Rapid and localized programmed cell death, known as the hypersensitive response (HR) is frequently associated with plant disease resistance. In contrast to our knowledge about regulation execution of apoptosis in animal system, information HR limited. Recent studies implicated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade regulating death well several other defense responses during incompatible interactions between plants pathogens. Here, we report generation transgenic <i>Arabidopsis</i>...
Abstract Climate change has the potential to distribution of pests globally and their resistance pesticides, thereby threatening global food security in 21st century. However, predicting where these changes occur how they will influence current pest control efforts is a challenge. Using experimentally parameterised field-tested models, we show that climate over past 50 years increased overwintering range agricultural insect pest, diamondback moth ( Plutella xylostella ), by ~2.4 million km 2...
Plants under stress from both biotic and abiotic sources produce increased levels of ethylene, which is perceived by ethylene receptors triggers cellular responses further downstream. Protein phosphorylation dephosphorylation were implicated in the regulation induction stresses based on studies using protein kinase phosphatase inhibitors. However, kinase(s) involved remains to be determined. Using a conditional gain-of-function transgenic system, we demonstrate that activation SIPK, tobacco...
Maize is one of the world's most widely cultivated crops. As future demands for maize will continue to rise, fields face ever more frequent and extreme weather patterns that directly affect crop productivity. Development environmentally resilient crops with improved standability in field, like wheat rice, was enabled by shifting architecture plants a short stature ideotype. However, such architectural change has not been implemented due unique interactions between gibberellin (GA) floral...
Biochemical and electrolyte parameters play an assistant role for the faster realistic evaluation of multiple organ dysfunction. The present study was designed to investigate changes in serum biochemical Arbor Acres (AA) broiler chickens during acute heat stress. AA (N=120) were randomly allocated four groups: control group at 22 ± 1 °C stress 2 h, 5h 10h, respectively (HS2, HS5, HS10) 38±1°C. All groups parameters, including concentrations sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium, total...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are important players of both transcriptional post-transcriptional gene silencing networks. In order to investigate the functions these regulatory RNAs, a system with high sensitivity specificity is desperately needed quantitatively detect their expression levels in cells tissues. However, short length 19-24 nucleotides strong similarity between related species render most conventional analysis methods ineffective. Here we describe novel...
Using carrot ECP31 cDNA as a probe, we isolated AtECP31 from seed library of Arabidopsis thaliana . The contained an open reading frame 256 amino acids. Its deduced acid sequence showed more than 60% identity with those DCECP31, ZMRAB28 and GHLEA D‐34 which are late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins carrot, maize cotton, respectively. Northern blot analysis that the transcripts accumulated specifically in mature seeds. results suggest cDNA, encodes LEA protein group 5, might be involved...
Hybrid crops produce higher yields than their inbred parents due to heterosis. For high purity of hybrid seeds, it is critical eliminate self-pollination. Manual or mechanical removal male parts (such as detasseling in maize) labor-intensive, fuel and time-consuming, can cause physical damage female plants, resulting significant seed yield reductions. Many male-sterility systems either require a maintainer for male-sterile line propagation are often affected by environmental factors....
Toll like receptors (TLRs) have been a recent focus of drug discovery for cancer immunotherapy. TLRs play crucial role in bridging innate and adaptive immunity. TLR8 is distinguished from other by its functions reversing regulatory T (Treg) cell myeloid derived suppressor (MDSC)'s immune suppression effects. Treg MDSCs induce an immunosuppressive microenvironment that major cause failed tumor Therefore, activation can exert potent immune-mediated anticancer activity. We discovered novel...
