Impacts of P4-ATPase Deletion on Membrane Asymmetry and Disease Development.

Phospholipids exhibit an asymmetrical distribution on the cell membrane. P4-ATPases, type IV lipid flippases, are responsible for establishing and maintaining this phospholipid compositional asymmetry. The essential β subunit CDC50 (also known as TMEM30) assists in the transport and proper functioning of P4-ATPases.

Nematicidal activity of chaetoglobosin A poduced by Chaetomium globosum NK102 against Meloidogyne incognita.

The nematicidal activity of Chaetomium globosum NK102, culture filtrates, and chaetoglobosin A (ChA) purified by HPLC was evaluated on Meloidogyne incognita . The results showed that C. globosum NK102 significantly repelled second-stage juveniles (J2s).

Potential antagonistic effects of nine natural fatty acids against Meloidogyne incognita.

Fatty acids, the essential components of life, were widely present in various seed cakes, gutter oil, and other resources. The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential antagonistic effects of nine fatty acids (FAs) against Meloidogyne incognita (root-knot nematodes). The results showed that butyric, caprylic, capric, lauric, myristic, palmitic, and oleic acids significantly reduced M.
