Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is the world's most important non-grain food crop and central to global security. It clonally propagated, highly heterozygous, autotetraploid, suffers acute inbreeding depression. Here we use a homozygous doubled-monoploid potato clone sequence assemble 86% of 844-megabase genome. We predict 39,031 protein-coding genes present evidence for at least two genome duplication events indicative palaeopolyploid origin. As first an asterid, reveals 2,642 specific this...
Yijun Ruan and colleagues report the draft genome of sweet orange, Citrus sinensis. Their data suggests orange originated from a cross between pummelo mandarin. Oranges are an important nutritional source for human health have immense economic value. Here we present comprehensive analysis (Citrus sinensis). The assembled sequence covers 87.3% estimated genome, which is relatively compact, as 20% composed repetitive elements. We predicted 29,445 protein-coding genes, half in heterozygous...
Songlin Chen, Manfred Schartl, Qingyin Wang, Deborah M. Power and colleagues analyze the genome of Japanese flounder its transcriptome dynamics during metamorphosis. They report a role for thyroid hormone retinoic acid signaling, as well phototransduction pathways, in regulation craniofacial asymmetry. Flatfish have most extreme asymmetric body morphology vertebrates. During metamorphosis, one eye migrates to contralateral side skull, this migration is accompanied by extensive...
Quickly and precisely gain genetically enhanced breeding elites with value-adding performance traits is desired by the crop breeders all time. The present of gene editing technologies, especially CRISPR/Cas9 system capacities efficiency, versatility multiplexing provides a reasonable expectation towards goals. For exploiting possible application to accelerate speed process at technology, in this study, Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation method was used for obtaining tomato ALC...
Flavonoids are widely distributed in plants and play important roles many biological processes. Citrus fruits rich dietary sources of flavonoids. However, there have been very few reports about the comprehensive metabolic profile natural diversity flavonoids different tissues various cultivars. In this study, based on 7416 signals detected with non-targeted metabolomics approach, Principal Component Analysis revealed flavedo has largest differences from other metabolite levels; as 198...
Although the functions of carotenogenic genes are well documented, little is known about mechanisms that regulate their expression, especially those involved in α - and β-branch carotenoid metabolism. In this study, an R2R3-MYB transcriptional factor (CrMYB68) directly regulates transformation α- carotenoids was identified using Green Ougan (MT), a stay-green mutant Citrus reticulata cv Suavissima. A comprehensive analysis developing harvested fruits indicated reduced expression β-carotene...
About one-third of the world's food is lost and wasted each year, along with excessive carbon emission, disposals, other environmental issues. The rotting perishable products like fruits vegetables accounts for largest percentage waste due to their short shelf life. storage atmosphere (H2O, O2, CO2) acts as a key role in preservation process could regulate plants' physiological metabolism microbial growth. In this work, facile biomimetic strategy introduced at room temperature employing PLLA...
Guangchenpi (GCP), which is the peel of Citrus reticulata 'Chachiensis', widely used as an herbal medicine, tea and food ingredient in southeast Asia. Prolonging its aging process results a more pleasant flavor increases profitability. Through integration sensory evaluation with flavoromic analysis approaches, we evaluated correlation between attributes profiles volatiles flavonoids GCP various years. Notably, d-limonene, γ-terpinene, dimethyl anthranilate α-phellandrene were characteristic...
A method of hydride generation atomic fluorescence spectrometry was applied to the determination selenium concentration regular polished rice in China and selenium-enriched obtained by foliar application fertilizer forms selenite selenate. The average content 0.025 ± 0.011 μg g-1. On basis a daily dietary intake 300−500 g suggested Nutrition Society, total from calculated be 7.5−12.5 per person day for an adult. contents were significantly increased 0.471−0.640 g-1 at rate 20 Se ha-1 sodium...
Abstract Background From field harvest to the consumer’s table, fresh citrus fruit spends a considerable amount of time in shipment and storage. During these processes, physiological disorders pathological diseases are main causes loss. Heat treatment (HT) has been widely used maintain quality during postharvest storage; however, limited molecular information related this is currently available at systemic biological level. Results Mature ‘Kamei’ Satsuma mandarin ( Citrus unshiu Marc.)...
Fruit quality is a very complex trait that affected by both genetic and non-genetic factors. Generally, low temperature (LT) used to delay fruit senescence maintain during post-harvest storage but the molecular mechanisms involved are poorly understood. Hirado Buntan Pummelo (HBP; Citrus grandis × C. paradis) were chosen explore citrus lengthy LT using transcriptome proteome studies based on digital gene expression (DGE) profiling two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE), respectively....
Citrus (Citrus spp.), a nonclimacteric fruit, is one of the most important fruit crops in global industry. However, biological behavior citrus ripening and postharvest senescence remains unclear. To better understand process we analyzed data sets from commercial microarrays, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, liquid spectrometry validated physiological quality detection four main varieties genus Citrus. Network-based approaches mining modeling were used to investigate complex molecular...
Genetic manipulation of carotenoid biosynthesis has become a recent focus for the alleviation vitamin A deficiency. However, genetically modified phenotypes often challenge expectation, suggesting incomplete comprehension carotenogenesis. Here, embryogenic calli were engineered from four citrus genotypes as cell models (ECMs) by over-expressing bacterial phytoene synthase gene (CrtB). Ripe flavedos (the coloured outer layer fruits), which exhibit diverse natural patterns, offered comparative...
The molecular genetic mechanisms underlying fruit size remain poorly understood in perennial crops, despite being an important agronomic trait. Here we show that the expression level of a microRNA gene (miRNA172) influences apple. A transposon insertional allele miRNA172 showing reduced associates with large apple breeding population, whereas over-expression transgenic significantly reduces size. was found to be co-located major quantitative trait locus, fixed cultivated apples and their...
Pitaya (Hylocereus polyrhizus) has attracted much interest from consumers as it is a novelty fruit with high nutrient content and tolerance to drought stress. As group of attractive pigment- health-promoting natural compounds, betalains represent visual feature for pitaya quality. However, little information on the correlation between relevant metabolites exists so far. Currently, color (Commission International del'Eclairage, CIE) parameters, betalain contents, untargeted metabolic...
In citrus, lignin overaccumulation in the juice sac results granulation and an unpleasant fruit texture taste. By integrating metabolic phenotyping transcriptomic analyses, we found 702 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), including 24 transcription factors (TFs), to be significantly correlated with content. CgMYB58 was further identified as a critical R2R3 MYB TF involved owing its high transcript levels Huanong Red-fleshed pummelo (HR, Citrus grandis) fruits. Transient expression of led...
Proteins from edible mushrooms have a variety of biological activities. Here, thirteen precious such as Ophiocordyceps sinensis, Ganoderma lucidum, and Morchella esculenta nine common Flammulina velutipes, Pleurotus ostreatus, eryngii, etc., which their proteins were extracted, composition analyzed immunomodulatory activity assessed. Rare are species with higher value medicinal than mushrooms. The results showed that all the different mushroom crude increased proliferation phagocytosis mouse...
