ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1) protein interacts with elicitor PvNLP7 from Plasmopara viticola to mediate PvNLP7-triggered immunity.

Revealing the effector-host molecular interactions is crucial for understanding the host immunity against Plasmopara viticola and devising innovative disease management strategies. As a pathogenic oomycete causing grapevine downy mildew, Plasmopara viticola employs various effectors to manipulate the defense systems of host plants. One of these P.

Overexpression of Grapevine Improves Drought Tolerance by Maintaining Photosynthesis and Enhancing the Antioxidant and Osmolyte Capacity of Plants.

Drought stress profoundly affects plant growth and development, posing a significant challenge that is extensively researched in the field. Thioredoxins (TRXs), small proteins central to redox processes, are crucial to managing both abiotic and biotic stresses. In this research, the gene, cloned from wild Yanshan grapes, was validated as a functional TRX through enzyme activity assays.

Integrated mRNA and miRNA transcriptome analysis of grape in responses to salt stress.

Salt stress is an important factor which may negatively affect plant growth and development. High concentrations of Na ions can destroy the ion balance in plant somatic cells, as well as destroying cell membranes and forming a large number of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and other damage mechanisms. However, plants have evolved numerous defense mechanisms in response to the damages caused by salt stress conditions.

Metabolomic Profiling and Assessment of Phenolic Compounds Derived from Vitis davidii Foex Cane and Stem Extracts.

Phenolic extracts from berry seeds have been extensively studied for their health benefits. However, few studies have been conducted on the effects of phenolic extracts from L. canes and berry stems.

Functional analysis of the Nep1-like proteins from .

Necrosis and ethylene-inducing peptide 1 (Nep1) -like proteins (NLP) are secreted by multiple taxonomically unrelated plant pathogens (bacteria, fungi, and oomycete) and are best known for inducing cell death and immune responses in dicotyledonous plants. A group of putative genes from obligate biotrophic oomycete were predicted by RNA-Seq in our previous study, but their activity has not been established. Therefore, we analyzed the () family and identified seven genes.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of .

, a species of grape native to the southern North America, is known for good tolerance against soils with a high content of lime and was almost used for rootstock breeding. Here, we report the complete chloroplast genome of . The chloroplast genome was 161,028 bp in length, harboring a large single-copy region (89,228 bp) and a small single-copy region (19,028 bp) separated by two inverted repeat regions.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of .

is a grapevine rootstock species and widely used in vineyards and in rootstock breeding programs for regions with high nematode populations or saline soils. Here, the complete chloroplast genome of was reported. The length of the chloroplast genome was 160,657 bp with a large single copy region of 89,217 bp, a small single copy region of 19,504 bp and two separated inverted regions of 51,936 bp, respectively.

Sequence variations of the partially dominant DELLA gene Rht-B1c in wheat and their functional impacts.

Rht-B1c, allelic to the DELLA protein-encoding gene Rht-B1a, is a natural mutation documented in common wheat (Triticum aestivum). It confers variation to a number of traits related to cell and plant morphology, seed dormancy, and photosynthesis. The present study was conducted to examine the sequence variations of Rht-B1c and their functional impacts.

[Regulation of plant height by gibberellins biosynthesis and signal transduction].

Plant height is one of the most important agronomic traits that could affect both crop yield and quality. Among all the hormones, gibberellins are crucial to regulate plant height. Cloning and molecular mechanism research of the plant height genes associated gibberellins have extremely important value for the regulation of crop growth and agricultural production, and have been widely used in rice, wheat and other grain crops breeding.
