Heterogeneous Photocatalytic Degradation of Selected Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products (PPCPs) Using Tungsten Doped TiO: Effect of the Tungsten Precursors and Solvents.

Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) which include antibiotics such as tetracycline (TC) and ciprofloxacin (CIP), etc., have attracted increasing attention worldwide due to their potential threat to the aquatic environment and human health. In this work, a facile sol-gel method was developed to prepare tungsten-doped TiO with tunable W/W ratio for the removal of PPCPs.

Screening of Antagonistic Bacillus against Brown Rot in Dendrocalamus latiflorus and Preparation of Applying Bacterial Suspension.

The aim of this study was to isolate biocontrol bacteria that could antagonize brown rot of Dendrocalamus latiflorus, optimize the culture conditions, and develop an effective biocontrol preparation for brown rot of D. latiflorus. This study isolated a bacterium with an antagonistic effect on bamboo brown rot from healthy D.

Root rot Caused by on in Yunnan Province, China.

Star anise ( Hook. f.), a genus of star anise in the family , is an important cash crop of "medicinal and food" origin, mainly from China.

Functional Identification of Effectors Related to × Shoot Blight.

The shoot blight of × caused by made bamboo die in a large area, resulting in serious ecological and economic losses. Dual RNA-seq was used to sequence and analyze the transcriptome data of and × in the four periods after the pathogen infected the host and to screen the candidate effectors of the pathogen related to the infection. After the identification of the effectors by the tobacco transient expression system, the functions of these effectors were verified by gene knockout.

Molecular Mechanisms of Phenylpropane-Synthesis-Related Genes Regulating the Shoot Blight Resistance of × .

shoot blight caused by is a fungal disease that has affected a large area in China in recent years. However, it is not clear which genes are responsible for the disease resistance of × . Based on the analysis of transcriptome and proteome data, two genes, and , which may be involved in disease resistance, were screened.

Differential transcriptome analysis and identification of genes related to resistance to blight in three varieties of .

Background: is a fast-growing bamboo that is widely introduced in southern China and has great economic and ecological benefits. In recent years, a blight of ×  caused by has led to much branch damage and even death of entire bamboo forests.

Methods: To screen for resistance genes in × , transcriptome sequencing technology was used to compare the gene expression profiles of different varieties of ×  with variable resistance and the same varieties under different treatments.

Brown Culm Rot of Dendrocalamus latiflorus Munro Caused by Diaporthe guangxiensis in Sichuan Province, China.

Dendrocalamus latiflorus Munro, the most widely cultivated bamboo species in southern China, has high ornamental value used in gardens, while culms are also used for buildings and as fibers and edibles (Gao et al. 2011). In June 2020, brown culm rot of bamboo was observed in Yibin city, Sichuan Province, in an area of approximately 1000 hectares.

Leaf Spot Disease Caused by on in Sichuan Province, China.

Zanthoxylum schinifolium Sieb. et Zucc, a species of prickly ash, is one of the main economic plants in China and mainly grown in Southwest China. The planting area of Z.

First Report of Causing Black Stem Rot of in China.

Chinese prickly ash ( Maxim.), native to China, is an important tree species for soil and water conservation, barren mountain afforestation, and garden greening. Its fruit is commonly used for seasoning and medicine.

First Report of Causing Blight Disease of a in Sichuan Province, China.

Hsueh et Yi, a species in the Gramineae family, is mainly distributed in southern China and is commonly found in the Sichuan, Yunnan, and Guangdong Provinces and in the Guangxi Autonomous Region. It is economically significant as a building material, a food source, and for applications in various other raw products. In July 2017, a blight disease was found on stems, affecting approximately 40% of 9600 plants in the Changning and Jiangan counties of Sichuan Province, China.
