Cotton is not only the world's most important natural fiber crop, but it also an ideal system in which to study genome evolution, polyploidization, and cell elongation. With assembly of five different cotton genomes, a cotton-specific whole-genome duplication with allopolyploidization process that combined A- D-genomes became evident. All existing A-genomes seemed originate from A 0 -genome as common ancestor, several transposable element bursts contributed A-genome size expansion...
Functionally similar to the tight junctions present in animal guts, plant roots have evolved a lignified Casparian strip as an extracellular diffusion barrier endodermis seal root apoplast and maintain nutrient homeostasis. How this is structured has been partially defined, but its lignin polymerization assembly steps remain elusive. Here, we characterize family of dirigent proteins (DPs) essential for both localized required biogenesis cell wall attachment plasma membrane apoplast. We...
A new recurrent neural-network predictive feedback control structure for a class of uncertain nonlinear dynamic time-delay systems in canonical form is developed and analyzed. The system has constant input time delays due to communications channel. proposed consists linearized subsystem local the controlled plant remote controller located at master command station. In subsystem, neural network with on-line weight tuning algorithm employed approximate dynamics time-delay-free plant. No...
Significance Cotton is an important crop, and terpenoids form the largest group of natural products. Gossypol related sesquiterpene aldehydes in cotton function as phytoalexins against pathogens pests but pose human health concerns, oil still widely used vegetable oil. We report isolation identification four enzymes recharacterization one previously reported P450. are now close to completion gossypol pathway, progress agricultural plant sciences, data beneficial improving food safety. Among...
Plants can synthesize a wide range of terpenoids in response to various environmental cues. However, the specific regulatory mechanisms governing terpenoid biosynthesis at cellular level remain largely elusive. In this study, we employed single-cell RNA sequencing comprehensively characterize transcriptome profile cotton leaves and established hierarchical transcriptional network regulating cell-specific production. We observed substantial expression levels genes associated with both...
Abstract Plants have evolved diverse defense mechanisms encompassing physical and chemical barriers. Cotton pigment glands are known for containing various metabolites, but the precise regulation of gland size to modulate compound levels remains enigmatic. Here, it is discovered that VQ domain‐containing protein JAVL negatively regulates biosynthesis compounds, while MYC2‐like transcription factor GoPGF has opposite effect. Notably, directly activates expression , whereas suppresses...
Aero-engine performance monitoring is a core component of the engine health management system and an important approach to enhancing flight safety reliability. Meanwhile, improve operation efficiency, control systems are evolving from traditional centralized architectures distributed architectures. To alleviate negative impact network uncertainties, this paper proposes Distributed Adaptive Kalman Filter (DAKF), which resolves estimation degradation classical under uncertainty by designing...
The recent advancement of stretchable photoelectronics has catalyzed revolutionary transformations in various cutting-edge fields. However, the transparent electrodes (STEs), which are vital components ensuring signal conduction photoelectronics, pose a challenge due to rigid and fragile nature conventional conductive materials. In this study, we demonstrated prestrain transfer technique for fabricating STEs using PEDOT:PSS. resulting achieved sheet resistance approximately 50 Ω/sq by...
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification plays important regulatory roles in plant development and adapting to the environment, which requires methyltransferases achieve methylation process. However, there has been no research regarding m6A cotton. Here, a systematic analysis of methyltransferase (METTL) gene family was performed on twelve cotton species, resulting six METTLs identified five allotetraploid cottons, respectively, three four seven diploid species. Phylogenetic protein-coding...
Terpene synthases (TPSs) are responsible for the extremely diversified and complex structure of terpenoids. Amorpha-4,11-diene synthase (ADS) has a high (90%) fidelity in generating sesquiterpene precursor biosynthesis artemisinin, an antimalarial drug, however, little is known about how active site residues ADS involved carbocation rearrangement cyclization reactions. Here, we identify seven that key to most catalytic steps ADS. By structural modeling amino acid sequence alignments with two...
Plant secondary metabolites and their biosynthesis have attracted great interest, but investigations of the activities hidden intermediates remain rare. Gossypol related sesquiterpenes are major phytoalexins in cotton. Among six biosynthetic recently identified, 8-hydroxy-7-keto-δ-cadinene (C234) crippled plant disease resistance when accumulated upon gene silencing. C234 harbours an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl thus is a reactive electrophile species. Here, we show that application also...
Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is one of the world's most important commercial crops. However, dynamics metabolite abundance and potential regulatory networks throughout its life cycle remain poorly understood. In this study, we developed a comprehensive Metabolism Regulatory Network (CMRN) encompassing various developmental stages, involving 2,138 metabolites 90,309 genes expressed in upland cotton. By integrating high-resolution spatiotemporal metabolome transcriptome data, identified...
Amorpha-4,11-diene synthase (ADS) is the first committed enzyme in biosynthesis of artemisinin. Artemisinin production by biobased fermentation considered a reliable alternative pathway. Heterologously expressed ADS has been established to generate several minor products, including structural analogues amorpha-4,11-diene, but their fate still unknown. Here, using chiral analysis, we found that produces one analogues, amorpha-4-en-11-ol, as pair epimers. Labeling experiments revealed mutants...
