FaNPR3 Members of the NPR1-like Gene Family Negatively Modulate Strawberry Fruit Resistance against .

Strawberry fruit is highly appreciated worldwide for its organoleptic and healthy properties. However, this plant is attacked by many pathogenic fungi, which significantly affect fruit production and quality at pre- and post-harvest stages, making chemical applications the most effective but undesirable strategy to control diseases that has been found so far. Alternatively, genetic manipulation, employing plant key genes involved in defense, such as members of the NPR-like gene family, has been successful in many crops to improve resistance.

A hot-Jupiter progenitor on a super-eccentric retrograde orbit.

Giant exoplanets orbiting close to their host stars are unlikely to have formed in their present configurations. These 'hot Jupiter' planets are instead thought to have migrated inward from beyond the ice line and several viable migration channels have been proposed, including eccentricity excitation through angular-momentum exchange with a third body followed by tidally driven orbital circularization. The discovery of the extremely eccentric (e = 0.

Alphabet Soup of Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty Liner Options-Cruciate Retaining, Posterior Stabilized, Medial Congruent, Medial Pivot: Making Sense of the Options and What the Latest Data Show.

The traditional dual-option debate of cruciate-retaining versus posterior-
stabilized knee arthroplasty designs has evolved into a more complex discussion in recent years. The growing interest and rapid adoption of medial conforming and medial pivot designs has made the original debate surrounding cruciate-retaining versus posterior-stabilized designs more interesting. Each liner option has its own advantages and disadvantages.

A Comprehensive Study of the WRKY Transcription Factor Family in Strawberry.

WRKY transcription factors play critical roles in plant growth and development or stress responses. Using up-to-date genomic data, a total of 64 and 257 WRKY genes have been identified in the diploid woodland strawberry, , and the more complex allo-octoploid commercial strawberry, × cv. Camarosa, respectively.

The Intragenesis and Synthetic Biology Approach towards Accelerating Genetic Gains on Strawberry: Development of New Tools to Improve Fruit Quality and Resistance to Pathogens.

Under climate change, the spread of pests and pathogens into new environments has a dramatic effect on crop protection control. Strawberry ( spp.) is one the most profitable crops of the Rosaceae family worldwide, but more than 50 different genera of pathogens affect this species.
