Abstract Water lilies belong to the angiosperm order Nymphaeales. Amborellales, Nymphaeales and Austrobaileyales together form so-called ANA-grade of angiosperms, which are extant representatives lineages that diverged earliest from lineage leading mesangiosperms 1–3 . Here we report 409-megabase genome sequence blue-petal water lily ( Nymphaea colorata ). Our phylogenomic analyses support Amborellales as successive sister all other angiosperms. The N. 19 transcriptomes reveal a Nymphaealean...
Significance Land plants produce numerous terpenoids that regulate development and mediate environmental interactions. Thus, how typical plant terpene synthase ( TPS ) genes originated evolved to create terpenoid diversity is of fundamental interest. By investigating TPSs from the genomes transcriptomes diverse taxa green plants, it was demonstrated here ancestral gene in land after divergence algae encoded a bifunctional ent -kaurene for phytohormone biosynthesis. This then underwent...
Summary Rice blast disease, caused by the fungus Magnaporthe oryzae , is most devastating disease of rice. In our ongoing characterization defence mechanisms rice plants against M. a terpene synthase gene Os TPS 19 was identified as candidate gene. Here, we report functional which up‐regulated infection. Overexpression in enhanced resistance while RNA i lines were more susceptible to pathogen. Metabolic analysis revealed that production monoterpene ( S )‐limonene increased and decreased...
Significance Terpenoids are ubiquitous products made by land plants with diverse biological functions. Their formation in seed is catalyzed typical plant terpene synthases (TPSs), a well-characterized group of enzymes. In contrast, our knowledge terpenoid biosynthesis nonseed very limited. By systematically analyzing the transcriptomes and/or genomes more than 1000 species, we report that microbial synthase-like genes, which only distantly related to TPS widely distributed plants, but...
Abstract Insect‐induced plant volatile organic compounds (VOCs) may function as either direct defence molecules to deter insects or indirect signals attract the natural enemies of invading insects. Tea ( Camellia sinensis L.), an important leaf‐based beverage crop, is mainly infested by Ectropis obliqua which causes most serious damage. Here, we report a mechanistic investigation tea plant‐derived VOCs in mechanism against E. . Parasitoid wasp Parapanteles hyposidrae , enemy showed strong...
Carotenoids differentiate among tea cultivars and play role in contributing aroma flavor colour appearance products. In this study, 3 carotenes 16 xanthophylls were accurately quantified of 0.79–1.56 × 103 μg g−1 15 possessing leaves different colours. Lutein β-carotene accounted for >80% total carotenoids. Single carotenoid accumulation patterns their correlations with chlorophylls primary metabolites (amino acids, alkaloids, saccharides) elucidated. Tea processing (withering, 'kill-green,'...
The tea geometrid (Ectropis obliqua Prout, Lepidoptera: Geometridae) is a dominant chewing insect endemic in most tea-growing areas China. Recently some E. populations have been found to be resistant the nucleopolyhedrovirus (EoNPV), host-specific virus that has so far only obliqua. Although are morphologically indistinguishable from susceptible populations, we conducted nationwide collection and examined genetic divergence COI region of mtDNA Phylogenetic analyses 17 revealed two divergent...
Chinese dark teas (CDTs) are now among the popular tea beverages worldwide due to their unique health benefits. Because production of CDTs involves fermentation that is characterized by effect microbes, microorganisms believed play critical roles in determination chemical characteristics CDTs. Some dominant fungi have been identified from In contrast, little, if anything, known about composition bacterial community This study was set investigate diversity and variation four major types...
Fungi are successful eukaryotes of wide distribution. They known as rich producers secondary metabolites, especially terpenoids, which important for fungi-environment interactions. Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is an mechanism contributing to genetic innovation fungi. However, it remains unclear whether HGT has played a role in creating the enormous chemical diversity fungal terpenoids. Here we report that fungi have acquired terpene synthase genes (TPSs), encode pivotal enzymes terpenoid...
Soil microenvironments and plant varieties could largely affect rhizosphere microbial community structure functions. However, their specific effects on the tea are yet not clear. Beneficial microorganisms important groups of communities that hold ecological functionalities by playing critical roles in disease resistance, environmental stress tolerance. Longjing43 Zhongcha108 two widely planted China. Although shows higher resistance than Longjing43, potential role beneficial microbes is...
Tea green leafhopper is one of the most damaging tea pests in main production regions East Asia. For lack recognized morphological characters, dominant species leafhoppers Mainland China, Taiwan and Japan have always been named as Empoasca vitis Göthe, Jacobiasca formosana Paoli onukii MATSUDA, respectively. Furthermore, nothing known about genetic relationships among them. In this study, we collected six populations from four population Taiwan, examined distances COI 16sRNA mtDNA The...
It has become increasingly important to quantify carbon and water fluxes due their roles in global warming climate change, particularly for the agroecosystems. However, dynamics of have not been clearly recognized rotation croplands with complex changeable climate. Here, variations net ecosystem productivity (NEP), evapotranspiration (ET) use efficiency (WUE, defined as NEP/ET), responses environmental factors were investigated a wheat-maize cropland across Huaibei Plain China over...
Tea plant, Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze, a well-known heavy metal hyperaccumulator, possesses powerful tolerance to metals. The stresses lead reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and high concentration of ROS is harmful plants. glutathione peroxidase gene has positive function damage induced by ROS. To understand the mechanism deferent in tea new plant was cloned its expression pattern analyzed under abiotic biotic stresses. A novel cDNA encoding (Camellia sinensis) isolated rapid...
