Wood is an essential renewable raw material for industrial products and energy. However, knowledge of the genetic regulation wood formation limited. We developed a genome-wide high-throughput system discovery validation specific transcription factor (TF)–directed hierarchical gene regulatory networks (hGRNs) in formation. This depends on new robust procedure isolation transfection Populus trichocarpa stem differentiating xylem protoplasts. overexpressed Secondary Wall-Associated NAC Domain...
Members of glycosyltransferase protein families GT8, GT43 and GT47 are implicated in the biosynthesis xylan secondary cell walls Arabidopsis. The Arabidopsis mutant irx8 has a 60% reduction xylan. However, over-expression an ortholog IRX8, poplar PoGT8D, could not restore synthesis. functions tree GT8D genes remain unclear. We identified two GT8 gene homologs, PtrGT8D1 PtrGT8D2, Populus trichocarpa. They only members abundantly specifically expressed differentiating xylem P. transcript...
To examine whether ferulic acid (FA) could protect plants from dehydration stress and to investigate a mechanism for the protection, cucumber seedlings were pretreated with 0.5 mM FA 2 d then exposed induced by 10 % polyethylene glycol 6000. After pretreatment FA, activities of antioxidant enzymes (catalase, superoxide dismutase, quaiacol peroxidase) in leaves higher than under treatment alone which was accordance increased transcript levels respective genes. Moreover, combination reduced...
The aim of this study was to identify efficient plant‐beneficial rhizobacterium that has the potential be developed as biocontrol agent for control wheat soil‐borne diseases. Rhizosphere soil samples were collected from a field located in Taian City. Numerous bacteria isolated and screened antagonistic activity against plant pathogenic fungi by performing dual‐culture assays. Among them, XH‐9 selected its highly others growth‐promoting characteristics. Subsequently, strain identified...
Abstract Aims We aimed to develop a biological agent that regulates the microbial community structure of poplar rhizosphere and alleviates effects continuous cropping. Methods Results Poplar soils were treated with or without Paenibacillus polymyxa CP-S316 fermentation medium. Real-time polymerase chain reaction was performed measure bacteria fungi in both groups, communities analysed by metabarcoding. In fungi, operational taxonomic units, abundance-based coverage estimator Chao index...
Jasmonic acid (JA) is crucial for plant stress responses, which rely on intercellular jasmonate transport. However, JA transporters have not been fully identified, especially in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.). This study reveals that plasma-membrane-localized protein SlABCG9 regulates fruit resistance to Botrytis cinerea. Transcriptomic analysis indicated the expression was significantly upregulated after B. cinerea infection. Assays using Xenopus oocytes, yeast cell sensitivity, and...
Sewage sludge biochar (SSB) is an innovative environmental material with remediation capabilities and significant potential for soil enhancement. This study aimed to accurately assess the dual regulatory effects of SSB on plant growth quality. We conducted potting experiments ryegrass cosmos analyze impacts growth, quality, microbial communities. The partial least squares path model (PLS-PM) analysis was employed elucidate intrinsic relationships between application factors, communities,...
Abstract Staphylococcus aureus was used as an indicator to study the origin and spread of microbial aerosol in around chicken houses. Air samples indoor, upwind (10 50 m), downwind (10, 50, 100, 200, 400 m) four houses were collected using Andersen-6 stages sampler. The concentrations S. determined for every sample site. Isolation from feces performed according standard method. genetic relationship among isolates by profiles PCR-amplified repetitive extragenic palindromic (REP-PCR) elements....

It is well known that oocyte maturation consists of 2 processes: nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation. Nuclear refers to resumption the first meiosis extrusion polar body (PB1), manifested as acquisition ability complete pre-implantation development. Although it recognised energy supply essential for there have been many reports on effect glucose metabolism maturation, studies ooplasmic are limited. In present study, goat oocytes recovered from slaughterhouse ovaries were cultured 24 h in a...
Although crop rotation is a safe and effective measure for improving the soil environment regulating microbial community compositions, its impacts on health ecosystem multifunctionality are not yet well understood. This study involved an eight-year (from 2015 to 2022) field experiment where we compared effects of potato continuous cropping (PP) cropping, specifically potato-forage maize (PFM), potato-oat (PO) potato-beet (PB), multifunctionality. We also assessed contributions properties,...
