1. The flowering stems of all the species examined seem to have certain anatomical characteristics in common, regardless age or photoperiodic classification. 2. In contrast non-flowering stem, stem is characterized by: (1) a less active cambium; (2) zone consisting mainly thick-walled secondary xylem elements lying adjacent cambium rather numerous vessels and thin-walled parenchymatous cells last formed stems; (3) generally thicker walls pericycle, perimedullary zone, xylem, phloem; (4)...

Wheat is an important cereal crop globally and in the United States, largest grown by acreage Colorado. In June 2023, we observed wheat fields displaying severe yellowing virus-like disease symptoms plants across seven eastern Colorado counties (Yuma, Prowers, Kit Carson, Washington, Sedgewick, Morgan, Weld). Symptomatic were prominent appeared bright yellow, with ringspots, mosaic patterning, streaking on leaves. Incidence was sporadic random, a typical cluster of two to four exhibiting...

Summary The interaction between tomato and Pseudomonas syringae pv ( Pst ) is a well‐developed model for investigating the molecular basis of plant immune system. There extensive natural variation in Solanum lycopersicum (tomato) but it has not been fully leveraged to enhance our understanding tomato– pathosystem. We screened 216 genetically diverse accessions cultivated wild species their response three strains . host was investigated using multiple strains, with available genome sequences,...

Plants mount defense responses by recognizing indicators of pathogen invasion, including microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs). Flagellin, from the bacterial Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst), contains two MAMPs, flg22 and flgII-28, that are recognized (Solanum lycopersicum) receptors Flagellin sensing2 (Fls2) Fls3, respectively, but to what degree each receptor contributes immunity whether they promote immune using same mechanisms unknown. Here, we characterized...

Several papers and many references in other manuscripts have dealt with the relation of growth tops roots plants. These generally present data showing effect soil types, moisture or mineral elements upon top-root ratio (2, 4, 10). The idea is quite prevalent some agricultural circles that relative amount on a plant determined, if not controlled, by soil. On hand, there are several factors which can be shown to modify greatly ratio. Among these variety, light intensity (10), photoperiod,...

From observations of the phloem stems a large number plants, some structural differences between flowering and non-flowering plants were noted. There is greater sieve tubes companion cells in than stem, these are generally also larger vegetative stems. Some many crushed. The cambium stem becomes less active parenchyma instead formed. more callose stem. These characteristics have been observed at same time as appearance blossom primordia several species.

The molecular mechanisms acting between host recognition of pathogen effectors by nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptor (NLR) proteins and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascades are unknown. MAPKKKα (M3Kα) activates MAPK leading to programmed cell death (PCD) associated with NLR-triggered immunity. We identified a tomato M3Kα-interacting protein, SlMai1, that has 80% amino acid identity Arabidopsis brassinosteroid 1 (AtBsk1). SlMai1 domain C-terminal...

ABSTRACT Crop genomes accumulated deleterious mutations, a symptom known as the cost of domestication. Precision genome editing has been proposed to eliminate such potentially harmful however, experimental demonstration is lacking. Here, we identified mutation in tomato transcription factor SUPPRESSOR OF SP2 ( SSP2 ), which became prevalent domesticated germplasm and diminished DNA-binding genome-wide targets. We found that acts partially redundant with its paralog SSP regulate shoot...

Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is an important crop worldwide, contributing to about one third of the global caloric intake. In June 2021, leaves with bacterial blight symptoms, including yellow and necrotic lesions running parallel veins, were found in several fields across five counties eastern Colorado (Weld, Morgan, Sedgwick, Baca, Kit Carson). Plants exhibiting these symptoms scattered throughout fields, but appeared consistent counties. To determine causal agent complete Koch's postulates,...

ABSTRACT Several plant viruses encode elements at the 5′ end of their RNAs, which, unlike most cellular mRNAs, can initiate translation in absence a m7GpppG cap. Here, we describe an exceptionally long (739-nucleotide [nt]) leader sequence triticum mosaic virus (TriMV), recently emerged wheat pathogen that belongs to Potyviridae family positive-strand RNA viruses. We demonstrate TriMV drives strong cap-independent both germ extract and oat protoplasts through novel, noncanonical mechanism....
