A Putative NADPH Oxidase Gene in Unicellular Pathogenic Is Required for Fungal ROS Production and Oxidative Stress Response.

Most previous studies on fungal NADPH oxidases (Nox) focused on multicellular fungi and highlighted the important roles of Nox-derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cellular differentiation and signaling communication. However, there are few reports about Nox in unicellular fungi. A novel ortholog, (named ), in was investigated in this study.

Caffeoyl-coenzyme A O-methyltransferase mediates regulation of carbon flux fluctuations during phenylpropenes and lignin biosynthesis in the vegetative organ roots of Asarum sieboldii Miq.

Asarum sieboldii Miq. possesses remarkable medicinal value due to its essential oil enriched with phenylpropenes (e.g.

[Assay of Tetramethylpyrazine in Szechwan Lovage Rhizome and Cnidium Rhizome by HPLC-DAD-MS].

Objective: To quantity the amount of tetramethylpyrazine in Szechwan Lovage Rhizome (Chuanxiong, the rhizome of Ligusticum chuanxiong Hort., CX) and Cnidium Rhizome(Japanese Chuanxiong, the rhizome of Cnidium officinale Makino, JCX) for quality assessment.

Methods: An HPLC-DAD-MS technique was employed to detect tetramethylpyrazine in 27 CX and 10 JCX samples.
