Physical damage to cells leads the release of immunomodulatory peptides elicit a wound defense response in surrounding tissue. In Arabidopsis thaliana, plant elicitor peptide 1 (Pep1) is processed from its protein precursor, PRECURSOR OF PEP1 (PROPEP1). We demonstrate that upon damage, both at tissue and single-cell levels, cysteine protease METACASPASE4 (MC4) instantly spatiotemporally activated by binding high levels Ca2+ necessary sufficient for Pep1 maturation. Cytosol-localized PROPEP1...
bHLH (basic helix-loop-helix) transcription factors play important roles in the abiotic stress response plants, but their characteristics and functions tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum), a flavonoid-rich cereal crop with strong tolerance, have not been fully investigated. Here, novel gene, designated FtbHLH3, was isolated characterized. Expression analysis revealed that FtbHLH3 mainly induced by polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG6000) abscisic acid (ABA) treatments. Subcellular localization...
Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum) is rich in flavonols, which are thought to be highly beneficial for human health. However, little known about the regulatory mechanism of flavonol biosynthesis buckwheat. In this study, we identified and characterized a novel SG7 R2R3-MYB transcription factor buckwheat, FtMYB6. We showed that FtMYB6 located nucleus acts as transcriptional activator. The promoter strong spatiotemporal specificity was induced by light. expression significant correlation...
Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum Gaertn.) is a coarse cereal with strongly abiotic resistance. The MYB family plays regulatory role in plant growth, development, and responses to biotic stresses. However, the characteristics mechanisms of transcription factors remain unclarified. Here, this study cloned FtMYB22 gene from buckwheat, investigated its involvement responding individual water deficit salt stress Arabidopsis. Sequence analysis highlighted that N-termini contained two highly...
Abstract Background Plant U-box (PUB) E3 ubiquitin ligases have vital effects on various biological processes. Therefore, a comprehensive and systematic identification of the members gene family in potato will help to understand evolution function plants. Results This work identified altogether 74 PUBs (StPUBs) examined their structures, chromosomal distributions, conserved motifs. There were seventy-four StPUB genes ten chromosomes with diverse densities. As revealed by phylogenetic...
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) play crucial roles in crop stress tolerance through protection against oxidative damage. In this study, we conducted genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the GST gene family autotetraploid potato cultivar Cooperative-88 (C88) using bioinformatic approaches. We identified 366 genes genome, which were classified into 10 subfamilies. Chromosomal mapping revealed that StGSTs distributed across all 12 chromosomes, with 13 tandem duplication...
The JASMONATE-ZIM DOMAIN (JAZ) repressors are crucial proteins in the jasmonic acid signaling pathway that play a significant role plant growth, development and response to abiotic stress (such as drought, heat, salinity, low temperature). In this study, we identified 26 potato JAZ genes classified corresponding predicted into five subfamilies. All exhibited expected conserved TIFY (TIF[F/Y] XG) domains. Additionally, several stress-responsive cis-regulatory elements, notably ABRE ARE...
As global arid conditions worsen and groundwater resources diminish, drought stress has emerged as a critical impediment to plant growth development globally, notably causing declines in crop yields even the extinction of certain cultivated species. Numerous studies on resistance have demonstrated that DNA methylation dynamically interacts with responses by modulating gene expression developmental processes. However, precise mechanisms underlying these interactions remain elusive. This...
Because flavonoids and trichomes play crucial roles in plant defence, their formation requires fine transcriptional control by multiple transcription factor families. However, little is known regarding the mechanism of R2R3-MYB factors that regulate both flavonoid metabolism trichome development.Here, we identified a unique SG4-like-MYB TF from Tartary buckwheat, FtMYB8, which harbours C2 repression motif an additional TLLLFR motif. The expression profiles FtMYB8 combined with activity...
Calcium-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) are a class of serine/threonine encoded by several gene families that play key roles in stress response and plant growth development. In this study, the BLAST method was used to search for sequences potato kinase family. The chromosome location, phylogeny, structures, duplication, cis-acting elements, protein-protein interaction, expression profiles were analyzed. Twenty-five CDPK genes genome identified based on RNA-seq data clustered into four...
Drought stress is a major threat to sustainable crop production worldwide. Despite the positive role of calcium (Ca2+) in improving plant drought tolerance different crops, little attention has been paid its mitigating potatoes. In present study, we studied effect foliar chelated sugar alcohol treatments on two potato cultivars with responses applied 15 and 30 days after limiting soil moisture. The results showed that application alleviated SPAD chlorophyll loss drought-sensitive cultivar...
(1) Background: Potato is the most important tuber crop in world that can contribute to food security. However, has been shown be sensitive drought and its yields decline significantly during successive periods of stress. Drought triggers a number responses potato, ranging from physiological changes fluctuations growth rates yields. In light global climate change, it understand effects thiamethoxam on potato yield under conditions. (2) Methods: The objective was evaluate impact improving...
PYR/PYL/RCAR proteins are abscisic acid (ABA) receptors that play a crucial role in plant responses to abiotic stresses. However, there have been no research reports on potato PYL so far. In this study,
Pyrabactin resistance 1-like (PYL) proteins are abscisic acid (ABA) receptors that play a crucial role in the plant's response to adverse environmental conditions. However, as of yet, there is limited research on PYL potato. In this study, potato
Plant‐specific NAC (NAM, ATAF1/2, and CUC2) transcription factors (TFs) play important roles in various stress responses. However, the characteristics functions of TFs Tartary buckwheat [ Fagopyrum tataricum (L.) Gaertn.], an pseudocereal crop that is strongly adapted to growth adverse environments, have not been investigated. Here, eight ‐like genes, termed FtNAC2 through FtNAC9 , were isolated characterized from buckwheat. Amino acid sequence alignment analysis demonstrated all FtNAC...
Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum) is an edible cereal crop whose sprouts have been marketed and commercialized for their higher levels of anti-oxidants, including rutin anthocyanin. UDP-glucose flavonoid glycosyltransferases (UFGTs) play important role in the biosynthesis flavonoids plants. So far, few studies are available on UFGT genes that may a tartary biosynthesis. Here, we report identification functional characterization seven UFGTs from potentially involved (and varying effects...
