Physiological and molecular responses of a resistant and susceptible wheat cultivar to the fungal wheat pathogen Zymoseptoria tritici.

Zymoseptoria tritici is the causal agent of Septoria tritici blotch (STB), one of the most economically destructive wheat foliar diseases. In this study, we explore the physiological and molecular changes elicited in two wheat cultivars with divergent responses (Taichung 29 = susceptible, and Shafir = resistant) upon infection by Z. tritici.

Stb6 mediates stomatal immunity, photosynthetic functionality, and the antioxidant system during the -wheat interaction.

This study offers new perspectives on the biochemical and physiological changes that occur in wheat following a gene-for-gene interaction with the fungal pathogen . The isolate IPO323, carries , while , lacks . The wheat cultivar (cv.

Down-Regulation of CXCR4 in Mesenchymal Stem Cells by Septic Serum.

Background: Sepsis is one of the main concerns of health and one of the leading causes of death in hospitals. It is essential to manage sepsis in hospitalized patients. In recent years, cell therapy has been considered as a new approach to treat sepsis.

Genetic Diversity Assessment of Iranian Kentucky Bluegrass Accessions: II. Nuclear DNA Content and Its Association with Morphological and Geographical Features.

Poa pratensis L. is a perennial turfgrass with high regeneration and fertility, resistance to cold and drought, and quick colonization. By facultative apomixis, this plant can create a wide range of ploidy levels (2n = 22 to 2n = 154), resulting in a wide range of chromosomal numbers and sexual and apomictic reproductive diversity.

Genetic Diversity Assessment of Iranian Kentucky Bluegrass Accessions: I. ISSR Markers and Their Association with Habitat Suitability Within and Between Different Ecoregions.

Poa pratensis L. is a commonly used cool-season turfgrass and endemic to Iran. This research was carried out to examine the genetic diversity of this plant within and between ecoregions of Iran and the impact of climatic variables and elevation on the distribution of its genotypes, as well as habitat suitability modeling.
