The development of formaldehyde-free functional wood composite materials through the preparation strong and multifunctional soybean protein adhesives to replace formaldehyde-based resins is an important research area. However, ensuring bonding performance adhesive while simultaneously developing thermally conductive its corresponding composites challenging. Taking inspiration from microphase separation structure spider silk, boron nitride (BN) soy isolate (SPI) were mixed by ball milling...

Recombinant bacterial vaccines must be fully attenuated for animal or human hosts to avoid inducing disease symptoms while exhibiting a high degree of immunogenicity. Unfortunately, many well-studied means attenuating Salmonella render strains more susceptible host defense stresses encountered following oral vaccination than wild-type virulent and/or impair their ability effectively colonize the gut-associated and internal lymphoid tissues. This thus impairs recombinant serve as factories...

Rice blast caused by Magnaporthe oryzae poses a major threat to rice production worldwide. The utilization of host resistance (R) genes is considered be the most effective and economic means control blast. Here, we show that japonica landrace Yangmaogu (YMG) displays broader spectrum isolates than other previously reported broad-spectrum resistant (BSR) cultivars. Genetic analysis suggested YMG contains at least three R genes. One gene, Pi64, which exhibits indica-sourced isolate CH43...

Lesion-mimic mutants are useful to dissect programmed cell death and defense-related pathways in plants. Here we identified a new rice lesion-mimic mutant, spotted leaf 33 (spl33) cloned the causal gene by map-based cloning strategy. SPL33 encodes eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha (eEF1A)-like protein consisting of non-functional zinc finger domain three functional EF-Tu domains. spl33 exhibited death-mediated early senescence, as evidenced analyses four histochemical markers,...

Abstract Plant heat shock transcription factors (HSFs) are involved in and other abiotic stress responses. However, their functions salt tolerance little known. In this study, we characterized the function of a HSF from Arabidopsis, AtHSFA7b, tolerance. AtHSFA7b is nuclear protein with transactivation activity. ChIP-seq combined an RNA-seq assay indicated that preferentially binds to novel cis-acting element, termed E-box-like motif, regulate gene expression; it also element motif. Under...

Wheat sharp eyespot, primarily caused by a soil-borne fungus Rhizoctonia cerealis, has become one of the most serious diseases wheat in China. In this study, an ethylene response factor (ERF) gene from relative Thinopyrum intermedium, TiERF1, was characterized further, transgenic lines expressing TiERF1 were developed, and resistance against R. cerealis investigated. Southern blotting analysis indicated that at least two copies exist T. intermedium genome. Yeast one-hybrid assay activation...

Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), the causal agent of wilt (Panama disease), is one most devastating diseases banana (Musa spp.). The Foc tropical race 4 (TR4) currently known as a major concern in global production. No effective resistance Musa to Foc, and no measures for controlling once plants have been infected place. Early accurate detection TR4 essential protect industry guide planting. A real-time fluorescence loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay (RealAmp) was developed...

Drought and nitrogen (N) deficiency are two major limiting factors for forest productivity in many ecosystems. Elucidating the mechanisms underlying influence of soil N availability on drought responses tree species is crucial to improve growth under drought.The root proliferation was enhanced by adequate application. Vessel frequency xylem increased upon drought, with more significant increase conditions compared that low conditions, possibly leading hydraulic safety. Nitrogen application...
