Transcription of PagMYB147 was induced in poplar infected by Melampsora magnusiana, and a decline in its expression levels increases the host's susceptibility, whereas its overexpression promotes resistance to rust disease. Poplars are valuable tree species with diverse industrial and silvicultural applications. The R2R3-MYB subfamily of transcription factors plays a crucial role in response to biotic stresses.

After morphological identification and molecular phylogenetic analyses, a new genus named and its type species, , were proposed. Phylogenetic analyses were conducted using datasets of nuclear ribosomal DNA 28S large subunit (LSU), mitochondrial (mt) adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) subunit 6 (atp6), and mt small-subunit rDNA (mtSSU).
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAbel is a highly valued woody edible oil tree, which is endemic to China. It has great economic value because seed oil contains a high proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids. anthracnose caused by , poses a serious threat to growth and yield and causes the benefit of the industry to suffer directly.

In this paper, the research object is a high-power pulse transformer using combined insulation, and the operating characteristics are obtained using simulation and experiment methods. The experimental results show that the maximum output voltage of the transformer increases by 30% in the combined insulation.

WRKY transcription factors have specific roles in plant multiple abiotic stress responses. However, it is still not clear that the molecular mechanisms of WRKYs involve in drought tolerance in yellowhorn.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFTea oil camellia () is an important woody oil tree in southern China. However, little is known regarding the molecular mechanisms that contribute to high oleic acid accumulation in tea oil camellia. Herein, we measured the oil content and fatty acid compositions of high- and low-oil tea oil camellia seeds and investigated the global gene expression profiles by RNA-seq.
