The development of strategies for effectively manipulating and engineering beneficial plant-associated microbiomes is a major challenge in microbial ecology. In this sense, the efficacy potential implications rhizosphere microbiome transplant (RMT) plant disease management have only scarcely been explored literature. Here, we initially investigated differences 12 Solanaceae eggplant varieties accessed their level resistance promoted against bacterial wilt caused by pathogen Ralstonia...
Abstract The eggplant ( Solanum melongena L.) is one of the most important Solanaceae crops, ranking third for total production and economic value in its genus. Herein, we report a high‐quality, chromosome‐scale reference genome sequence 1155.8 Mb, with an N50 93.9 which was assembled by combining PacBio long reads Hi‐C sequencing data. Repetitive sequences occupied 70.1% assembly length, 35,018 high‐confidence protein‐coding genes were annotated based on multiple sources. Comparative...
The RIPENING-INHIBITOR (RIN) transcriptional factor is a key regulator governing fruit ripening. While RIN also affects other physiological processes, its potential roles in triggering interactions with the rhizosphere microbiome and plant health are unknown. Here we show that microbiome-mediated disease resistance via root exudation, leading to recruitment of microbiota suppress soil-borne, phytopathogenic Ralstonia solanacearum bacterium. Compared wild-type (WT) plant, mutants had...
Summary The plant hormone ethylene plays a critical role in fruit defense against Botrytis cinerea attack, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we showed that response factor SlERF.C1 acts as key regulator to trigger ethylene‐mediated B. tomato fruits without compromising ripening. Knockout of increased susceptibility with no effect on ripening process, while overexpression enhanced resistance. RNA‐Seq, transactivation assays, EMSA and ChIP‐qPCR results indicated...
Radish ( Raphanus sativus L.) is a vegetable crop with economic value and ecological significance in the genus Radish, family Brassicaceae . In recent years, developed countries have attached great importance to collection conservation of radish germplasm resources their research utilization, but lack population genetic information molecular markers has hindered development breeding radish. this study, we integrated genomic data published databases for single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)...
Abstract The phytohormone ethylene is well known for its important role in the ripening of climacteric fruit, such as tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). However, and mode action other plant hormones fruit regulation are not fully understood. Here, we showed that exogenous GA treatment or increasing endogenous gibberellin content by overexpressing synthesis gene SlGA3ox2 specifically tissues delayed ripening, whereas with biosynthesis inhibitor paclobutrazol (PAC) accelerated ripening. Moreover,...
The steroidal glycoalkaloids (SGAs) produced in Solanaceae crops, including tomato, are antinutritional because of their cellular toxicity and resultant bitter taste to humans. To make fruits palatable, SGA profiles shift from toxic α-tomatine nonbitter nontoxic esculeoside A during the ripening process. However, mechanisms regulating this conversion remain unclear. In study, we showed that removal SGAs is under control DNA demethylation, ethylene, key transcription factors by forming a...
Abstract Pathogen genetic diversity varies in response to environmental changes. However, it remains unclear whether plant barriers invasion could be considered a bottleneck for phytopathogen populations. Here, we implement barcoding approach generate pool of 90 isogenic and individually barcoded Ralstonia solanacearum strains. We used these strains inoculate tomato plants with different degrees physical permeability (intact roots, wounded roots xylem inoculation) quantify the population...
SUMMARY The presence or absence of spines is an important economic trait cucumber fruit. Spines are believed to be a type specialized trichome on the fruit surface, and all identified trichome‐less mutants lack spines. However, genes that specifically regulate spine initiation remain identified. Here, we found knocking out TARGET OF EAT3 homolog ( CsTOE3 ), belonging APETALA2/ETHYLENE RESPONSE FACTOR (AP2/ERF) family, affected flower development and, more interestingly, inhibited initiation....
The rhizosphere microbiome is important for plant health, yet their contributions to disease resistance and assembly dynamics remain unclear. This study employed transplantation (RMT) delineate the impact of immune response eggplant (
Fruit color is an important trait influencing the commercial value of eggplant fruits. Three dominant genes (D, P and Y) cooperatively control anthocyanin coloration in fruits, but none has been mapped. In this study, two white-fruit accessions (19 141 19 147) their F2 progeny, with 9:7 segregation ratio pigmented versus non-pigmented were used for mapping D genes. A high-density genetic map was constructed 5270 SNPs spanning 1997.98 cM. QTLs identified, including on chromosome 8 one 10....
Solanum torvum (Swartz) (2n = 24) is a wild Solanaceae plant with high economic value that used as rootstock in grafting for plants to improve the resistance soil-borne disease caused by root-knot nematodes (RKNs). However, lack of high-quality reference genome S. hinders research on genetic basis and application horticulture. Herein, we present chromosome-level assembly genomic sequences combining PacBio long reads (HiFi reads), Illumina short Hi-C scaffolding technology. The assembled size...
BackgroundRecent infection testing algorithms (RITAs) incorporating clinical information with the HIV recency assay have been proven to accurately classify recent infection. However, little evidence exists on whether RITAs would help in precisely identifying major drivers of ongoing epidemic.MethodsHIV test results and were collected from 1152 newly diagnosed cases between 2015 2017 Dehong prefecture Yunnan province, efficacy four different risk factors for new was compared.ResultsRITA 1...
Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is important for commercial hybrid seed production. However, it still not used in eggplant (Solanum melongena L.), and corresponding regulatory genes mechanisms of action have been reported. We report CMS line 327A, which was derived from the hybridization between cultivated wild eggplants. By looking at different stages anther development under a microscope, we saw that 327A anther’s tapetum layer vacuolized during meiosis, caused abortion. To investigate...
Peel color is one of the most important appearance qualities eggplant. The main pigment in peel green-fruited eggplant chlorophyll, while white-fruited a mutant chlorophyll biosynthesis. A dominant gene Gv controls biosynthesis peel, but none its genes have been mapped. In this study, white-peel inbred line 19141, green-peel 19143, and their F2 progeny with 3:1 segregation ratio plants to plants, were used map Gv1 locus by whole genome re-sequencing combined bulked segregant analysis (BSA)....
Abstract Resistant crop cultivars can recruit beneficial rhizobacteria to resist disease. However, whether this recruitment is regulated by quantitative trait loci (QTL) unclear. The role of QTL in recruiting specific bacteria against bacterial wilt (BW) an important question practical significance disease management. Here, identify controlling BW resistance, Super-BSA was performed F2 plants derived from resistant eggplant cultivar R06112 × susceptible S55193. narrowed down through...

Heterostyly is a common floral polymorphism, but the proteomic basis of this trait still largely unexplored. In study, self- and cross-pollination L-morph S-morph flowers comparison embryo sac development in eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) suggested that lower fruit set from results stigma-pollen incompatibility. To explore molecular mechanism underlying heterostyly development, we conducted isobaric tags for relative absolute quantification (iTRAQ) analysis pistils L- flowers. A total 5,259...
