Summary Lignocellulosic biomass was used for thousands of years as animal feed and is now considered a great sugar source biofuels production. It composed mostly secondary cell walls built with polysaccharide polymers that are embedded in lignin to reinforce the wall structure maintain its integrity. Lignin primary material responsible recalcitrance enzymatic hydrolysis. During plant development, deep reductions cause growth defects often correlate loss vessel integrity adversely affects...
Cost-efficient generation of second-generation biofuels requires plant biomass that can easily be degraded into sugars and further fermented fuels. However, lignocellulosic is inherently recalcitrant toward deconstruction technologies due to the abundant lignin cross-linked hemicelluloses. Furthermore, has a high content pentoses, which are more difficult ferment fuels than hexoses. Engineered plants with decreased amounts xylan in their secondary walls have potential render desirable...
Regulation of grain size is a crucial strategy for improving the crop yield and also fundamental aspect developmental biology. However, underlying molecular mechanisms governing development in wheat remain largely unknown. In this study, we identified atypical basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor, TabHLH489, which tightly associated with length through genome-wide association study map-based cloning. Knockout TabHLH489 its homologous genes resulted increased weight, whereas...
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) represent a class of RNAs. In the study Pseudomonas putida Sneb821-induced tomato resistance to Meloidogyne incognita, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was employed validate 12 lncRNAs in tomato. Among them, lncRNA47258/miR319b/TCP molecular regulatory module likely implicated process against M. incognita. Through application hairy root and virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) technologies for investigation lncRNA47258, it determined that...
Summary The glycosyltransferases ( GT s) are an important and functionally diverse family of enzymes involved in glycan glycoside biosynthesis. Plants have evolved large families s which undertake the array glycosylation reactions that occur during plant development growth. Based on Carbohydrate‐Active enZymes CAZ y) database, genome reference Arabidopsis thaliana codes for over 450 GTs, while rice O ryza sativa ) contains 600 members. Collectively, from these plants can be classified into...
During embryogenesis and organ formation, establishing proper gradient is critical for auxin function, which achieved through coordinated regulation of both metabolism transport. Expression biosynthetic genes often tissue specific regulated by environmental signals. However, the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we investigated transcriptional a key gene, l-Tryptophan aminotransferase Arabidopsis1 (TAA1). A canonical novel Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) response...
Summary Reduced cell wall recalcitrance and increased C6 monosaccharide content are desirable traits for future biofuel crops, as long these biomass modifications do not significantly alter normal growth development. Mixed‐linkage glucan ( MLG ), a polysaccharide only present in grasses related species among flowering plants, is comprised of glucose monomers linked by both β‐1,3 β‐1,4 bonds. Previous data have shown that constitutive production barley Hordeum vulgare ) severely compromises...
TaNHX2, a vacuolar Na+-H+ antiport gene from wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), was transformed into alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation to evaluate the role of energy providers in plant salt stress responses. PCR and Southern blotting analysis showed that target integrated Medicago genome. Reverse transcription-PCR indicated TaNHX2 expressed at transcriptional level. The relative electrical conductivity T2 transgenic plants lower osmotic potential higher...
Root-knot nematodes (RKNs) severely affect plants growth and productivity, several commercial biocontrol bacteria can improve resistance to RKNs. Pseudomonas putida Sneb821 isolate was found induce tomatoes against Meloidogyne incognita. However, the molecular functions behind induced remains unclear. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is considered be a new component that regulates of plant immunity. We lncRNA involved in Sneb821-induced tomato M. Compared with inoculated incognita,...
Root-knot nematodes (RKNs, Meloidogyne spp.) seriously damage tomato production worldwide, and biocontrol bacteria can induce immunity to RKNs. Our previous studies have revealed that Pseudomonas putida strain Sneb821 trigger against M. incognita several long noncoding RNAs microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in this process. However, the molecular functions of miRNAs immune responses remain unclear. In study, deep small RNA sequencing identified 78 differentially expressed plants inoculated...
Small GTPases are monomeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins. In plants, ROPs regulate plant cell polarity, differentiation and development as well biotic abiotic stress signaling pathways. We report the subcellular localization of AtRop1 protein at plasma membrane in tobacco epidermal cells using GFP fusions. Additionally, transient stable expression a dominant negative form (DN) Arabidopsis potato led to H2O2 accumulation associated with reduced Phytophthora infestans Montagne de Bary...
Nitrate not only serves as the primary nitrogen source for terrestrial plants but also a critical signal in regulating plant growth and development. Understanding how responses to nitrate availability is essential improving use efficiency crops. Herein, we demonstrated that basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor TabHLH489 plays crucial negative regulatory role wheat signaling. Overexpressing significantly reduced nitrate-promoted grain yield. Transcriptomic analysis showed...
Silicon (Si) treatment has been shown to reduce the toxicity and accumulation of lead (Pb) in many plants, including rice. The mechanisms responsible for this effect are poorly understood. We investigated effects Si on Pb two rice mutants (lsi1 lsi2) defective uptake their wild types. did not alleviate Pb-induced inhibition root elongation short-term experiments, but reduced types, mutants, long-term experiments. Pre-treatment with concentration xylem sap types mutants. In split-root alter...
