Abstract Chinese goldthread ( Coptis chinensis Franch.), a member of the Ranunculales, represents an important early-diverging eudicot lineage with diverse medicinal applications. Here, we present high-quality chromosome-scale genome assembly and annotation C. . Phylogenetic comparative genomic analyses reveal phylogenetic placement this species identify single round ancient whole-genome duplication (WGD) shared by Ranunculaceae. We characterize genes involved in biosynthesis...
Plant diseases are one of the major threats to global food production. Efficient monitoring and detection plant pathogens instrumental in restricting effectively managing spread disease reducing cost pesticides. Traditional, molecular, serological methods that widely used for often ineffective if not applied during initial stages pathogenesis, when no or very weak symptoms appear. Moreover, they almost useless acquiring spatialized diagnostic results on diseases. On other hand, remote...
Medicinal plants are vital in synthesizing crucial substrates, fortifying stress resilience, and serving clinical industrial domains. The optimization of pharmacological potential necessitates a nuanced understanding the factors governing synthesis secondary metabolites sourced from plants. Cultivation success hinges upon many dictating production these compounds. Biotic factors, encompassing pathogens herbivores, alongside abiotic such as light exposure, altitude, temperature variations,...
Soil types and cropping systems influence the diversity composition of rhizospheric microbial communities. Coptis chinensis Franch is one most important medicinal plants in China. In current study, we provide detailed information regarding fungal communities C. continuous fields fallow two seasons (winter summer), using next-generation sequencing. Alpha was higher five-year field lower fields. Significant differences analysis confirmed more fungi cultivated soil than Additionally, PCoA beta...
Tinospora sagittata (Oliv.) Gagnep. is an important medicinal tetraploid plant in the Menispermaceae family. Its tuber, Radix Tinosporae, used traditional Chinese medicine, rich diterpenoids and benzylisoquinoline alkaloids (BIAs). To enhance our understanding of compounds' biosynthesis Menispermaceae's evolution, we herein report assembling a high-quality chromosome-scale genome with both PacBio HiFi Illumina sequencing technologies. Sequel II generated 2.5 million circular consensus (CCS)...
Pinellia ternata (Thunb.) Breit is a widely used medicinal herb in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Still, its sustainable cultivation threatened by continuous cropping obstacles, which disrupt soil ecosystems, reduce yield, and degrade quality. Objectives: This study explores the potential of microbial inoculants to mitigate these challenges through integrated metabolomic transcriptomic analyses. Methods: Soil samples from fields with without issues were compare effects on secondary...
Soil microorganisms are critical factors of plant productivity in terrestrial ecosystems. Coptis chinensis Franch is one the most important medicinal plants China. types and cropping systems influence diversity composition rhizospheric microbial communities. In current study, we provide detailed information regarding bacterial communities C. continuously cropped fields fallow two seasons (i.e., winter summer) using next-generation sequencing. The alpha was higher five-year cultivated field...
Chinese goldthread (Coptis chinensis Franch.) represents one of the most important medicinal plants with diverse applications, but it easily suffers from continuous cropping obstacles in plantation. In this study, we have selected eight different continuously cropped fields C. and fallow field, providing detailed information regarding diversity composition rhizospheric bacterial communities. We found a significant difference between field (LH) other soil pH; total content nitrogen,...
Plant species and cropping systems influence rhizospheric fungal communities’ composition, diversity, structure. The fungus community is one of the main factors behind soil health quality. Yet, there insufficient evidence research on effect plant with continuous histories community. In order to investigate how responds various systems, we have chosen field that left fallow along eight continuously farmed areas research. Among phyla, relative abundance Ascomycota was significantly higher in...
