Abstract In order to understand the genetic diversity and structure within between genera of Saccharum Erianthus , 79 accessions from five species ( S. officinarum spontaneum robustum barberi sinense ), six E. arundinaceus 30 spp. hybrids were analyzed using 21 pairs fluorescence-labeled highly poloymorphic SSR primers a capillary electrophoresis (CE) detection system. A total 167 polymorphic alleles identified by CE with mean value information content (PIC) 0.92. Genetic parameters among...
WRKY transcription factors (TFs) are essential players in different signaling cascades and regulatory networks involved defense responses to various stressors. This study systematically analyzed characterized family genes the Saccharum spp. hybrid R570 their expression two sugarcane cultivars LCP85-384 (resistant leaf scald) ROC20 (susceptible response bacterial pathogen infection nitrogen implantation dosage. A total of 53 ShWRKY with 66 alleles were identified based on query sequence...
Selenium is an important trace element that beneficial to human health and can enhance plant resistance crop quality. The occurrence of up-to-date nanotechnology greatly promotes the efficiency this on crops. discovery nano-Se increased quality reduced disease in different plant. In study, we sugarcane leaf scald incidence by exogenously spraying concentrations (5 mg/L 10 mg/L) nano-Se. Additional studies revealed reactive oxygen species (ROS) H2O2 accumulation, antioxidant enzyme activities...
RNAi is regarded as a promising technology for pest control. However, not all insects are sensitive to RNAi. Studies have confirmed that insect dsRNases one of key factors affecting efficiency. In the current study, we identified four genes coding from Spodoptera frugiperda genome. Spatial and temporal expression analysis showed those were highly expressed in midgut old larvae. Then delivery method was applied inducing efficient based on dsRNA encapsulated by liposome. Furthermore, assessed...
RNAi plays a crucial role in insect gene function research and pest control field. Nonetheless, the variable efficiency of across diverse insects off-target effects also limited its further application. In this study, we cloned six essential housekeeping genes from Solenopsis invicta conducted experiments by orally administering dsRNA. Then, found that mixing with liposomes significantly enhanced targeting for SiV-ATPaseE. Additionally, observed certain lethal effect dsRNA on queens our...
ABSTRACT Plants have developed various resistance mechanisms against herbivorous insects through prolonged coevolution. Plant defence responses can be triggered by specific compounds present in insect saliva. Apyrase, a known enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and diphosphate (ADP) into monophosphate (AMP) inorganic phosphorus, has recently been identified some insects. However, whether salivary apyrase induces or inhibits plant remains poorly understood. In...
The invasion of the fall armyworm poses substantial threats to local agricultural safety, including sugarcane industry. Exploring insect-resistance mechanism is crucial for breeding resistant varieties. This study selected three representative materials from Saccharum genus─Saccharum officinarum L. (Badila), S. spp. hybrid (GT58), and spontaneum (SES208), investigate feeding preferences developmental fitness Spodoptera frugiperda. Larvae exhibited a strong preference highest parameters in...
Abstract RNA silencing is a conserved mechanism in eukaryotic organisms to regulate gene expression. Argonaute (AGO), Dicer-like (DCL) and RNA-dependent polymerase (RDR) proteins are critical components of silencing, but how these families’ functions sugarcane were largely unknown. Most stress-resistance genes modern cultivars ( Saccharum spp.) originated from wild species , for example S. spontaneum . Here, we used genome-wide analysis phylogenetic approach identify four DCL 21 AGO 11 RDR...
Plants must adapt to the complex effects of several stressors brought on by global warming, which may result in interaction and superposition between diverse stressors. Few reports are available how drought stress affects Xanthomonas albilineans (Xa) infection sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrids). Drought leaf scald resistance were identified 16 cultivars using Xa inoculation soil treatments, respectively. Subsequently, four contrasting used explore mechanisms affecting Xa–sugarcane...
Recently-developed molecular markers are becoming powerful tools, with applications in crop genetics and improvement. Microsatellites, or simple sequence repeats (SSRs), widely used genetic fingerprinting, kinship analysis, population genetics, because of the advantages high variability from co-dominant multi-allelic polymorphisms, accurate rapid detection. However, more recent evidence suggests they may play an important role genome evolution provide hotspots recombination. This review...
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrids) is a major source of sugar and renewable bioenergy crop worldwide suffers serious yield losses due to many pathogen infections. Leaf scald caused by Xanthomonas albilineans bacterial disease sugarcane in most sugarcane-planting countries. The molecular mechanisms resistance leaf this plant are, however, still unclear. We performed comparative transcriptome analysis between resistant (LCP 85-384) susceptible (ROC20) cultivars infected X. using the RNA-seq...
Post-transcriptional gene silencing is commonly observed in polyploid species and often poses a major limitation to plant improvement via biotechnology. Five viral suppressors of RNA were evaluated for their ability counteract enhance the expression Enhanced Yellow Fluorescent Protein (EYFP) or β-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter sugarcane, sugar biomass producing polyploid. Functionality these was first verified Nicotiana benthamiana onion epidermal cells, later tested by transient sugarcane...
