbifolium) is a species of the Sapindaceae family native to China and an oil tree that can withstand cold drought conditions. A pseudomolecule-level genome assembly for this will not only contribute understanding evolution its genes chromosomes but also bring yellowhorn breeding into genomic era.
In this study, dynamic changes in ginsenoside content and ratios the Panax ginseng root were investigated with different cultivation ages collection months, using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Our data indicate that Ro malonyl ginsenosides dependent on age (p < 0.05); especially, varied from 0.16 to 4.91 mg/g, a difference about 30-fold. Further, we found samples of 5 6-year-old P. had high Ro/Re ratio, whereas two three-year-old possessed low ratio. Thus, ratio can be...
Brown blight disease caused by Colletotrichum species is a common and serious foliar of tea (Camellia sinensis). Fungal isolates from several plantations causing typical brown symptoms were identified as belonging to the acutatum complex gloeosporioides based on morphological characteristics well DNA analysis internal transcribed spacer (ITS) glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). acutatum, new causal agent associated with C. sinensis, showed high phenotypic genotypic diversity...
During the screening programme for new agrochemicals from Chinese medicinal herbs and local wild plants, essential oil of dried bulbs Allium macrostemon Bunge (Liliaceae) was found to possess larvicidal activity against mosquitoes. The aim this research determine its major constituent compounds larvae Culicidae mosquito, Aedes albopictus. Essential A. obtained by hydrodistillation analyzed gas chromatography (GC) chromaotography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). two constituents were evaluated,...
A new pyrrolidine alkaloid named (Z)-3-(4-hydroxybenzylidene)-4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one was isolated from the ethanol extract of root barks Orixa japonica. The structure elucidated on basis NMR and MS analysis. compound exhibited larvicidal activity against fourth instar larvae Aedes aegypti (LC50 = 232.09 μg/mL), Anopheles sinensis 49.91 Culex pipiens pallens 161.10 μg/mL). also possessed nematicidal Bursaphelenchus xylophilus 391.50 μg/mL) Meloidogynein congnita 134.51...
Vibrio cholerae is the causative agent of cholera, a dehydrating diarrheal disease. This Gram-negative pathogen able to modulate its gene expression in order combat stresses encountered both aquatic and host environments, including stress posed by reactive oxygen species (ROS). In further understanding V. cholerae's transcriptional response ROS, we performed an RNA sequencing analysis determine profile when exposed hydrogen hydroperoxide. Of 135 differentially expressed genes, VC0139 was...
Abstract WRKY transcription factors are widely distributed in higher plants and play important roles many biological processes, including stress resistance. The recently published genome sequence of yellowhorn, an oil tree with robust resistance to cold, drought, heat, salt alkali, provides excellent opportunity identify characterize the entire yellowhorn protein family a basis for study abiotic gene forest species. In present comprehensive analysis 65 genes were identified defined based on...
Abstract Objectives Soybean is an important feed and oil crop in the world due to its high protein content. China has a collection of more than 43,000 soybean germplasm resources, which provides rich genetic diversity for breeding. However, poses great challenges improvement soybean. This study reports on de novo genome assembly HJ117, variety with content 52.99%. These data will prove be valuable resources further quality research, aid elucidation regulatory mechanisms underlying Data...
Bacterial pathogens display versatile gene expression to adapt changing surroundings. For example, Vibrio cholerae, the causative agent of cholera, utilizes distinct genetic programs combat reactive oxygen species (ROS) in aquatic environments or during host infection. We previously reported that virulence activator AphB V. cholerae is involved ROS resistance. Here by performing a screen, we show represses resistance ohrA, which also repressed another regulator, OhrR. Reduced forms both and...
Drought stress can dramatically impair woody plant growth and restrict the geographical distribution of many tree species. To better understand dynamics between response mechanism Cupressus gigantea to drought post-drought recovery, a comparative analysis was performed, relying on physiological measurements, RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) proteins. In this study, analyses revealed that photosynthesis seriously inhibited, while osmolyte contents,...
Mutations in the activity-dependent transcription factor MEF2C have been associated with several neuropsychiatric disorders. Among these, autism spectrum disorder (ASD)-related behavioral deficits are manifested. Multiple animal models that harbor mutations Mef2c provided compelling evidence is indeed an ASD gene. However, studies mice germline or global brain knock-out of limited their ability to identify precise neural substrates and cell types required for expression -mediated behaviors....
Abstract As essential organs of reproduction in angiosperms, flowers, and the genetic mechanisms their development have been well characterized many plant species but not woody tree yellowhorn (Xanthoceras sorbifolium). Here, we focused on double flower phenotype yellowhorn, which has high ornamental value. We found a candidate C-class gene, AGAMOUS1 (XsAG1), through Bulked Segregant Analysis (BSA) sequencing genetics analysis with Long Interpersed Nuclear Elements 1 (LINE1) transposable...
Stimulation of presynaptic nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) increases the frequency miniature excitatory synaptic activity (mEPSCs) to a point where they can promote cell firing in hippocampal CA3 neurons. We have evaluated whether nicotine regulation be extended inhibitory transmission onto striatal medium spiny projection neurons (MSNs) acute brain slices. Bath application micromolar typically induced 12-fold currents (mIPSCs). Little effect was observed on amplitude mIPSCs or...
RNA editing plays a key role in organelle gene expression. Little is known about how factors influence soybean plant development. Here, we report the isolation and characterization of yl (yellow leaf) mutant. The plants showed decreased chlorophyll accumulation, lower PS II activity, an impaired net photosynthesis rate, altered chloroplast ultrastructure. Fine mapping YL uncovered point mutation Glyma.20G187000, which encodes chloroplast-localized protein homologous to Arabidopsis thaliana...
Corn straw is considered a renewable biomass energy source, and its unreasonable disposal leads to resource waste environmental pollution. Black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens L.) larvae (BSFL) facilitate the bioconversion of various types organic wastes. In this study, we found that 88% BSFL survived, 37.4% corn was digested after 14 days feeding with straw. Contrary expectations, pretreatment alkaline hydrogen peroxide did not promote digestion but rather reduced growth survival rates...
