Summary In plants, the plasticity of root architecture in response to nitrogen availability largely determines acquisition efficiency. One poorly understood growth low is an observed increase number and length lateral roots ( LR s). Here, we show that nitrogen‐induced A rabidopsis depends on function auxin biosynthesis gene TAR 2 (tryptophan aminotransferase related 2). was expressed pericycle vasculature mature zone near tip, induced under conditions. wild type stimulated accumulation...
Nitrate is a major nitrogen resource for cereal crops; thus, understanding nitrate signaling in crops valuable engineering with improved use efficiency. Although several regulators have been identified sensing and Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), the equivalent information cereals missing. Here, we isolated nitrate-inducible cereal-specific NAM, ATAF, CUC (NAC) transcription factor, TaNAC2-5A, from wheat (Triticum aestivum). A chromatin immunoprecipitation assay showed that TaNAC2-5A...
Increasing fertilizer consumption has led to low use efficiency and environmental problems. Identifying nutrient-efficient genes will facilitate the breeding of crops with improved efficiency. This research performed a genome-wide sequence analysis A (NFYA), B (NFYB), C (NFYC) subunits Nuclear Factor Y (NF-Y) in wheat (Triticum aestivum) further investigated their responses nitrogen phosphorus availability seedlings. Sequence mining together gene cloning identified 18 NFYAs, 34 NFYBs, 28...
Quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping is an efficient approach to discover the genetic architecture underlying complex quantitative traits. However, low density of molecular markers in maps has limited efficiency and accuracy QTL mapping. In this study, specific length amplified fragment sequencing (SLAF-seq), a new high-throughput strategy for large-scale SNP discovery genotyping based on next generation (NGS), was employed construct high-density soybean map using recombinant inbred lines...
Introduction Global malnutrition continues to be a canker owing poor eating habits and over-reliance on the major staple crops. Vegetable soybean (maodou) is gaining popularity globally as an affordable snack vegetable. Methods In this study, we profiled nutritional composition of 12 cultivars at vegetable (R6-R7) mature (R8) stages. We also conducted RNA-seq analysis during seed development, focusing key biosynthesis enzymes for quality traits. Results The results showed that 100 g maodou...
Abstract Rice has a preference for uptake of ammonium over nitrate and can use ammonium‐N efficiently. Consequently, transporters mediating have been extensively studied, but largely ignored. Recently, some reports shown that rice also high capacity to acquire from growth medium, so understanding the transport system in roots is very important improving N efficiency rice. The present study identified four putative NRT2 two NAR2 genes encode components high‐affinity (HATS) ( Oryza sativa L....
The soybean seed chemical quality traits (including protein content, oil fatty acid composition, isoflavone and subunits), soymilk character (soluble solid), sensory attributes were evaluated among 70 genotypes to determine the correlation between attributes. Six parameters (i.e., aroma, smoothness in mouth, thickness sweetness, colour appearance, overall acceptability) a seven-point hedonic scale for each parameter developed. Significant positive correlations observed acceptability other...
Plants often suffer from hypoxic stress during waterlogging and hydroponic culturing. This study investigated the response of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) plant growth parameters, leaf photosynthesis, chlorophyll fluorescence, fast a fluorescence transient (OJIP), fruit quality parameters to alleviated by exogenous calcium. During fruiting period, plants were exposed hypoxia + Ca2+ treatment (4 mM Ca2+) for 9 d. Exogenous calcium application enhanced biomass stressed also increased net...
The deteriorating air quality in eastern China including the Yangtze River Delta is attracting growing public concern. In this study, we measured ambient PM10 and fine PM2.5 mega-city, Nanjing at four different times. 24-h average mass concentrations were 0.033–0.234 0.042–0.328 mg/m3, respectively. daily 2.9 (2.7–3.2, 95% confidence interval) 4.2 (3.8–4.6) times WHO guidelines of 0.025 mg/m3 for 0.050 PM10, respectively, which indicated serious pollution city. There was no obvious weekend...
Soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill) isoflavones are secondary metabolites of great interest because their beneficial impact on human health. We profiled the seed isoflavone composition 1168 soybean accessions collected from diverse ecoregions China in three locations over two years. observed significant differences content among accessions, accession types, years growth and origin. Total (TIF) concentration ranged 745 μg g−1 to 5253.98 g−1, which represents a 7-fold difference. The highest mean...
Soybean isoflavone content has long been considered to be a desirable trait target in selection programs for their contribution human health and plant defense systems. The objective of this study was determine concentrations various soybean cultivars from maturity groups 0 VI grown environments analyze relationship other important seed characters. Forty were replicated trials at Wuhan Beijing China 2009/2010 individual total determined by HPLC. Their yield quality traits also concurrently...
The stability of soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill) oil is determined mainly by its fatty acid (FA) composition. We evaluated the FA composition 1025 Chinese accessions collected from diverse ecoregions and grown in multiple locations years. observed highly significant differences (P < 0.001) between palmitic (PA), stearic (SA), oleic (OA), linoleic (LA), linolenic (LNA) contents. Growth year affected abundance all FAs except PA. mean PA, SA, OA, LA, LNA contents were 12.2%, 3.8%, 21.5%,...
Soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) is one of the most important crops in world. Its major content vegetable oil made it widely used for human consumption and several food industries. To investigate variation seed fatty acid composition soybeans from different origins, a set 633 soybean accessions originated four diverse germplasm collections—including China, United States America (USA), Japan, Russia—were grown three locations, Beijing, Anhui, Hainan two years. The results showed significant...
