DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that plays important role in animal and plant development. Among the diverse types of modifications, cytosines catalyzed by cytosine methyltransferases (DNMTs) most common. Recently, we characterized methyltransferase genes including HlDnmt1 HlDnmt from Asian longhorned tick, Haemaphysalis longicornis. However, dynamic expression functions these DNMTs at different developmental stages feeding statuses vector tick H. longicornis remain unknown....
Pine wilt disease (PWD), caused by the pine wood nematode (PWN) Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, poses a severe threat to forests worldwide. However, understanding of impact PWD on host microbiome remains limited. This study aimed investigate structure and function fungal community associated with Pinus thunbergii fine roots rhizosphere fungi bacteria tree naturally infected PWN healthy tree. We employed high-throughput sequencing in conjunction functional prediction tools (Functional Annotation...
Fraxinus americana L. (white ash), a native North American tree commonly cultivated for its ornamental qualities, displayed symptoms of leaf spot disease in sentinel garden located Nanjing, Jiangsu, China, 2022. This led to premature shedding, adversely affecting the plant's growth and substantially diminishing value. Potential fungal pathogens were isolated from diseased leaves subsequent application Koch's postulates confirmed pathogenicity isolates (BL-1, BL-2). Through combination...
Rhizosphere microbial communities, regarded as ‘plant second genome’, play a crucial role in sustaining forest ecological function. However, the impact of succession, particularly induced by diseases, on rhizosphere communities remain poorly understood. This study aimed to explore response community and metabolites changes dominant tree species during succession pine wilt disease using Illumina MiSeq liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) technologies. The results showed that...
<abstract><p>In this work, we proposed a new trust region method for solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems. The subproblem with simple form was constructed based on weak secant equations, which utilized both gradient and function values available information from the three most recent points. A modified Metropolis criterion used to determine whether accept trial step, an adaptive strategy update radius. global convergence locally superlinearly of algorithm were...
Abstract Background Epigenetic modifications of histones play important roles in the response eukaryotic organisms to environmental stress. However, many histone acetyltransferases (HATs), which are responsible for acetylation, and their mediating tick cold stress have yet be identified. In present study, HATs were molecularly characterized associations with Haemaphysalis longicornis explored. Methods by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based on published genome sequences, followed...
Root and butt rot, caused by Heterobasidion species, poses a significant threat to coniferous forests in the Northern Hemisphere. Innovative effective strategies are crucial enhance control of this disease. This study aimed at identifying Streptomyces strain, FY4, evaluating its biocontrol potential against H. annosum parviporum. Strain FY4 was identified as blastmyceticus based on morphological, physiological, biochemical characteristics, supported multigene phylogenetic analysis using 16S...
