In this study, pathogens of bacterial canker inA. argutaLongcheng No. 2 plants were firstly identified by morphological identification, 16S rRNA andgyrBgene sequence analysis. Then, the species of the pathogen was further identified by specific primers, including Psa F1/R2, Psa F3/R4, Tac F/R...
Although many studies have shown that microbes can ectopically stimulate or suppress plant immune responses, the fundamental question of whether the entire preexisting microbiota is indeed required for proper development of plant immune response remains
Quantitative imaging of apoptosis following oncolytic virotherapy by magnetic resonance fingerprinting aided by deep learning Early apoptotic responses to oncolytic virotherapy in mice can be rapidly detected by chemical-exchange-saturation-transfer magnetic resonance fingerprinting, by leveraging a neural networ...
Rust fungi are biotrophic basidiomycete plant pathogens that cause major diseases on plants and trees world-wide, affecting agriculture and forestry. Their biotrophic nature precludes many established molecular genetic manipulations and lines of research. The generation of genomic resources for these microbes...
This observation is corroborated by studies showing that trg expression is not upregulated during bradyzoite formation (Behnke et al., 2008). In general, it appears that trg is not stage-specific as transcripts are detected during the merozoite (Behnke et al., 2014), oocyst, tachyzoite, ...
While particular strains within the Bacillus species, such as Bacillus subtilis, have been commercially utilised as probiotics, it is critical to implement screening assays and evaluate the safety to identify potential Bacillus probiotic strains before c
During seed establishment, seedlings are subject to attack by several soilborne pathogens, resulting in lack of germination, damping-off or plant death. Poor plant stands due to diseases result in replanting and increased costs. Among the soilborne pathogens impacting soybean are the oomycetes, which...
PGPR strains belonging to this genus are mainly found within the P. fluorescens complex [8]. They are able to inhibit the growth of several bacterial, fungal and oomycete plant pathogens, such as Streptomyces scabies, P. syringae, Fusarium oxysporum, Gaeumannomyces graminis, Rhizoctonia solani, ...
VEX2 foci were disrupted by overexpression of either full-length VEX1 (Fig. 4b) or the probable VEX2-interacting N-terminal fragment (Fig. 4c), but not by the C-terminal fragment (Fig. 4d), with VEX2 foci detected in <25% of nuclei in the former two cases (Fig. 4e). As expected...
byGLOproduces glyoxylate and H2O2, which are known to be involved in plant disease resistance. Therefore,GLOsupposedly may have crucial role in plant disease resistance22,30. Oxalate, biosynthesized by glyoxylate31, plays a positive role in the interaction between plants and pathogens such as...
