Strawberry anthracnose caused by spp. has resulted in significant losses in strawberry production worldwide. Strawberry anthracnose occurs mainly at the seedling and early planting stages, and is the main pathogen in North China, where mycelia, anamorphic nuclei, and conidia produced in the soil are the main sources of infection.

Terpenoids are structurally diverse natural products that have been widely used in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industries. Research has shown that fungi produce a variety of terpenoids, yet fungal terpene synthases remain not thoroughly explored. In this study, the gene, a crucial component of the terpene synthetic pathway, was isolated from HB20111 through genome mining.

Article Synopsis
  • Calcium (Ca) is crucial for plant growth, and its deficiency causes physiological issues like tip-burn in Brassiceae crops, highlighting the importance of understanding how Ca transport works in plants.
  • In this study, eight genes related to Ca/H antiporters (BrCAXs) were identified in Chinese cabbage, showing variations in expression across different plant tissues and stress conditions, particularly under heat and calcium deficiency.
  • The research revealed that certain BrCAX genes are crucial for calcium transport, with overexpression of specific genes improving calcium tolerance and indicating a significant link to managing calcium deficiency-related disorders in Chinese cabbage.
