With burst structural variants involving inversion, translocations, duplications within 8.39...
Post-harvest rot causes enormous economic loss to the global kiwifruit industry. Currently, there are no effective fungicides combat disease. It is unclear whether silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in controlling post-harvest and, if so, what underlying antifungal mechanism is. Our results indicated that 75 ppm AgNPs effectively inhibited mycelial growth and spore germination of four pathogens: Alternaria alternata, Pestalotiopsis microspora, Diaporthe actinidiae, Botryosphaeria dothidea....
Bacterial–fungal interaction (BFI) has significant implications for the health of host plants. While diffusible antibiotic metabolite-mediated competition in BFI been extensively characterized, impact intercellular contact remains largely elusive. Here, we demonstrate that is a prevalent mode between beneficial soil bacteria and pathogenic filamentous fungi. By generating antibiotics-deficient mutants two common bacteria, Lysobacter enzymogenes Pseudomonas fluorescens , show...
Kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis Planchon) is an important specialty fruit crop that suffers from narrow genetic diversity stemming recent global commercialization and limited cultivar improvement. Here, we present high-density RAD-seq-based maps using interspecific F1 cross between Actinidia rufa 'MT570001' A. 'Guihai No4'. The (maternal) map consists of 2,426 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers with a total length 2,651 cM in 29 linkage groups (LGs) corresponding to the chromosomes....
Summary Reticulate speciation caused by interspecific hybridization is now recognized as an important mechanism in the creation of biological diversity. However, depicting patterns phylogenetic networks for lineages that have undergone gene flow challenging. Here we sequenced 25 taxa representing natural diversity genus Actinidia with average mapping depth 26× on reference genome to reconstruct their reticulate history. We found evidence, including significant tree discordance, cytonuclear...
Angiosperm mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are notable for their extreme diversity in both size and structure. However, our current understanding of this is limited, the underlying mechanism contributing to remains unclear. Here, we completely assembled compared mitogenomes three kiwifruit (Actinidia) species, which represent an early divergent lineage asterids. We found conserved gene content fewer genomic repeats, particularly large repeats (>1 kb), mitogenomes. sequence transfers such...
